Ur
SZA Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Freedom ain't real, who's sold you that lie?
I ain't buyin' that (buyin' that)
No matter what the price, price (one more time? alright)
So give it up, give it up, mama (mama, mama)
Undo your pants and your bra
See you likin' that (yeah), you must need a slice (slice, slice, slice)
Type A personality (dum dum dum, dum dum dum)
Extrovert, introvert, commonalities
A Type A personality (dum dum dum, dum dum dum)
Just dumb enough to lie to me
You are, you are, you are, you are
You are, you are, you are, you are (we are)
You are, you are, you are, you are (we are)
You are, you are, you are, you are
Superficial, Superwoman
Ain't you tired of that wind in your face? (in your face)
Your skin taste likes brussell sprouts, I swear (sprouts, I swear)
Can't seem to remember your face (remember your face)
So give it up, give it up, papa
Make it make sense to me
I can not go any further, than two steps in front of me
I'm lost here (I'm lost here, I'm lost here)
Dum dum dum, dum dum dum
Dum dum dum, dum dum dum
Dum dum dum, dum dum
(Woah woah, woah woah, woah)
(Woah woah, woah woah)
You are, you are, you are, you are (we are)
Dumb enough to lie to me
You are, you are, you are, you are
(Woah woah, woah woah, woah)
(We are, we are, we are)
(Woah woah, woah woah, woah)
(We are, we are, we are)
The lyrics of "Ur" by sZa address the issue of identity and the struggle to truly know oneself. The first verse talks about the concept of clarity being a state of mind, thus implying that it is subjective and not an objective trait. The second line addresses the falsehood of the idea of freedom, suggesting that it is not real and that someone had sold the concept as a lie. The singer refuses to buy this idea but acknowledges that it comes at a cost, hence the reference to the price.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "you are" in a hypnotic manner, suggesting that the singer is addressing both themselves and the audience. The references to the Type A personality, extroverts, and introverts suggest that these are all labels that people assign themselves or others, but that they are not all-encompassing. The singer suggests that they are "dumb enough to lie" to them, implying that people often present a façade to the world and that it is difficult to penetrate this barrier.
The second verse continues the theme of identity, with references to superficiality and the pressure to conform to societal expectations. The imagery of wind in the face and the taste of brussell sprouts suggest that the singer is tired of the superficial nature of the world and that they want something more substantial. The line "Can't seem to remember your face" is particularly poignant, as it suggests that the singer struggles to remember the faces of those around them, highlighting the issue of identity and recognition.
Overall, "Ur" is a powerful and introspective song that encourages listeners to question their own identity and the labels that they assign to themselves and others.

on Awkward
Time passing
Time, time passing
You wanted to know what the hype was all about
So I came by
Then we fucked a little bit and I was out
Did not say bye
It was worth it (ooh, it was)
I would do it again (hey)
I know you hurt me, but (hey)
This is more than a friendship
Now I made it awkward
Why did you let me do it?
I made it, I make it awkward (hey, hey)
We wasn't ready for it (hey, hey)
But can we still love on each other?
Can we still touch on each other?
Can we still not judge each other?
You know, you know
I make it awkward
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, mmh
I can not love everybody
But you isn't anybody
You look at me difficult
So I let you see my body
Body, body, body
And now we don't speak it all
Now I regret it all
Still, it was worth it
I would do it again
I know you hurt me, but
But this is deeper than friendship now
Let's keep it awkward
I think we're ready for it, yeah, mmh
Let's keep it awkward
I know I'm ready for it, you feel me?
Can we still love on each other?
Can we still touch on each other?
Can we still not judge each other?
