Gonna Get Mine
Halestorm Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All my secrets that you weren't supposed to know
But I sleep just fine every single night
'Cause I got a film tape that you will never find
And everybody wants to know what I got going on below
And everybody wants to see, but then then they'll never get all of me
Na, na, nananana, I get what I want and I'm gonna get mine
I'ma get mine, I'ma get mine, I'ma get
I'ma get mine, I'ma get mine
Uninvited to my fantasy
So get the fuck out of my legacy
I'm pleadin' guilty
And my fate's been sentenced
And if had to do it all over
I'd do it, do it, do it, do it again
Na, na, nananana
I get what I want and I'm gonna get mine
Na, na, nananana
Yeah, yeah, I'm doing just fine
I'ma get mine, I'ma get mine, I'ma get
I'ma get mine, I'ma get mine, I'ma get
I'ma get mine, I'ma get mine, I'ma get
I'ma get mine, I'ma get mine, I'ma get
And everybody wants to know what I got going on below
And everybody wants to see, but then they'll never get all of me
Na, na, nananana, I get what I want and I'm gonna get mine
Na, na, nananana, I get what I want and I'm gonna get mine
Na, na, nananana, I get what I want and I'm gonna get mine
Na, na, nananana, I get what I want and I'm gonna get mine
The lyrics of "Gonna Get Mine" by Halestorm seem to be about a person who is not afraid to embrace their sexuality but still holds on to their privacy. The opening lines suggest that the singer has "naked pictures" and "secrets" that they would rather keep hidden, but still sleeps "just fine" knowing that they have control over what information is released to the public. The chorus consisting of "Na na nananana, I get what I want and I'm gonna get mine" repeatedly emphasizes the fact that the singer is determined to fulfil their desires and take control of their own life. The second verse also makes it clear that the singer has no issue with cutting off people who invade their privacy or seek to control their narrative. The line "Uninvited to my fantasy, so get the fuck out of my legacy" demonstrates that the singer is willing to take drastic measures to protect themselves and their choices.
Overall, the song celebrates self-empowerment and owning one's choices. The persona in the song is not interested in living according to societal norms or pleasing others. Instead, they are determined to live their life on their own terms.
