“In My Mind” is a song by Nigerian singer BNXN (formerly known as Buju) from his 2022 album Bad Since ’97. The song features a hopeful and defiant theme, as BNXN uses a Superman/Lois Lane metaphor to address how people are only interested in his fame and try to bring him down.
The lyrics describe a feeling of being misunderstood, with people drawn to BNXN only for his fame. He contrasts this with his internal feeling of being a “Superman,” suggesting a sense of hope and a belief in his own worth despite the external negativity.

[Intro]
Hmm, ohh
[Verse 1]
I admit, maybe we should have taken it gently
You take it to the limit, you dare me baby
Don't tempt me, baby, don't tempt me
I forfeit, attention the other girls give me
I just got a little bit lucky
You could have killed me, could have destroyed me
[Chorus]
'Cause in my mind
I'm Superman and you're Lois Lane
Girl tell me that you feel the same
Take away all my pain
I won't feel ashamed
In your mind, you're only here cause I got fame
And all you do is drag my name
Try to put it all to shame, and it's such a shame
In my mind
I'm Superman and you're Lois Lane
Girl tell me that you feel the same
Take away all my pain
I won't feel ashamed
In your mind, you're only here cause I got fame
And all you do is drag my name
Try to put it all to shame, and it's such a shame
[Verse 2]
Like I dodged a bullet
One could have thought you're a goddess, you're just Anubis
Here's who you remind me of, remember Judas
You never cared bout the love, I wish I knew this
E ro pe mo kere, gbo gbo werey ton she
Ko tele e wale, anytime I'm outside
O ma gbe 'eyan wale, how many unknown guys
To ti gbe won wale, tell me
[Chorus]
'Cause in my mind
I'm Superman and you're Lois Lane
Girl tell me that you feel the same
Take away all my pain
I won't feel ashamed
In your mind, you're only here cause I got fame
And all you do is drag my name
Try to put it all to shame, and it's such a shame
In my mind
I'm Superman and you're Lois Lane
Girl tell me that you feel the same
Take away all my pain
I won't feel ashamed
In your mind, you're only here cause I got fame
And all you do is drag my name
Try to put it all to shame, and it's such a shame
