I'm Not Human
XXXTENTACION Lyrics

Bury all your secrets in my skin
The persona offers their body as a place to keep secrets safe, metaphorically implying that they are trustworthy

Come away with innocence
The persona wants another to experience a sense of purity that they have lost and can never regain

And leave me with my sins
The persona acknowledges their own moral failings and accepts the consequences of their actions

Air around me feels just like a cage
The persona feels trapped and restricted, unable to move and be free

Love is just a camouflage for what resembles rage
The persona suggests that the kindness and affection one shows towards another might only be a disguise for repressed anger or hostility

Pain's gon' come, I won't cry
The persona expects to experience suffering but insists that they will not show emotion

Leave my heart out of it
The persona wants to avoid emotional involvement in difficult situations, perhaps to protect themselves

I'm not a human, I'm not a human
The persona identifies as something other than human, perhaps feeling disconnected or alienated from society

Let all your secrets in my skin (oh, yeah)
The persona reiterates their willingness to be a secret-keeper, implying that they value intimacy and trust

I won't even tell my best of friends (shh)
The persona asserts that they are fully committed to keeping secrets confidential, even from those closest to them

I know that I'm not from this earth
The persona asserts their sense of being different or separate from others, both literally and figuratively

And I know deep down you are hurt, but
The persona acknowledges that others may be in pain but does not want to be emotionally affected by it

I wanna be on my own planet
The persona desires to be independent and unique, free from the constraints of others

I wanna be more than a has-been
The persona seeks to attain a higher status or level of achievement than they currently have

'Cause I'm not a human, I'm not a human
The persona reiterates their otherness and difference from humanity

I feel like I need to find my home
The persona feels homesick or displaced, seeking a place where they belong

I feel like I'm just a kind of my own
The persona sees themselves as unique and distinct from others, perhaps feeling isolated or lonely

I'm a translucent, whole different movement
The persona describes themselves as transparent or see-through, emphasizing their uniqueness and singularity

I keep on chasin' you, I am just stupid
The persona acknowledges that their pursuit of others may be irrational or illogical

Lay you down when you go to sleep
The persona offers to care for and protect another, both literally and symbolically

And wipe your eyes every time you weep, oh
The persona offers emotional support and comfort to another in times of distress

Tell you that life is not that deep
The persona wants to reassure another that life is not as serious or difficult as it may seem, perhaps to alleviate their own emotional burden as well

Paintin' pictures that I'm a freak, but I'm not a human
The persona feels misunderstood or stigmatized by others, emphasizing again their sense of separation from humanity

I'm tired of losin', inflictin' my bruises, humans are users
The persona expresses frustration with human nature and relationships, perhaps feeling betrayed or taken advantage of by others
