Billie Eilish performed the song “What Was I Made For?” from the soundtrack of Barbie. Video has been released.
The emotional song is from the much-anticipated soundtrack of the film “Barbie”, which also stars Nicki Minaj, Ice Spice, Dua Lipa and Sam Smith.
I mean what am I made for
The song’s lyrics express confusion, uncertainty, and a longing for purpose and understanding. Billie looks back to a time when she felt free and confident, but now she feels lost and unsure of her purpose.
What am I made for?
i used to float, now i just fall
I knew but now I’m not sure
what am i made for
What am I made for?
driving, i was a model
Seemed so alive, turns out, I’m not real
just something you paid for
What am I made for?
‘Cause I, I
i don’t know how to feel
but i want to try
i don’t know how to feel
but someday i can
someday i might
mum, mum-mum, ah-ooh
mum-mum-mum, mum-mum, mum-mum
When did it end? all joy
I’m sad again, don’t tell my boyfriend
it’s not what it’s made for
What am I made for?
‘Cause I, ’cause I
i don’t know how to feel
but i want to try
i don’t know how to feel
but someday i can
someday i might
think i forgot how to be happy
something i’m not, but something i could be
something i’ve been waiting for
something i’m made for
something i’m made for
what i was made for song
i used to float, now i fall
I knew it but now I’m not sure
what i was made for
Why was I created?
I wander, I was a role model
I looked so alive it turns out I’m not real
just something you paid for
Why was I created?
why me, why me
i don’t know how to feel
but i want to try
i don’t know how to feel
but one day i can
one day i might
mum, mum-mum, ah-ooh
mm-mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm
When did it end? all the fun
I’m sad again, don’t tell my boyfriend
it’s not made for this
Why was I created?
why me, why me
i don’t know how to feel
but i want to try
i don’t know how to feel
but one day i can
one day i might
I guess I’ve forgotten how to be happy
something i’m not, but something i could be
something i’ve been waiting for
something i’m made for
something i’m made for
