Crazy in love
The song "Crazy in Love" by Beyoncé feat. Jay Z is about being irrationally in love with someone. The first verse starts with B speaking to young, ready listeners. She then talks about how deep she is with her lover, and how she can't make sense of their love. She is looking so "crazy in love" that it is making her act foolishly. Jay Z then comes in with his verse, talking about his success and how he's “cut from a different cloth,” indicating his "crazy" persona.
The chorus repeats throughout the song, expressing the overwhelming feeling of being in love. Beyoncé is hoping for her lover's attention and affection, regardless of how crazy she may seem. This song is about the craziness and fearless nature of being wildly in love – unafraid to show your true and intense emotions, and not caring what others may think.
