Background
Lyrically, Banks sings about her self-love and self-hate. It was the last song she wrote for the album. "There's so many meanings to it", she said of the song. "It could be like, 'I fuck with myself', like, 'I mess with myself more than anybody else.' It could be, 'I fuck with myself', kind of like, 'I'm feeling myself.' It means a lot of different things that I think a lot of people can relate to."
Music video
The music video for "Fuck with Myself" was directed by Philippa Price. It was released on Banks's Vevo channel on July 12, 2016. The video starts off showing a naked Banks dancing in front of a broken mirror. Banks is then seen dancing next to a frighteningly realistic mannequin similar to her head. Banks licks, caresses, hits, and smears the mannequin with lipstick. Next cut shows more dancers wearing a mask of her face dancing around her. The video ends with the singer who lights the mannequin on fire.
