In a poignant exploration of self-worth and societal pressures, Ella Eyre delves into the internal struggle of seeking validation from others while yearning for personal authenticity. The lyrics underscore the futility of striving for perfection in the eyes of others, acknowledging that external opinions often lack genuine insight into one's true self. Despite recognizing the superficial nature of public scrutiny, the artist grapples with an ingrained compulsion to care about others' perceptions. This tension manifests in repeated questioning—"Why do I care?"—highlighting the psychological toll of constant self-monitoring and stress 😔. Ultimately, Eyre advocates for a shift towards "careless" living, suggesting that liberation from external judgments can foster inner peace and self-acceptance 🌟.
Careless
Lyrics
Why do I care? Why do I do I care?
Why do I care? Why do I do I
Tryna be perfect, yeah
Perfect in your eyes
I know it ain't worth it, no
But, goddamn, I try
All of these eyes on me, eyes on me
Is it for love, or just eyes on me?
Perfect, yeah
That's not real life
Whatever I say, whatever I do
People gon' talk, ain't nothing new
Whatever they say, whatever they do
Whatever, it don't mean it's true
Why do I care? Why do I do I care?
Why do I care? Why do I do I care?
Why am I checkin' if you're checkin' on me?
All of this stressin' be messin' with me
Why do I care? Why do I do I
Tryna be okay, yeah
With what I got
I ain't tryna showcase, no
Something I'm not, yeah
All of these eyes on me, eyes on me
They never see what's inside
But that's okay, uh
Taught me so much
Whatever I say, whatever I do
People gon' talk, ain't nothing new
Whatever they say, whatever they do
Whatever, it don't mean it's true
Why do I care? Why do I do I care?
Why do I care? Why do I do I care?
Why am I checkin' if you're checkin' on me?
All of this stressin' be messin' with me
Why do I care? Why do I do I care?
I should care less, what you think about me
Careless, you ain't losin' no sleep
I should care less, what you think about me
Why do I do I
Whatever I say, whatever I do
People gon' talk, ain't nothing new
Whatever they say, whatever they do
Whatever, it don't mean it's true
Why do I care? Why do I do I care?
Why do I care? Why do I do I care?
Why am I checkin' if you're checkin' on me?
All of this stressin' be messin' with me
Why do I care? Why do I do I care?
I should care less, what you think about me
Careless, you ain't losin' no sleep
I should care less, what you think about me
Why do I do I
I should care less, what you think about me
Careless, you ain't losin' no sleep
I should care less, what you think about me
Why do I do I care?
(Why do I do I care?)
