Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Why is it so hard to just be myself?
I feel like I'm different from everyone else
Yeah, why am I like this? Can somebody please tell me?
I look in the mirror and what do I see?
I don't really know who's looking back at me
I don't even know who I wanna be

I don't need to know who I am yet

I don't need to have a solid plan yet
I don't need to be the same as everyone else
I just need to motherfuckin' love myself

I need to (I need to) I need to love myself
I need to (I need to) I need to love myself
I need to (I need to) I need to love myself
I need to love myself before I love anyone else, yeah

No matter how hard I try or what I do
I just can never fuckin' impress you
So why am I letting what you say get me down?
I spent my whole life thinking I was wrong
And nobody likes me and it's all my fault
But I'm done with that shit, I finally figured out

I don't need to be the same as everyone else
I just need to motherfuckin' love myself

I need to (I need to) I need to love myself
I need to (I need to) I need to love myself
I need to (I need to) I need to love myself
I need to love myself before I love anyone else
I need to, and I don't need your help
I need to (I need to) just fuckin' love myself
I need to, before I love anyone else
I need to (love myself) just fuckin' love myself, oh no

Love myself
Love myself

People are constantly judgin' and eyein'
And plottin' and lyin', so why am I tryin'?
They all gon' talk shit anyway
They're all gon' say what they wanna say
They're all gon' say what they wanna say anyway
That's why I need to

I need to love myself
I need to, I need to, I need to love myself
I need to, I need to love myself
I need to love myself before I love anyone else
I need to, and I don't need your help
I need to (love myself, I need to), I need to just fuckin' love myself

I need to (I need to), before I love anyone else
I need to (love myself) I need to just fuckin' love myself, oh, no

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Olivia O'Brien's song "Love Myself" touch on the struggle of self-acceptance and self-love in a society that constantly judges and scrutinizes us. The first verse reveals the artist's uncertainty about her identity and her place in the world. She questions why she feels so different from others and struggles to find her true self. Looking in the mirror, she feels disconnected from her reflection and unsure of who she wants to be.

However, the chorus provides a powerful solution to this internal conflict. O'Brien acknowledges that she doesn't need to have everything figured out or fit in with everyone else. She simply needs to love herself, flaws and all. The repetition of "I need to love myself" reinforces the importance of this message and serves as a reminder that self-love should always come first.

The second verse continues this theme, as O'Brien realizes that she will never be able to please everyone no matter how hard she tries. She has been consumed by the idea that something is wrong with her and that nobody likes her. But now she is done with that mentality and has finally figured out that it's not about fitting in, it's about embracing who you are.

The final chorus adds a new layer to the message, emphasizing the fact that people will always talk and judge, but that should not stop us from loving ourselves. The use of profanity in "just fuckin' love myself" adds emphasis to the importance of this message and highlights the artist's determination to prioritize self-love above all else.

Overall, "Love Myself" is a powerful anthem for self-acceptance and self-love in a society that often tells us we're not good enough. The repetition of the chorus and use of profanity add emphasis to the importance of prioritizing self-love.

All I need to do is unconditionally embrace and perceive myself as valuable.

It does not matter if your beautiful on the outside it matters how youre on the inside how you feel and how you feel about yourself and the MINDSET matters the most thats how you think how you look at things the world and perceive and things and mostly how you look @ and see yourself insecurity lack of self esteem thinking your ugly lack of self love all comes from the mind

Why does this seem like the "versions of Olivia" portrays the amount of growth she has done in the past and now she's reflecting on her self and decides that no matter how much difficult it is .... She doesn't need validation from others and that self love is the only key that'll give her contentment to her own identity. Just a thought though💆 who else love Olivia❤

to each is own i suppose, just to say that you're "fixing" something about yourself that you don't like or "love" in the context of this song. To truly learn how to love yourself is to be at peace with how you look. I mean....it's not like this girl got surgery to remove acid burns or something worse. Yes, it's gonna be way harder to love yourself when you see an acid burned face in the mirror but alot of surgeries are just for minor things like cheeks and ....noses...Learn to love who you really are on the inside and the superficial details on the outside won't matter.

