Ego
Willy William Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Dis-moi

Miroir
Dis-moi qui est le plus beau
Quitte à devenir mégalo
Viens donc chatouiller mon ego
Allez, allez, allez

Laisse-moi entrer dans ta matrice
Gouter à tes délices
Personne en peut m'en dissuader
Allez, allez, allez

Je ferai tout pour t'accompagner
Tellement je suis borné
Je suis bien dans ma bulle
Allez, allez, allez

Tout est beau, tout est rose
Tant que je l'impose
Dis-moi qui est le plus beau
Allez, allez, allez

Allez, allez, allez

Miroir
Qu'as dont-tu fais de ma tête?
Cette transformation malhonnête
Ce n'est pas ce que je demandais
Allez, allez, allez

Le buzz n'était que factice
Je ne suis plus dans la matrice
Y'a plus personne pour en parler
Allez, allez, allez

Je ferai tout pour récupérer
Ce que je suis en train de gâcher
Enfin sorti de ma bulle
Allez, allez, allez

Tout est beau, tout est rose
Avant que mon ego s'impose
J'ai fini de te regarder
Allez, allez, allez

Allez, allez, allez
Allez, allez, allez

Ego, Ego
Ego, Ego
Ego, Ego, ego-ego, ego-ego, ego-ego, ego-ego
Ego, Ego
Ego, Ego
Yee-ha!

Allez, allez, allez

Allez, allez, allez

Allez, allez, allez

Allez, allez, allez

Allez, allez, allez

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Willy William's song Ego can be interpreted as an exploration of the singer's narcissistic tendencies, as he talks about being obsessed with his own self-image and constantly seeking validation and admiration from others. The first verse starts with an invitation for someone to confirm his belief that he is the most beautiful, even if it means becoming egotistical. The chorus takes on a similar theme, with the singer insisting that everything is perfect as long as he is the one in control, and again asking for affirmation of his beauty.

The second verse seems to suggest that the singer has become disillusioned with his own ego, as he talks about a "malhonnête transformation" that he did not intend to happen. He admits that the buzz around him might have been fake and he is no longer interested in chasing it. He also acknowledges the damage he is doing to himself and vows to change, saying he is "fini de te regarder," which could mean he is finished with the person he was before, or finished looking at himself in the mirror.

Overall, the song seems to be a commentary on the allure and danger of self-obsession, and the consequences that can come from placing too much importance on one's ego. The repetition of the term "Ego" throughout the song is likely meant to emphasize the theme of self-obsession and remind the listener of the central message.
