Song Meaning of Kill Bill by SZA
The song's title comes from the martial arts film duology Kill Bill (2003–2004), which centres on an assassin named the Bride and her murderous mission to get revenge on her former boyfriend. The song's lyrics, which mimic the plot of the movie, talk about SZA's jealousy-fueled desire to kill both his new girlfriend and ex-boyfriend.
Critics praised the song for its honest examination of SZA's raw, furious emotions. Due to the underlying idea of doing whatever it takes for love, many found her murderous dreams to be both excessive and somewhat realistic.
"Kill Bill" was successful on streaming platforms; it peaked at number one in seven countries and made it to the top ten in eight more. SZA's first number one on the Billboard Global 200 was achieved as a result.
Kill Bill lyrics by SZA
I'm still a fan even though I was salty
Hate to see you with some other broad, know you happy
Hate to see you happy if I'm not the one drivin'
I'm so mature, I'm so mature
I'm so mature, I got me a therapist to tell me there's other men
I don't want none, I just want you
If I can't have you, no one should, I might
I might kill my ex, not the best idea
His new girlfriend's next, how'd I get here?
I might kill my ex, I still love him, though
Rather be in jail than alone
I get the sense that it's a lost cause
I get the sense that you might really love her
This text gon' be evidence, this text is evidence
I try to ration with you, no murders or crime of passion
But, damn, you was out of reach
You was at the farmer's market with your perfect peach
Now I'm in the basement, plannin' home invasion
Now you layin' face-down, got me singin' over a beat
I'm so mature, I'm so mature
I'm so mature, I got me a therapist to tell me there's other men
I don't want none, I just want you
If I can't have you, no one will, I (I might)
I might kill my ex, not the best idea
His new girlfriend's next, how'd I get here?
I might kill my ex, I still love him, though
Rather be in jail than alone
I did it all for love (Love)
I did it all on no drugs (Drugs)
I did all of this sober
I did it all for us, oh
I did it all for love (Love)
I did all of this on no drugs (Drugs)
I did all of this sober
Don't you know I did it all for us? (I'm gon' kill your ass tonight)
Oh, I just killed my ex, not the best idea (Idea)
Killed his girlfriend next, how'd I get here?
I just killed my ex, I still love him, though (I do)
Rather be in hell than alone
