NIKI’s song “Focus,” released on August 9, 2024, as part of her highly anticipated album Buzz, delves into the emotional complexities of navigating a one-sided relationship.
The track captures the frustration and confusion that arise when feelings are not reciprocated or when a partner is emotionally unavailable.
Focus NIKI Lyrics
You’re a complicated puzzle
I so badly want to piece together
Just to find my mental strife
Could the big picture maybe
Muffle all the sirens going off
And then my friends can’t say they were right
No, guys, I swear he’s not emotionally unavailable
He’s just traumatized
No, guys, I swear he’s not a lost cause
It’s just he hasn’t met the girl that’ll fix his life (But who am I kidding?)
Your eyes ever-shifting
Something’s always missing
Why can’t you look at what’s in front of you?
Focus for once
What is it that you want?
You probably burst into flames
If you ask yourself that I
Shouldn’t stick around
You got a girl that’s a friend in every town
Who’s the cliché, who’s the clown?
Which one’s me, which one’s you?
Either way it’s true
Wish you’d focus on what’s in front of you right now
Wish you’d focus on what’s in front of you right now
Don’t talk to me about your last date
I’m seething through my smile
I hope she stubs her toe next time she texts
Her name is probably Cecilia
She shops at Aritzia
And has your lips all over her neck
What are the odds that you actually like me, not just the chase?
Probably embarrassingly low
Are you the exception or do I just like your music taste?
I can’t tell, I don’t know
What’s important to you (God knows)
I keep lookin’ for clues (Oh, no!)
Be a big boy and face the fucking truth
Focus for once
What is it that you want?
You probably burst into flames
If you ask yourself that I
Shouldn’t stick around
You got a girl that’s a friend in every town
Who’s the cliché, who’s the clown?
Which one’s me, which one’s you?
Either way it’s true
Wish you’d focus on what’s in front of you right now
Wish you’d focus on what’s in front of you
(Focus for once)
(You know what you want)
