Blind Lyrics
[Verse 1: SZA]
Niggas want me to get ratchet
Niggas want me to attack it
Put the hood on, now they calling me Cassius
Raunchy like Bob Saget
Greedy, I can't pass it
Eating everything, nigga, no fasting
I don't care how much you knew me in the past tense
I ain't no Julia Stiles
This ain't no last dance, way past it, Way
Fucking on my ex 'cause he validate me
Fucking up a check, I don't want no receipt
Might get possessed, let my spirit speak freely
[Pre-Chorus: SZA]
Hey, my past can't escape me
My pussy precedes me
My, my, how the times change
I'm still playing the victim
And you still playing the pick-me
[Chorus: SZA]
It's so embarrassing
All of the things I need living inside of me
I can't see it
It's so embarrassing
All of the love I seek living inside of me
I can't see, I'm blind
[Post-Chorus: SZA]
Blind, blind
Blind, blind
Blind, blind
Blind, blind
Blind, blind
[Verse 2: SZA]
You ain't getting your bitch back
"Calm down, shit could be worse, " never say that
I don't wanna pipe down, rather get payback
Mama told me never shit where you lay at
I don't want righteousness
I hurt too much, I lost too much, I lust too much
I hit my clutch and vroom
Third day, pop out the tomb
I love when you pull your gun at the red light
I like all that violence, give me dysfunction
I like when you come, never stay the whole night
Better when you high, never tell me I'm wrong
[Pre-Chorus: SZA]
'Cause my past can't escape me
My pussy precedes me
My, my, how the times change
You still talking 'bout babies
And I'm still taking a Plan B
[Chorus: SZA]
It's so embarrassing
All of the things I need living inside of me
I can't see it
It's so embarrassing
All of the love I seek living inside of me
I can't see, I'm blind
[Outro: SZA]
Blind, blind
Blind, blind
Blind, blind
Blind, blind
Blind, blind

[Verse 1]
In the first verse, SZA addresses external expectations and pressures placed on her. The use of the term "ratchet" suggests a desire for her to conform to a certain stereotype or behave in a specific way. She plays with the idea of embracing a bold and raunchy persona, drawing attention to the contradictions and expectations placed on her. The mention of eating without fasting and disregarding past judgments indicates a disregard for societal norms and a sense of self-confidence. The reference to Julia Stiles and "last dance" implies a rejection of conformity and a desire to move beyond societal expectations.
[Pre-Chorus]
SZA reflects on the impact of her past, acknowledging that her reputation precedes her. The mention of her "pussy" preceding her suggests the objectification or judgment she may face based on her sexuality. The phrase "playing the victim" hints at a struggle with self-perception and external judgments. The line about still playing the victim and someone else playing the "pick-me" suggests a dynamic where she perceives herself as being chosen rather than choosing.
[Chorus]

The mention of pulling a gun at a red light and enjoying violence and dysfunction adds a layer of intensity to the narrative, hinting at a tumultuous relationship dynamic.
[Pre-Chorus (Reprise)]
The second pre-chorus revisits the theme of SZA's past influencing her present. The mention of talking about babies and taking Plan B indicates a clash between desires and practical considerations. The repetition of the Plan B reference suggests a recurring theme of avoiding certain consequences and responsibilities.
