"I’m young and I don’t want to fall into it too hard right now just because I’m trying to do something with music. I’m trying to do something for people and you need a certain level of focus to achieve that."

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh, wait
Abusing all my authority
Shutting down these sororities
Music is the priority
All the other shit is a minority
Superman, they can't stop me now
Michigan where I was poppin' out
Now I'm in the Hills and I'm poppin' now
I can't take my eyes
Take them off this life
Oh, yeah
My paradigm is to feel alive
If you ever turn your back on me
I'ma turn this thing into a tragedy
And I don't want to end this shit tragically, but
I know things ain't what they tend to be
And I want to feel your energy
I don't want to turn you to an enemy, but
We all want to be somebody
We all want to be anybody
We just want to feel something real
We all want to be somebody
We all want to be anybody
We just want to feel something real
I got somethin' to focus on
They see diamonds, they focus gone
20 years and I'm more than strong
I'm in this thing 'til my pulse is done
Feelin' after like novacane
I feel the sun, I don't see the rain
Found myself and the game was changed
No more sleep and I'm wide awake
If you ever turn your back on me
I'ma turn this thing into a tragedy
And I don't want to end this shit tragically, but
I know things ain't what they tend to be
And I want to feel your energy
I don't want to turn you to an enemy, but
We all want to be somebody
We all want to be anybody
We just want to feel something real
We all want to be somebody
We all want to be anybody
We just want to feel something real
We all want to be, we all want to be
Somebody
We all want to be, we all want to be
Somebody
In this song, Bazzi first talks about how he's abusing his authority and shutting down sororities, emphasizing that his music is his main priority, and everything else is a minority. He then compares himself to Superman, saying that he can't be stopped by bad vibes. He reflects on his journey, starting from Michigan where he first gained popularity, to now, where he resides in the Hills and still going strong. Bazzi admits that he's so enchanted with his life that he can't take his eyes off it. His paradigm is to feel alive, which inspires him to keep going.
In the chorus, Bazzi shares that we all want to be somebody, or anybody, but we all just want to feel something real. He then talks about what he focuses on, highlighting that while others see diamonds, he sees a goal, and he's been in the music industry for over 20 years, which proves that he's well-established. He concludes with a line about being wide awake, reflecting on how he's no longer sleeping and how his dedication has changed the game.
The main message of this song is about wanting to be somebody or anyone and to feel something true. Bazzi has come to a stage in his life where he's seen success, but he still wants to feel something authentic. His career and current status don't define him, and he wants to keep growing as an artist and person.
