Monét Ngo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't know who I wanna be
Don't know who I wanna be
I'm so caught up in my head
Can't see what's in front of me

I said too much said not enough
I said too much all of your love
I said too much said not enough
I said too much all of your love

Feel like a superstar
A lonely ranger
So much time wasted away I
So I went through the valley searching for answers
But I found nothing at all

I don't see myself in the mirror
So cut my hair off will I feel better

I think I'm burning out
I'll slowly fade away
Go to a different place
I don't know what to say
If my time is now
Then kiss me on the mouth
I'll leave it up to you I'll always be around

I said too much said not enough
I said too much all of your love




I said too much said not enough
I said too much all of your love

Overall Meaning

In this song, Monét Ngo expresses her confusion and uncertainty about her identity and purpose in life. She is plagued by indecisiveness and is unable to see what lies ahead of her. She feels like she has said too much and not enough, indicating how unsure she is about her self-expression and communication with others. The repetition of these lines further highlights her inner conflict.


The chorus paints a picture of someone who is both a superstar and a lonely ranger. This is a paradoxical statement that suggests that despite her success and talent, she still feels isolated and alone in her journey. She has gone through a valley in search of answers, but comes out empty-handed. This could be a metaphor for her personal struggles and how she has hit a dead end.


The second half of the song reveals the extent of her confusion and the feeling of detachment from herself. She can't see herself in the mirror, showing how she has lost touch with her identity. She even considers cutting her hair off to see if it will make her feel better. The lyrics "I think I'm burning out, I'll slowly fade away" suggest that she is losing hope and will gradually disappear. However, she leaves room for the possibility of change and ends the song on a hopeful note, saying she'll be around and will leave it up to someone else to decide her future.


Line by Line Meaning

Don't know who I wanna be
I lack vision and direction in life


I'm so caught up in my head
I overthink and struggle to stay present


Can't see what's in front of me
I'm blind to the opportunities around me


I said too much said not enough
I struggle to find balance in communication


I said too much all of your love
I fear that I've said too much and lost your affection


Feel like a superstar
I have moments of confidence and greatness


A lonely ranger
But most of the time I feel isolated and alone


So much time wasted away I
I regret how much time I've spent aimlessly


So I went through the valley searching for answers
I've tried to find meaning and purpose in life


But I found nothing at all
But so far, I haven't found what I'm looking for


I don't see myself in the mirror
I struggle with self-acceptance and self-image


So cut my hair off will I feel better
I hope that making changes to my appearance will help me feel better


I think I'm burning out
I'm exhausted and overwhelmed


I'll slowly fade away
I worry that I'll lose myself


Go to a different place
I want to escape my current situation


I don't know what to say
I struggle with expressing myself


If my time is now
If this is my moment to shine


Then kiss me on the mouth
I want to celebrate and be passionate


I'll leave it up to you I'll always be around
I trust your judgment and will stay loyal
