[Verse 1]
Better days are comin’, if no one told you
I hate to hear you cryin’, over the phone, dear
For seven years runnin’, you’ve been a soldier
[Pre-Chorus]
But better days are comin’
Better …
[Verse 1]
There is a promised land waiting for me
Sometimes there’s an ocean that lies in between
I’ll keep on traveling the pathway You’ve been
‘Til I’m right where You want me, that’s …
[Verse 1]
Change came like a hurricane
2020 hit us differently
And even though I didn’t want it
This old life got a hold of me
How to float when there’s no control?
Feeling life or …
[Verse 1: Conan Gray]
Make myself feel more at home
I want to be the guy who loves the girl
The girl in the movies
Well, she don’t want me
She wants him and not …
[Chorus]
All the niggas who played with me who dead, them niggas ain’t want to live (No)
She gave me head and that head was givin’ what it’s supposed to give
I came …
I’m gonna love you
Until you hate me
And I’m gonna show you
What’s really crazy
You should’ve known better
Then to mess with me, heartache
I’m gonna lie to you, I’m gonna lie to you
Gonna lie to you, gonna lie to you
Like a black widow, baby1
This twisted cat and mouse game always starts the same
First we’re both down to play2 then somehow you go astray3
We went from nothing to something, liking to loving
It was us against the world, now we just fucking4
It’s like I loved you so much and now I just hate you
Feeling stupid for all the time that I gave you
I wanted all or nothing for us ain’t no place in between5
By me believing what you say that you never mean
Like It’ll last for ever but now forever ain’t as long
If it wasn’t for you I wouldn’t be stuck singing this song
You was different from my last but now you got a mirror
But as it all plays out I see it couldn’t be clearer
Now sing
You used to be thirsty for me6
But now you wanna be set free7
This is the web, the web that you weave
So baby now rest in peace (It’s all over with now)8
I’m gonna love you
Until you hate me
And I’m gonna show you
What’s really crazy
You should’ve known better
Then to mess with me, heartache
I’m gonna lie to you, I’m gonna lie to you
Gonna lie to you, gonna lie to you
Like a black widow, baby
I’m gonna love you until it hurts
Just to get you I’m doing whatever works
You’d have never met nobody
That will do you how I do ya
That will bring you to your knees
Praise Jesus hallelujah9
Imma make you beg for it, plead for it
Till you feel like you breath for it
Till you do any and everything for it10
I want you to fiend for it
Wake up and dream for it
Till it’s got you gasping for air
And you leave for it
Til then having kids, can check on your mind
And there’s nothing but me on it
Now it’s me time11 believe that
If it’s yours when you want it
I wouldn’t promise I need that
Till I’m everywhere that you be at
I can’t fall back go quick
‘Cause this here is fatal attraction12 so I take it all or I don’t want shit
You used to be thirsty for me
But now you wanna be set free
This is the web, the web that you weave
So baby now rest in peace (It’s all over with now)
I’m gonna love you
Until you hate me
And I’m gonna show you
What’s really crazy
You should’ve known better
Then to mess with me, heartache
I’m gonna lie to you, I’m gonna lie to you
Gonna lie to you, gonna lie to you
Like a black widow, baby
A black widow is a dangerous type of spider notorious for its venomous bite. It is often associated with unsavory women, which is what Iggy Azalea promises to be to both her lover and those competing for her lover’s heart.
“Down to play” means engaging in consensual sexual relations.
“Going astray” refers to walking out of a relationship.
“Just fucking” means that the emotional bond has faded from their relationship.
Iggy Azalea wanted a genuine relationship, not just a “messing around,” casual relationship.
“Thirsty for me” means that Iggy Azalea’s lover was constantly enticed by her.
The imagery of a black widow’s web begins here. Spiders capture their prey in a web, and only the spider has the power to release their prey.
A black widow’s venom is powerful, so Iggy Azalea suggests that her lover just succumb to her decisions regarding their relationship.
These references to the divine seem out of place, but they refer to the verbal noises made during sex.
A black widow is so venomous that begging is the only way its victims might escape its wrath.
Iggy Azalea understands that if she captivates her partner enough, she will be able to control him.
Fatal attraction means that the attraction is so powerful that it becomes a matter of life or death.
