Love Galore
SZA [feat. Travis Scott] Lyrics

I need, I need
The repetition of 'I need' emphasizes how important love is to the singer.

Love, love, love, love 'Long as we got Love, love, love, oh 'Long as we got
As long as they have love, nothing else matters.

Done with these niggas I don't love these niggas I dust off these niggas Do it for fun Don't take it personal
The singer is not interested in a serious relationship and only uses men for pleasure.

Personally, I'm surprised you Called me after the things I said Skrrt, skrrt on niggas (yeah) Skrrt up on niggas Skrrt down, you acting like me
The artist is surprised that the person called them after they explicitly stated they had no interest in commitment. The 'skrrt' sound represents a car driving away from someone. The other person is acting like the artist by not wanting anything serious.

Wasn't more than a summer fling I said farewell You took it well Promise I won't cry over spilled milk (Ooh no, I won't)
The relationship was never meant to last long-term, and it ended amicably. The artist won't dwell on it.

Gimme a paper towel Gimme another Valium Gimme another hour or two Hour with you
The singer wants to spend more time with the other person, even if it means using substances to feel better about it.

Why you bother me when you know you don't want me? (Yeah) Why you bother me when you know you got a woman? (Yeah) Why you hit me when you know you know better? Know you know better Know your crew better than you do
The singer questions why the other person still contacts them even though they aren't looking for a real relationship. The other person is in a committed relationship, so they should know better. The singer implies that they know the other person's friends better than they do.

Call me looking for ya (yeah) I be looking for ya (yeah) Got me looking forward to weekends With you, baby
Both parties continue to seek out each other despite their differences and the lack of a serious bond. They only expect to see each other on weekends.

We do whatever we want Go wherever we want Love however we want It don't matter You'll do whatever I want Get whatever I want Get whatever I need It's about
The artist is in control of the relationship and expects the other person to do whatever it takes to please them.

Should've never gave you my number I did it with you (ooh) Should've never let you hit it I split it with you I regret it
The artist regrets that they gave the other person their number and slept with them. They feel like they should not have gone through with it.

You gots a fetish You gots a problem Now it's a problem, oh no Skrrt, skrrt on bitches (yeah) I don't know these bitches (yeah) Dig dirt on bitches Do it for fun
The singer accuses the other person of having a problem or fetish with sleeping around. The singer views other women as competition and doesn't take their relationship seriously.

Love on my ladies Luh-love to my ladies Uh, dated a few (straight up) Why you bother me? Why you bother me? Why you bother me? (Why you bother me? Yeah) Last time I checked you were the one that left (the one) Me in a wreck, me in a mess (yeah, yeah, yeah) You all I rep, like my side I rep (yeah, side) That's that Mo city That side that you can't come 'round at night, yeah (it's lit)
The artist claims to have dated multiple women in the past, but doesn't have an attachment to any of them. The other person left the artist heartbroken and unnerved. The artist only stands by their neighborhood since the other person and their crew are not welcome there.

You like to get me high You don't want no one beside ya You like when I make fire You say, "La Flame, keep makin' fire" (keep makin' fire) Let me cum inside ya Let me plant that seed inside ya Ass and titties, titties The only thing that stuck with me, with me Only thing that was real Only thing I could feel, you feel me? (Feel me) So why you bother me, why you bother me? (with you, baby) Tryna catch a P.O.V, yeah (with you, baby, with you)
The singer thinks that the other person only values them for their physical attributes and nothing else. They sarcastically question why the other person continues to pursue them if they aren't looking to commit.

Ooh, I came to your city Lookin' for lovin' and licky 'Cause you promised to put it down All up in your city, lookin' for you Searchin' for your light, oh Only thing keeping me from droppin' you right now Right now, love Only thing keepin' me by your side Only thing keepin' me by your side now
The singer traveled to the other person's city for a physical encounter. The other person was supposed to satisfy them, but the singer still cannot let go of them despite the relationship's flaws.

But see Solána, if you don't say something Speak up for yourself They think you stupid You know what I'm saying?
This last line is Travis Scott interjecting while the beat fades out. He tells SZA to be assertive and speak her mind or others will view her as passive and simple-minded.
