Lyrics:
Boy I think you must be cool cos you use the alien face
Where you are I got no clue might as well be outerspace
Textin me 2 a.m before I go to sleep
Messagin all p.m smileys showing teeth
Using thumbs in lower case duels thats how we communicate
I don't like April fools
Just when you think you know me
I dont play catfish rules
I'd rather stay Emoji
Ah emoji ah ah emoji ahh emoji
I'd rather stay Emoji
Ah emoji ah ah emoji ahh emoji
I'd rather stay Emoji
Even if your screenname's fake drop a pin in google maps
Cos I wont go there anyway you dont have to watch your back
Textin me 2 a.m before I go to sleep
Messagin all p.m smileys showin teeth
Love it when we play this game they should make our lives an app
I don't like April fools
Just when you think you know me
I don't play catfish rules
I'd rather stay Emoji
Ah emoji ah ah emoji ahh emoji
I'd rather stay Emoji
Ah emoji ah ah emoji ahh emoji
I'd rather stay Emoji
Don't wipe this smile off my face
I'd rather stay Emoji
Don't want this fragile heart to break
I'd rather stay Emoji

This Music video is so original, not just you singing along to the song like most artists do, I appreciate the care you put into your videos and how much thought goes into every shot. Both you, the director and the team deserve huge appreciation for this. The Music video is truly a work of art. Excuse me as I spend the rest of my evening deciphering the hidden meanings in the video. Thank you for this Au/Ra x

I think the video symbolises catfishing in a way, she's stuck pretending to be a person she isn't and she ends up completely losing her identity. The people looking in on her could be how she always seems to have an audience online and she doesn't feel she has any real privacy. Seeing as she's putting a false version of herself and projecting a fake personality she disconnects from herself (removing her own face and lying down)
the lights changing could reflect feelings she can't be honest about, and the liquid from her nose could represent who she really is trying to come out. But because of her own insecurities would rather live with the idea of what people think she is and not who she actually IS. Shedding her outside skin is like peeling off the fake and not real.

"This is the main verse of the song, around which the content of the song is built. Au/Ra describes the meaning of this verse as follows: āIād rather keep texting and communicating over the internet where the āsafe zoneā is, than having to be face to face with this person in reality.āāØSo the phrase āstay Emojiā is basically a paraphrase for staying anonymous, as the other person has no other pictures of Au/Ra in his head than the Emojis Au/Ra sent and therefore doesnāt know her true personality, and vice versa. Au/Ra wants to keep it like that, as she is too afraid of not matching the picture the other person has developed of her, and doesnāt want to get her feelings hurt if the other person doesnāt turn out to live up the picture she has built up of him/her." via Genius

The only Emoji Movie we really needed.

Here goes another theory:
Au/Ra wasn't human, an android made in the past mv panic room (she practically wants to be human by grabbing a heart of one of the doctors, held it close to her heart perhaps she thought it'll make her feel like one of us. Confused she went on a killing spree to find more hearts).
In this mv the secret organization who made her somehow locked her in a closed room. Without her knowledge she was left there to be a human attraction. Because it's mesmerizing to see a robot act and tries to be human. Also it can be a dual meaning since she tries to mimic human emotions, she has none in the end. Hence 'Emoji'.
I haven't watch Outsiders yet so that's my current theory for now.

My Theory: Ok so first, the au/ra we see in the beginning is a persona sheās trying to keep up with how the internet wants her to be all āperfectā thatās why the room is so neat and kept pristine, the glitch we see is her trying to escape from this fake her sheās emitting, but she doesnāt regain full control. As the fake her regains control she tries to complete her perfect look with now applying the mascara, yet again another glitch, this time she gains some sort of control and starts to peel at her skin. Which i think is some sort of symbolization of her wearing a mask and acting as some one she isnāt. The ending to the video with the red light flashing is au/ra now realizing sheās being controlled in some sort of way, she realizes she canāt get out of the room, and this takes the mask off, which symbolizes yet again her not being true to who she wants to be, but she realizes this and chooses her view of herself instead of social mediaās view towards her and how they want her. The people watching could symbolize the internet, watching her every move.
Now the title of the song Emoji, I think itās named that because an Emoji has many different meaning depending on which one you use, āIād rather stay emojiā that lyric to me is an implication that au/ra would rather be an emoji even though it has more than one meaning to it, itās staying true to itself, get it?

I've got an 80's feeling in her songs, that makes me feel comfortable.

Brazil loves you Au/Ra š

I feel like the meaning of this video is how the girl has feelings which might be too much for her to handle for example her self esteem how she keeps doing her makeup and then messes up and everything like that. That's why she saids I rather stay emojie or something like that bcuz she doesn't want to keep feeling so many emotion idk this is just what I think

I love the way she says "Google Maps" and it sounds so casual and smooth.

My theory is that at the beginning we see the āemojiā whichever emoji this may be, and then as she begins to peel off her skin we see whatās inside. Most of the emojis people use arenāt what they are actually thinking, and mask a lot of feelings. Iām probably wrong but whatever is going on in this video it is a masterpiece and I lurrrve itā¤ļø

For me this symbolizes how we try to be so much like something weāre not because of societyās standards and we lose our real selves until one day weāll just burst.we r so engraved in what we want to be for other people that we forget ourselves and forget how to love ourselves and instead we love the fake version of us that is why we try to cover up ourselves so bad but one day itāll be too much that we canāt hide anymore.so love ur self no matter what cause ur the only one thatās gonna stick around with u for the whole rideāŗļøš,be confident and donāt expect nothing from others cause one day itāll come back and haunt u as insecuritiesš
