Black Widow
Black Widow Iggy Azalea Feat Rita Ora Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm gonna love ya
Until you hate me
And I'm gonna show ya
What's really crazy
You should've known better
Than to mess with me honey
I'm gonna love ya, gonna love ya
Gonna love ya, gonna love ya
Like a black widow, baby

This twisted cat and mouse game always starts the same
First we're both down to play then somehow you go astray
We went from nothing to something, liking to loving
It was us against the world, and now we just fucking
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 between
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 were different from my last but now you got it mirrored
But as it all plays out I see it couldn't be clearer
Now sing

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 ya
Until you hate me
And I'm gonna show ya
What's really crazy
You should've known better
Than to mess with me honey
I'm gonna love ya, gonna love ya
Gonna love ya, gonna love ya
Like a black widow, baby

I'm gonna love you until it hurts
Just to get you, I'm doing whatever works
You ain't never met nobody
That will do you how I do ya
That will bring you to your knees
Praise Jesus, hallelujah
Imma make you beg for it, plead for it
Till you feel like you breathe for it
Till you'll do any and everything for it
I want you to fiend for it
Wake up and dream for it
Till it's got you gasping for air And you lean forward
Till they have a CAT scan to check on your mind
And it's nothing but me on it
Now it's me time, believe that
If it's yours and you want it
I want it, promise I need that
Till I'm everywhere that you be at
I can't fall back, go quick
'Cause this here is fatal attraction
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 ya
Until you hate me
And I'm gonna show ya
What's really crazy
You should've known better
Than to mess with me honey
I'm gonna love ya, gonna love ya




Gonna love ya, gonna love ya
Like a black widow, baby

I'm gonna love ya
I will show affection towards you


Until you hate me
I will continue to love you until you can’t anymore


And I'm gonna show ya
I will demonstrate for you


What's really crazy
What's truly insane


You should've known better
You should have been more cautious

Than to get involved with me, dear


Gonna love ya, gonna love ya
I will keep on loving you


Like a black widow, baby
In the manner of a black widow spider, my love will ensnare you


This twisted cat and mouse game always starts the same
This complicated and unpredictable pursuit always begins similarly


First we're both down to play then somehow you go astray
Initially, both parties are willing, but then you seem to lose interest


We went from nothing to something, liking to loving
Our relationship blossomed from nothing to an intense romance


It was us against the world, and now we just fucking
We used to be a united front, but now we just fight and have sex


It's like I loved you so much, and now I just hate you
I used to love you deeply, but now I feel the opposite


Feeling stupid for all the time that I gave you
I regret wasting so much time on you


I wanted all or nothing for us, ain't no place in between
I wanted our relationship to either succeed or fail, with no in-between


By me believing what you say that you never mean
I fell for your words that were never genuine


Like it'll last for ever but now forever ain't as long
I thought we would last forever, but forever is not as long as I thought


If it wasn't for you I wouldn't be stuck singing this song
If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be lamenting and singing this song


You were different from my last but now you got it mirrored
Initially, you seemed unlike my ex, but now you resemble them a great deal


But as it all plays out I see it couldn't be clearer
As events unfold, it becomes more obvious


Now sing
Now sing


You used to be thirsty for me
You used to crave my attention


But now you wanna be set free
But now you desire to be free of me


This is the web, the web that you weave
This is the tangled situation that you have created


So baby now rest in peace (It's all over with now)
So you can now rest in peace because we are through


I'm gonna love ya
I will love you


Until it hurts
Until it causes me pain


Just to get you, I'm doing whatever works
To obtain your affection, I will do whatever it takes


You ain't never met nobody
You have never met anyone like me


That will do you how I do ya
Who will do to you what I will do to you


That will bring you to your knees
Who will reduce you to your weakest state


Praise Jesus, hallelujah
Hallelujah, thank God


Imma make you beg for it, plead for it
I will make you beg and implore for my love


Till you feel like you breathe for it
Until it becomes the very air you breathe


Till you'll do any and everything for it
Until you are willing to do anything for it


I want you to fiend for it
I want you to crave it like an addiction


Wake up and dream for it
I want you to think about it day and night


Till it's got you gasping for air And you lean forward
Until you are suffocating and panting for my love


Till they have a CAT scan to check on your mind
Until the doctors have to check your brain for all the obsession


And it's nothing but me on it
And they find that I am the only thing on your mind


Now it's me time, believe that
Now it's my turn to get what I want, believe that


If it's yours and you want it
If you own something and desire it


I want it, promise I need that
I also want it, and I promise I need it


Till I'm everywhere that you be at
Until I am present everywhere you go


I can't fall back, go quick
I can't retreat or give up on this


'Cause this here is fatal attraction
This is a dangerous attraction that is bound to end poorly


So I take it all or I don't want shit
So I demand everything or nothing at all

LYRICSSSS !!!
I'm gonna love you, until you hate me
And I'm gonna show you, what's really crazy
You should've known better, than to mess with me harder
I'm gonna love you, I'm gonna love you
Gonna love you, gonna love you
Like a black widow, baby
This twisted cat and mouse game, always starts the same
First we're both down to play, then somehow you go astray
We went from nuttin' to somethin', likin' to lovin'
It was us against the world, and now we just fuckin'?
It's like I loved you so much that now I just hate you
Feelin' stupid for all the time that I gave you
I wanted all or nothin' for us, ain't no place in between
Might-might be me believing what you say that you'll never mean
Like it'll last forever, but now forever ain't as long
If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be stuck singing this song
You were different from my last, but now, you've got 'em mirrored
And as it all plays out I see it couldn't be clearer
Now sing...
You used to be, thirsty for me
But now you wanna be set free
This is the web, 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 (right)
And I'm gonna show you (show 'em what? Show 'em what?)
What's really crazy
You should've known better
Than to mess with me harder (it's all over with now)
I'm gonna love you, I'm gonna love you
Gonna love you, gonna love you
Like a black widow, baby
Black, black widow, baby
I'm gonna l-l-l-love you until it hurts
Just to get you I'm doin' whatever works
You had never meet nobody, that'll do ya how I do ya
That'll bring ya to your knees, praise Jesus, hallelujah
That'll make ya beg for it, plead for it
'Til you feel like you breathe for it
'Til you'd do any and every thing for it
I want you to fiend for it, wake up and dream for it
'Til it's got you gaspin' for air, and you lean forward
'Til you have a CAT scan to check on your mind
And there's nothing but me on it (on it, on it)
Now it's me time, believe that
If it's yours when you want it, I want it
Promise I need that
'Til I'm everywhere that you be at, I can't fall back or quit
'Cause this here a fatal attraction, so I take it all or I don't want sh-
You used to be, thirsty for me (right)
But now you wanna be set free
This is the web, 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 (right)
And I'm gonna show you (show 'em what? Show 'em what?)
What's really crazy
You should've known better, than to mess with me harder
I'm gonna love you, I'm gonna love you
Gonna love you, gonna love you
Like a black widow, baby
Bla-bla-black, black widow, baby
