Don't ask me how I am
Don't ask me about my plans
Just observe what I do
Just watch like everybody else does

Don't pretend to enjoying my company
Don't pretend I'm not crazy
Don't pretend to love me
Don't prete
(Duh duh duh duh duh uh uh)
Don't pretend none of this hurts
And I won't pretend to feel

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to the song "XXX" by XXXTentacion suggest that the artist is jaded and disillusioned with the people around him. He tells his listeners not to bother asking him about himself because they don't truly care to know. The artist wants to be observed and not bothered, as he has grown accustomed to being alone with his own thoughts. He warns people not to pretend to know him or enjoy his company, and not to pretend that they understand his craziness. The message seems to be that people should not judge each other based on limited knowledge or pretend to be someone they're not.


The lyrics to "XXX" appear to capture the intense inner turmoil and frustration that young artists can feel. Given that XXXTentacion was only 19 years old when he released this album, these feelings of isolation and skepticism about others' motives are not uncommon. By emphasizing that people should not pretend to know him or love him, the artist seems to be saying that he has learned from past experiences of being let down or misled. These words may also speak to his wider struggle with fame and the sometimes shallow relationships that come with it.

If you are reading this, you are either a hardcore underground X fan, morbidly depressed, or both. I am sorry you are here but at the same time you are so very blessed to know about such a dreary yet beautiful melody.
