Не для меня (Not For Me) Lyrics Meaning

[Интро: Платина]
The intro expresses frustration and emotional exhaustion. The singer feels he can’t keep living or loving the way he has been, despite the external wealth and success he’s achieved. He mentions being surrounded by a materialistic lifestyle, where money is his main focus, and his actions seem to be driven by impulse, like a goblin spinning around without clear direction. This sets the tone for the conflicted emotions in the song.

[Куплет 1: Платина]
In this verse, the singer highlights his superiority over others, bragging about his status and dismissing people around him. He references a woman who was once with another man but is now with him, emphasizing that they are very different. Despite acknowledging that he’s been cruel and hurt her heart for fun, he admits that he enjoys these casual, reckless relationships and can’t help himself.

[Прeдприпeв: Егор Крид]
In the pre-chorus, the singer offers his wealth to a woman, promising to buy her whatever she wants. However, he makes it clear that his heart is reserved for the type of women who don’t love him back and who bring him emotional pain. It shows his detachment and willingness to sacrifice emotional connection for fleeting pleasures.

[Припев: Егор Крид]
The chorus reinforces the theme of emotional detachment. The singer admits that despite being surrounded by women and enjoying the material things he has, the woman he truly desires is not for him. He drowns his feelings with alcohol and remains stuck in this cycle of temporary pleasures, unable to fully commit to her.

[Куплет 2: Егор Крид]
Here, the singer continues to reflect on the impossibility of being with the woman he desires. He feels like they are fundamentally different — his heart is cold, while hers is fiery. He questions whether she’s with him for his money and doubts whether he can ever truly trust her. He confesses that he no longer believes in love and that he’s emotionally incapable of feeling anything genuine again.

[Бридж: Voskresenskii]
In the bridge, the singer acknowledges that he’s not right for the woman. He asks her to leave him alone, fearing the potential heartbreak that might come from getting too close. He admits to not caring about how he feels, but recognizes that his shallow relationships only bring him double the pain in the end.

[Куплет 3: Voskresenskii]
In this verse, the singer describes his own dangerous, rebellious nature, comparing himself to famous figures. He enjoys the physical thrill of his relationships but makes it clear that they mean nothing to him beyond the moment. He feels that being an a$$hole is difficult too, as it involves constant emotional conflict, but he continues down this path.

[Бридж: Voskresenskii]
The singer here reveals his internal struggle. While he engages in casual, physical relationships, he can’t stop thinking about the woman he really wants. He admits it’s hard to sleep with other women and think about her at the same time, but he chooses not to let it bother him anymore, as it’s easier than dealing with emotions.

[Прeдприпeв: Егор Крид]
The pre-chorus is repeated, showing the singer’s cyclical lifestyle. Once again, he offers material things but remains emotionally unavailable, emphasizing that his heart belongs to women who don’t love him, and who ultimately bring him harm.

[Припев: Егор Крид]
The final chorus reinforces the singer’s acceptance of his emotional detachment. Despite having everything — women, wealth, and temporary pleasures — the woman he truly wants is out of his reach. He continues to drink and indulge in the chaos, stuck in the pattern of seeking satisfaction but knowing it will never lead to anything lasting.
