Lyrics:

I'm, like, begging for it baby

makes u wanna party, wanna wake up
baby its violence

but u cant see what I see–
Cuz u, haha,
U feed off hurting me, love - hurting me, like,
*sigh*
–

u wanna make me bad

and i like it like that !

u wanna pay me back?

pay me back..

said i like it like that.

~🖤 In Memory of Lauren Valencia 🖤 ~

For anyone curious: the book that was censored out is The Art of War by Sun Tzu. Barnes and Noble literally carries the exact copy she's holding, it's literally a bargain book there. Rather than censor it, that publisher should have teamed with B&N and flaunted the fact that you can purchase this particular edition for like $10 to $15. It's irritating that the cover had to be censored, as it was clearly important in this music video.

[GuppyPal]

Grimes should be an unlockable Mortal Kombat character.

[ohlordy]

Petition to see Grimes dance some more for her videos, I thought she was absolutely stellar in this

[sentosaco]

It actually feels like a contemporary video about the future that is now. There are no weird special effects. Just Grimes wearing Iris van Herpen.

[sjelliott]

That dress is one of the best things I've ever seen.

[bkwskiflwrs]

That dress shes wearing is honestly the most beautiful thing Ive seen lately

[MsYaguro]

The choreography in the beginning hits so hard.

[vivienmartin]

This is gonna be the hottest song at the club on Mars

[andrewcleary]

Nice blend of visions and art angels here, and I can hear how it would flow naturally in the same album as We Appreciate Power.
I am so hype for this album.

[jamesb]

Last week I didn't know who Grimes was. This week she's my #1 on Spotify.

[noahlaughlinmedia]

listening to this song, flying down the freeway, windows down on a hot summer night is an absolute vibe.

[Domestikos]

What a highly underrated production. She is quite amazing.

[ssejnosnikrap]

i watched an interview of her talking about this video and the fact that she said on the day of the shoot everything was going wrong and the set didn't turn out how she wanted, yet here i am watching this video for the 100th time bc i can't get over the aesthetics, choreography, styling, editing, cinematography etc etc <3

[ArtistNewsDefend]

The aesthetics are so beautiful it almost looks like she’s underwater

[earthgrazer]

I still remember when the book was uncensored. Still love this mv and song SO MUCH.

[Ghostintheeshell]

For some reason i'm completely obsessed with this song. Its like there's some type of mind control going on here. Has literally been on repeat for hours. Someone please help me.

[keke]

i am so hungry for an album. art angels was so long ago, i’ve just been going back to geidi primes visions etc so i have more grimes music to listen to

[noir_chl]

RIP i_o ... thanks for this beautiful collab, hope you still produce graceful melodies like this in heaven for angels

[nes]

i didn't notice the single shot at 3:19 until now, three years later. coincidentally, it's in the part of the song where she's singing "ee-o". that's definitely how a french canadian would pronounce i_o. so sweet of them to drop this easter egg. rave in peace garrett ✨

[Cannibal]

She's so hypnotic and beautiful vocal and facial wise. Like wow. I'm in love fr.
