Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I Don′t Think You Can Handle Me And
My Uh My Energy.
Taking Back My Time Cause I'm Gonna,
Be Focusing On Me.
Uhh. I′m A Savage Goddess
Uhh. Baby You Can't Touch This
I Don't Think You Can Handle Me And
Boy.
I Meant Just What I Said,
And No I′m Not Impressed,
You Wanna Be The One
But You′re Just Another One.
Yeah!
You're Bad For My Career
I′m Walking Outta Here
You're Wasting All My Time
So Now I′m Saying Bye.
(Boy Bye.)
I'm Not Crazy.
Don′t Call Me Psycho.
You Tried To Play Me.
But Baby Now I Know.

Be Focusing On Me.
Uhh. I′m A Savage Goddess
Uhh... Baby You Can′t Touch This
I Don't Think You Can Handle Me And
My Uh My Energy.

You Play With All My Fears
But I′m Done With Wasting Tears
Look At This Life I Made
I'm No Longer Afraid.

You Coulda Been My King
But You′re Just Another Fling.
My Bestie By My Side
And Now I'm Screaming Bye.
I′m Not Crazy.
Don't Call Me Psycho.
You Tried To Play Me.

In "Energy," Lizzy Capri is very clear about asserting her independence, self-confidence, and worth. She tells her former lover that he cannot handle her energy and that she is not impressed by his attempts to win her back. She is taking back her time and focusing on herself as a "savage goddess" who cannot be tamed by anyone. Lizzy Capri uses the chorus to emphasize her empowered outlook on life, repeating the phrase "I don't think you can handle me and my uh my energy" as a way of saying that she is too powerful for anyone who tries to hold her back or bring her down.
In the verses, Lizzy Capri chronicles her journey to self-discovery and how she has become comfortable in her own skin. She is not willing to put up with someone who is bad for her career or wastes her time. She has emerged from a painful relationship stronger and more resilient and wants to focus on the things that bring her joy, like spending time with her best friend. In the end, she declares that she is not crazy, but rather in control of her own destiny, and warns anyone who tries to cross her not to call her "psycho."
