Her arrangements, her phrasing, her songwriting, her vocals, her tone, the way she switches her voice up, the FUCKING BRIDGE, wow she's amazing I am a SZA Stan!!!!
I used to sing the hell out of this song when I was 19 working opening shift in a restaurant every day to survive.. five years later and I’ve made it out the trenches and this song still makes me feel some type of way. I love SZA❤
...But she was on Rihanna's album? How can you be underrated and be featured on the first track of a major pop artist's album? And get radio play? She's actually pretty big lol, not underrated at all
SZA is a wonderful singer and a great lyricist, I love that her songs have depth. I think this song is about her struggle to break old habits, like quitting the strip club to work a job at 10AM, or stopping smoking or trying to forget this guy she's still hung up on. But she's having a hard time trying to kick these old habits and start fresh, comparing her struggle to trying to tell time on a broken clock.
In my opinion . If you see the video to this MASTERPIECE the vid is like " located " at a camp which means like the old days ( aka when she or we were o was a kid ). Anyways , when she says is burning day light it means she is trying to like take advantage of the time she is having as a teen almost going to adulthood ( yes ik she is an adult ). And the struggles she says she is having on the song happen mostly when u r an adult . And the tittle of broken clocks i describe it as metaphor of " time passes to fast " . Idk its just the way I. PERSONALLY see it .
what i love the most about this song (and pretty much every song on ctrl) is the honesty and vulnerability it holds. i feel like every song paints a picture of being in a romantic relationship and the feelings you get in the process of that relationship. in this song in particular, you can hear the refusal of being hurt in her voice and how she doesn't have time for negative shit in her life.
I feel like when SZA goes outside little birds and butterflies fly in and around her hair while squirrels follow her wherever she walks, on some Disney movie type shit
these lyrics hit at the perfect time of my life . back in 2021 , working two jobs while going to college at 19 living in my parents house , trying to have everything together especially at a time that felt like a blur cause of COVID . timeless , beautiful song .
revisiting this song during one of the most confusing & challenging times of my life has given me this newfound sense of direction and control so i think i can finally start doing what i want; living for myself again while i have the time 💚
Gurl nah .. “tht u gone make me late to work again!! All tht extra they be talkn about 🙄 and u dnt wanna hear it but u dnt wanna be rude.. 😂 so u stay on the phone just Incase they say sum to make u go off lol 😂
Dead ass man, that's why it's so tough for me to listen all the way thru😂. This was during a rough patch in my relationship before a terrible breakup. Gets me in my feels now💀💀💀.
lost my job, my phone, nearly everything... took me a bit to figure myself out again. Just wanted to say that this is one of the few songs that kept hitting my mind... Still have a beautiful watch my Momma gave me to start my college life. It's on my nightstand and still needs a new battery lol.
She's just so refreshing as an artist. I completely understand why everyone want to just keep her to themselves. But you can't. She's to good, great even. She has to be shared, I mean she just has to.💯
Look, I didn't even have to hear it because when you know that SZA is life, everything she makes is golden and you instantly hit the like button. #autolike
When she completely blows up and more people discover her I will be so disappointed yet so proud! I am so selfish, I don't want anyone else to listen to SZA! Can not wait for the next album!!!
Kaity Kaity I just pray the industry doesn't oversexualize her. career the way they did Nikki, Rihanna, Beyonce ,Lil Kim ETC ...just let Sza Shine Naturally please industry
i like to see it as having a lot of respect for a certain artist, and when they blow up it might fuck with that in ways of the artist doing music that doesnt sync with me anymore because of the industry or the fact that they might feel like having to make music for the fans instead of for themselves. thats why with a lot of artists i like most of the early stuff, cuz its just way more based imo.
Chris Bowers Thanks for that word! Lol I've been looking for a word to describe music like this. Bryson Tiller's Trapsoul gives off the same vibes. The feeling is.. orgasmic lol
So Natural don’t forget about sevyn streeter she writes almost everybody songs but all three are amazing I wish all the new and old r&b singers can collaborate
Now i get what this song is about... Not having time for the b.s. and staying focus or trying to stay busy so you dont have to feel/deal with the heart ache that someone is trying to make you feel. Being sooo busy that you become numb and trying to get back to life and pick up the pieces.
Jasmin or whatever I would lose my mind if they did a collab!!! It would be fire!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 They both are very talented musicians that would make the best music if put together!
Ekine Mounier Nope. I didn't care for her earlier music, but I'm glad to have seen improvement from her. Excited to see how she'll improve even more in the future.

This is on point
SZA so underrated 👑👑🔥
IMVU Colored Productions shes starting to blow up now :(
Yep. Only a matter of time before her music goes straight to shit mainstream, she's stripping and tripping. but thank god old music doesn't die. :-s
Hell yeah
Often times when artists are barely known it means they're either bad as fuck or just too AMAZING for people to appreciate
...But she was on Rihanna's album? How can you be underrated and be featured on the first track of a major pop artist's album? And get radio play? She's actually pretty big lol, not underrated at all

Well put. I like the way you broke that down.

i did not say it is haha. i just mentioned me listening to hiphop/rap
and btw i totally agree
Everything and then sum!!!!!!!!!!!
