Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Girl, I know you love me
Even though your parents
They don't fucking trust me
They probably alright though
I know I'm an asshole
No reply to all your texts girl I do you mad cold
Dying to drive but you can't find the keys, now
Looking for God but you're down on your knees, I'm
All that you want but not what you need girl why
Tell me why do you still love me
Why do you love me?
You know you shouldn't love me
Yea you still love me
All your friends tell you they hate me
God I'm fuckin' shady
Couple weeks ago they were inside my sheets naked
Club, so you can Snapchat
Titties out to snap that
I know that you do that shit just hoping for a snapback
Like you're just
Dying to drive but you can't find the keys, now
Looking for God but you're down on your knees, I'm
All that you want but not what you need girl why
Tell me why do you still love me
Why do you love me?
You know you shouldn't love me
Yea you still love me, oh
Why do you need me when you know you don't need me?
It's tearing you apart
I leave you broken and shaken
And you still call me baby
Tell me why do you still love me
Why do you love me?
You know you shouldn't love me
Yea you still love me
In the song "Why" by Bazzi, he sings about a tumultuous relationship between two people. The singer acknowledges that he is not a good person and has made mistakes, but the girl still loves him despite her friends and parents not trusting him. He talks about his past infidelities and how he is not good for her, but she continues to pursue him. The chorus repeats the question of why she loves him even though she knows she shouldn't.
The song tells a story of a toxic relationship that is based on love and obsession rather than compatibility and mutual respect. The girl knows that Bazzi is not the right partner for her, but she cannot help the way she feels. The lyrics describe her as being torn apart by her feelings for him, leaving her broken and shaken. Despite all of this, she continues to call him "baby" and loves him despite all of his flaws.
The song's powerful scatting, combined with his smooth and velvety vocals, adds emotion and depth to the song, touching on the universal concept of loving even when you know you shouldn't. The song also speaks to the idea that sometimes love can be based on something other than logic or reason, and that it is hard to control who we fall for.

Searching for a higher purpose, while I am only a temporary distraction

Club, so you can Snapchat
We go to clubs for the purpose of posting on Snapchat
Titties out to snap that
Your friends expose their breasts to take pictures that can be shared on Snapchat
I know that you do that shit just hoping for a snapback
You participate in this behavior in anticipation of me responding on Snapchat
Why do you need me when you know you don't need me?
Why do you rely on me when you are aware that it is unnecessary?
It's tearing you apart
It is causing you emotional pain
I leave you broken and shaken
I cause you to feel damaged and unstable
And you still call me baby
Yet, you continue to refer to me affectionately
