Lizzo’s new album, Cuz I Love You, came out on Friday, and it is quite possibly the most feminist and positive album that the world has ever heard. Although there’s definitely a slight exaggeration in there somewhere, Lizzo’s powerful voice combined with her unapologetic lyrics makes Cuz I Love You memorable and, dare I say, iconic. Here’s a taste of some of the most amazing lyrics in Lizzo’s new album.
- “If you feel like a girl, then you real like a girl”
-
Just Lizzo casually and proudly being an LGBTQ+ ally in her song, “Like A Girl.” If you didn’t admire her before, this will definitely change your mind.
- “Only exes that I care about are in my chromosomes”
-
Wise words from Lizzo in “Like A Girl.” Forget about the people who broke your heart; you’re the only one that matters.
- “Love me or hate me/Ooh, I ain’t changing”
-
“Exactly How I Feel” provides words that happen to be simultaneously unapologetic and inspirational: other people’s opinions just don’t matter.
- “I’m like chardonnay, get better over time”
-
Lizzo’s lyrics from “Juice” tell us keep moving forward and to keep improving. You can only go up from where you are right now.
- “True love ain’t something you can buy yourself/True love finally happens when you by yourself”
-
Lizzo preaching self-love, courtesy of “Soulmate,” is honestly the best thing. The only person who can love you completely and fully is you.
