Can't Believe It
Matt Martians Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't you take me as I am?
Leave me thinking I'm stranded?
Love me all the way
You had to stay
Really can't believe it
Gave it all up
Didn't wanna eat it
Threw it all up
Right here where I'm needed
The sacrifice
Really can't believe it
I've seen the light
Yeah!
They don't know what I do Yeah
Lay around and eat mushrooms Yeah
Walk a day in my shoes Yeah
They you'll see, that you always had the option to choose
Really can't believe it
Gave it all up
Didn't wanna eat it
Threw it all up
Right here where I'm needed
The Sacrifice
Really can't believe it
I've seen the light
I found a light that shines in me
You won't take an L from me
Found a light that shines the best




Maybe we can press the
Reset button on our lives

Overall Meaning

In the first verse, Matt Martians expresses his disbelief that someone couldn't accept him for who he is, leaving him feeling abandoned and stranded. He questions why they couldn't love him completely and decide to stay by his side. He also expresses surprise at the fact that he gave everything up for love, only to end up not wanting it anymore. It is as if he threw it all up, metaphorically speaking, in the very place where he was needed the most. He considers this sacrifice and can't believe that he went through with it.


In the second verse, Martians emphasizes that people don't truly understand the extent of what he goes through. He suggests that they should try walking in his shoes for a day, and only then will they realize that they always had the option to choose a different path. Once again, he reflects on the sacrifice he made and expresses disbelief at the situation.


The chorus repeats the same sentiment of giving up everything and being unable to believe it. Martians mentions that he has seen the light, possibly indicating that he has had a realization or understanding about the situation. The repetition amplifies the disbelief and shock he feels at the circumstances he finds himself in.


Finally, in the last verse, Martians states that he has discovered a light within himself, symbolizing hope or a positive change. He asserts that others cannot take a loss from him, implying that he won't let others bring him down or affect him negatively. He has found this light, which shines best in his life, and suggests that maybe they can hit the reset button and start anew. This could be an optimistic and hopeful way to approach life and relationships, leaving behind past mistakes and embracing a fresh start.