@Nani-wg1ww

@@oliviagobrien also, that nose bridge was powerful. I'm against cosmetic surgery UNLESS you're getting it to remove burns or something worse. No matter though, the deed is done. Yes you look prettier with a straighter bridge but I also feel like you removed apart of yourself that makes you...you. But again, the deed is done. Don't change yourself up too much, you start disattaching yourself from you if that makes sense...

The question is: did she love herself before she had her nose, chin, jaw, cheeks, teeth & lips surgically altered? Or did all that painful & expensive self-love come later?

It's been 10 years since I've been dealt with multiple traumas in my life & still working on my healing but thanks to God & my therapist/good friend Robin, I think I'm as close as I can get @ the place I'm in my life right now so all I can do is have a lil patience & be content until whatever God & the devil throws @ me next. I'm always praying for a lil break from Mr. Red Horns so he'll finally get off my back for a few years. ha

Your first love should be yourself. You don't need to know who you are as a person yet. Trying to live up to someone else's expectation can destroy you. Personally, a few years ago I looked at myself and hated myself, not because I thought I was ugly, but because I hated my personality and who I was trying to be. That I needed to love myself for me and not what someone wanted me to be.

@merllove9159

We should always love ourselves no matter what people say or think...cause we are beautiful creations from God and he loves us unconditionally. Forgive yourselves no matter what and start fresh again, free yourself from people’s opinions of us and free yourself from negativity

Let this become a mantra that we all adopt and promote! Its message is a bright light shining in dark places.

If I could go back in time and have a chat with my younger self and a few other people: Take responsibility for yourself. Don't expect others to agree with you. Don't get mad if they disagree. Love yourself, but at the same time, do your best to work on self improvement understanding that we don't have to be perfect. Don't judge others. Respect yourself and respect others. Don't give people what they deserve... give them compassion and mercy. Don't hate your imperfections. Somebody loves that imperfect part of you. My buddy had a scar on the edge of his left eye going down over his cheek. Almost looked like a tear drop had cut its way through his skin. He was embarrased about it. EVERYONE thought it made him even more charming. The thing he hated about himself was adored by others. Care for others as you would like others to care for you, even without a reason. Think of others. Have hope. Show love, most especially to those who oppose you. How can you win someone over by hating them? You may not think you can win them over, but you definitely won't if you show hate and anger towards them. Show them care and love, and no matter what you see on the outside, you may be close to winning them over on the inside. Do you like someone who thinks of themselves or who is always opposing? So, be a better version, without reason. You'll be amazed at how many people you'll win over bt simply showing that you care. Love yourself and love others and have hope. Take whatever you see in yourself as hideous and change it into something adorable. There was this guy who was slightly overweight, was not handsome at all, but so many people adored and loved him and I asked myself why. Because when he looked in the mirror, all he saw was excellent possibilities and a person that truly cared for others. There is somebody out there looking for the exact person you are with your beautiful imperfections and if you go and change those superficial imperfections, how will that person, who is perfect for you, be able to find you? I don't mean to say not to take care of yourself and try to live a healthy lifestyle, just don't label yourself as not good enough.Trolls are temperary. Love is a lifetime. Peace.

Ok I'm gonna be honest. 3/4 of the comments are about how pretty she is but you don't need to say that. She's just trying to show her talent, not the way she looks.
Edit: Thanks for the likes! 😊 It's the most I've ever gotten.
Edit 2: Wow! 600 likes??? Didn't think I'd get this many. Thank you guys so much!!

All of y’all watching this it is so empowering it helps when you REALLY hate yourself and you just don’t want to do this anymore or if you’re not ready or not fitting in this is literally what you NEED to do!!!!!
NEVER TRY TO BE WHAT EVERYONE ELSE WANTS YOU TO BE!!!!!!! YOU ARE YOUR OWN PERSON! YOU BE YOU AND NOT CHANGE! BECAUSE YOU ARE PRECIOUS!
I honestly don’t get why people say bad things about people

Coming from someone who just absolutely hates herself because of other people. I never want people to feel how I feel. You are beautiful and worth it. NEVER EVER FORGET THAT NO MATTER WHAT
