Get over Yourself
Kelsea Ballerini Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You saw me drive by your place last Friday
But don't make too much of it it's just on my way home
I didn't see the picture that you posted in this bar
And when I pulled into the parking lot I didn't see your car

You can tell your friend it's all on purpose
That I'm the crazy ex that wrecks your life
But there's no intentions underneath the surface
So don't go reading anything between the lines

'Cause I'm over you and everything that we used to do together
My Saturday nights are brighter I've never felt better
I didn't used to be when I heard you were seeing somebody else
Yeah I'm hoping you're thinking that every move that I'm making
Is just a game that I'm playing because my heart is still breaking
Boy I'm over you, I'm over you

So get over yourself
Yeah
So get over yourself

You think all I do is that about us
And that the new boy I show off is only out of spite
Your're so in your head about it you can't get your heart around it
But boy I'm over you, I'm over you

I'm over you and everything that we used to do together
My Saturday nights are brighter I've never felt better
I didn't used to be when I heard you were seeing somebody else
Yeah I'm hoping you're thinking that every move that I'm making
Is just a game that I'm playing because my heart is still breaking
Boy I'm over you, I'm over you

So get over yourself
Guess what else, took down your pictures down over my shelf
And I don't care enough to hate you so I even wish you well boy

So you can tell your friends I do it all on purpose, yeah
That I'm the crazy ex that wrecks your life

But I'm over you and everything that we used to do together
My Saturday nights are brighter I've never felt better
I didn't used to be when I heard you were seeing somebody else
Yeah I'm hoping you're thinking that every move that I'm making
Is just a game that I'm playing because my heart is still breaking
Boy I'm over you, I'm over you

So get over yourself




Yeah
So get over yourself, 'cause I'm over you, so get over yourself

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Kelsea Ballerini's song "Get Over Yourself" sings about moving on from a past relationship and the emotional struggles that come with it. She addresses her ex's assumptions that she still has feelings for him and that she is purposely trying to ruin his life. She explains that it is not the case and that she has fully moved on, but her ex refuses to believe it.


The first verse talks about how her ex assumed that she drove by his place on purpose, but it was just on her way home. She didn't even see his car in the parking lot or the picture he posted in the bar. Kelsea is trying to make it clear that she is not intentionally following him or keeping tabs on him.


The chorus reinforces her message of moving on and being over the relationship. She emphasizes that her Saturday nights are brighter, and she's never felt better now that she has moved on. She acknowledges that it was hard at first to hear about her ex seeing someone else, but now she knows that it was all for the best.


She also addresses her ex-boyfriend directly in the second verse, pointing out that he is still dwelling on their past relationship while she has moved on. She has no hard feelings towards him, even going as far as to wish him well, but she wants him to get over himself and understand that she has moved on and is no longer interested in him.


In conclusion, "Get Over Yourself" is a powerful anthem of moving on and letting go, even if the other person hasn't moved on yet.
