Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She looking at my IG, like, I know that you lurk
Shout out Dolly, this my sad song, i'm just fucking hurt
Gang right beside me, smoking on that earth, yeah
She used to be my GF, aye
I have more whatever fucking he has, yeah
You looking for someone? I could be that, aye
OD off the drugs, i'm in rehab, yeah
I unload the whole clip, pshh, in my brain
Tears falling down my, fucking face
I get excited, when she say "Hey"
You don't feel my pain, but that's okay
I unload the whole clip, pshh, in my brain
Tears falling down my, fucking face
I get excited, when she say "Hey"
I want a new life
Take me out this world, do it tonight
Not calling no hotline, end the call, goodbye
Dont know what to do, with my life
"Ways why you sad?" like you're a fucking reason
I just want some friends, but they mean man
I'm just playing defense, she to keep man
If you fucking need me ima be there
She treat me different, when im off the percs
Dolly this my sad song, im just fucking hurt
She treat me different, when i'm off the percs
She looking at my IG, like, I know that you lurk
Shout out Dolly, this my sad song, i'm just fucking hurt
Gang right beside me, smoking on that earth, yeah
She used to be my GF, aye
I have more whatever fucking he has, yeah
You looking for someone? I could be that, aye
OD off the drugs, i'm in rehab, yeah
You don't feel my pain, but that's okay
I unload the whole clip, pshh, in my brain
Tears falling down my, fucking face
I get excited, when she say "Hey"
You don't feel my pain, but that's okay
I unload the whole clip, pshh, in my brain
Tears falling down my, fucking face
I get excited, when she say "Hey"
The lyrics to Ways's song "Look At Me" detail a tumultuous emotional experience that the artist goes through while dealing with heartbreak, drug use, and loneliness. The first stanza mentions how the artist's demeanor changes when he takes drugs, and his ex-girlfriend lurks on his social media accounts. The artist also pays homage to someone called Dolly, indicating how he is currently in a sad state and smoking weed with his gang as a coping mechanism. The second stanza follows a similar pattern, with the artist describing how he unloads the whole clip (a reference to his emotions) in his brain, and how his tears fall down his face. Even though the artist is going through this intense experience, he still gets excited when his ex-girlfriend says "Hey."
Overall, the lyrics suggest a deep emotional pain that the artist is trying to cope with in unhealthy ways like drug use and ignoring calls for help. He is dealing with loneliness, depression, and confusion as he navigates a breakup without the support of his former friends.
