Moments
Lo Tove Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I grew up with a lot of green
Nice things 'round me
I was safe, I was fine

Grew up with a lot of dreams
Plans who to be
None of them know were mine
I love freaks, I don't care if you're a wild one
I love freaks, I don't care if you're a wild one
And me

I, I'm not the prettiest you've ever seen
But I have my moments, I have my moments
Not the flawless one, I've never been
But I have my moments, I have my moments
I can get a little drunk, I get into all the drugs
But on good days I am charming as fuck
I can get a little drunk, I get into all the drugs
But on good days I am charming as fuck

I can be the perfect one
But I'll make you come
And I'm locked in you're mind

You can say I don't belong
That I'm so wrong
I can tell, tell you lie

I love freaks, I don't care if you're a wild one
I love freaks, I don't care if you're a wild one
And

I, I'm not the prettiest you've ever seen
But I have my moments, I have my moments
Not the flawless one, I've never been
But I have my moments, I have my moments
I can get a little drunk, I get into all the drugs
But on good days I am charming as fuck
I can get a little drunk, I get into all the drugs
But on good days I am charming as fuck

Rough around the edges, memories and baggage
You know me
Never play the safe card, when I go I go hard
And now you know

I, I'm not the prettiest you've ever seen
But I have my moments, I have my moments
Not the flawless one, I've never been
But I have my moments, I have my moments
I can get a little drunk, I get into all the drugs
But on good days I am charming as fuck




I can get a little drunk, I get into all the drugs
But on good days I am charming as fuck

Overall Meaning

The song "Moments" by Lo Tove is a powerful anthem about self-acceptance and celebrating one's imperfections. The first verse describes the singer's privileged upbringing surrounded by greenery and nice things, but despite this, they struggle to find their own identity and purpose. The chorus repeats the phrase, "I'm not the prettiest you've ever seen, but I have my moments," which speaks to the idea that even though the singer may not be perfect all the time, they still have times where they shine and are confident in themselves. The second verse delves into the singer's flaws, including their tendency to get drunk and use drugs, but even then, they can be charming and likable.


The bridge of the song emphasizes the singer's rough edges and emotional baggage, highlighting that these are parts of them that cannot be erased but should be embraced. The song ultimately ends on the note that the singer may not be conventionally attractive or perfect, but they are still worthy of love and acceptance.


Overall, "Moments" is a powerful message of self-love and acceptance. It encourages listeners to celebrate their imperfections, to embrace their rough edges, and to recognize that even though they may not be perfect all the time, they still have moments of greatness.

"Why don't you tell me in your own words why you did what you did? Was it the narcotics?"
"Maybe."
"Were you unhappy?"
"No."
"Was it him?"
"No."
"Well then what was it?"
"I don't know what you mean."
"I know what's wrong with you. You're just broken inside. You never did anything right. You're fucked up. Say it with me."
"I'm broken. I never did anything right. I'm fucked up."
"Do you feel better?"


Still relatable, even a year later.

How is she not number one everywhere??!!
This song is so me
Everything she does I relate to
Love how she powers being a women to its fullest!! She makes no excuses

U can tell she hurts and feels out the loop when damn that girl is so gorgeous she should t feel this way

She’s doing what we all want as women
Feeling the truth about how we feel without perversion and respect to all past relationships

I’d love to hear her do rock or blues I reckon she’d be brilliant
I love her so much
I’m straight but I’d marry her
