Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Why you got to play these games
Might as well date myself or
Find someone else
Pay bills and buy my nails
I found my value
I'm moving past you
Your time is past due
Move on I had to
Can't blame myself
You ain't no help
Motivate myself
Escape this cell or
Find someone else
Pay bills and buy my nails
I found my value
I'm moving past you
Lie like you want it
I know you're not honest
Karma is coming for you
Lie like you want it
I know you're not honest
Karma is coming for you
Where's your confidence
You're probably gon lie again
I done had enough of a ain't shit nigga
Had to focus up now my name getting bigger
Got no time for this
Please no narcissists
I done had enough of a ain't shit nigga
Had to double up now my name getting bigger
Bigger
Used to couldn't miss a day without you
Used to couldn't calm myself without you
Used to couldn't miss a night without you
Now I keep myself off of you
Now I'm off on the run
I ain't want you to come
Ain't crashing my fun
Ima need a refund
Can't blame myself
You ain't no help
Motivate myself
Escape this cell or
Find someone else
Pay bills and buy my nails
I found my value
I'm moving past you
Lie like you want it
I know you're not honest
Karma is coming for you
Lie like you want it
I know you're not honest
Karma is coming for you
Where's your confidence
You're probably gon lie again
I done had enough of a ain't shit nigga
Had to focus up now my name getting bigger
Got no time for this
Please no narcissists
I done had enough of a ain't shit nigga
Had to double up now my name getting bigger
Bigger
Used to couldn't miss a day without you
Used to couldn't calm myself without you
Used to couldn't miss a night without you
Now I keep myself off of you
Now I'm off on the run
I ain't want you to come
Ain't crashing my fun
Ima need a refund

Karma is coming for you
Lie like you want it
I know you're not honest
Karma is coming for you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Marie-José Gibon's song "Confidence" express a sense of empowerment and independence after a tumultuous relationship. The song begins with questioning why the other person is playing mind games and suggests that it would be better to be alone or find someone else, who would support the singer financially and emotionally. The lyrics indicate that the singer has realized their own self-worth and is determined to move forward, leaving the other person behind.


The repeated line "Lie like you want it, I know you're not honest, karma is coming for you" highlights the dishonesty and deceitfulness of the other person. The singer acknowledges that they have had enough of a partner who is unreliable and lacking in integrity. As they mature and focus on themselves, they find their name gaining more recognition and success, symbolizing personal growth and achievement.


Throughout the song, the singer reflects on how dependent they used to be on the other person, but now they have found the strength to be independent and not rely on their presence. This is illustrated through the lines "Used to couldn't miss a day without you, now I keep myself off of you, now I'm off on the run, I ain't want you to come." The singer is determined to have fun and enjoy life without the negative influence of their ex-partner.


Overall, "Confidence" is a song about finding empowerment, self-value, and moving on from a toxic relationship. It encourages listeners to prioritize their own happiness and growth, rather than staying in a relationship that brings them down.
