I Killed You Video (MV)




Tyler, The Creator's "I Killed You" is a powerful examination of how cultural identity can be both a source of pride and a site of conflict. The song utilizes both personal and collective experiences to highlight the tension between societal beauty standards and authentic self-expression.

By metaphorically "killing” these expectations, Tyler advocates for embracing one's true identity, despite societal pressures to conform. Through his lyrics, listeners are encouraged to reflect on their relationships with their heritage and self-image, ultimately reminding us of the courage it takes to reclaim one's beauty and identity in a world that often tries to suppress it.

Tyler, The Creator - I Killed You Lyrics
Official




Your new hot comb go 'round and 'round (go)
Your new blow out go 'round and 'round (give me that)
The three-six waves go 'round and 'round (go, go)
The grease addin' up, it go 'round and 'round

I gotta work, I gotta eat
If they see you on top of me
I gotta leave, bitch, I killed you
Your natural state is threatenin'
To the point that I'm pointin' myself
With self-esteem, bitch, I killed you
No findin' out, a couple knots was a map
We ain't escape in them routes
Right on the scalp, bitch, I killed you
Takin' you out, it's not a game
Full of shame 'til we straighten you out
Without a doubt, bitch, I killed you
You were so essential, how we used to pick you
'Cause you was a simple
Berries and oils, your nature was so simple
But I guess the coils and kinks became an issue
Therefore, bitch, I killed you
Jherries and Mimi, I burnt you, I cut you
I filled you up with Kimmy's
Forced you to relax
You was thick, you was bebe ('round and 'round)
Couldn't take the heat, so you go when they see me
Now, yeah, bitch, I killed you
Aunties, grandmas, sisters, mamas
Darker-skinneded women's conscious
Got you, bitch, they killed you
Uncles, daddies, brothers, sons
Cut by one, this shit begun early, bitch, I killed you
Mentally stuck, I couldn't see when you breathe (I couldn't see)
Thought I needed a cut, they f*ck me up, bitch, I killed you
We don't got advantages, we don't match the energy
So it led to damages, ah, to kill you
I gotta work, I gotta eat
If they see you on top of me
Then I'm at piece, bitch, I killed you
You want my crown without the grease, really fine ('round and 'round)
Got the kinks in they mind, they not a ease, bitch, I killed you
Gravity defied, this the element ('round, 'round and 'round)
Call you fragile, so you delicate ('round, 'round and 'round)
You the room, baby, they the motherf*cking elephant
Talkin' 'bout my heritage, I could never ki- (yeah)

Go away
Go, go
Comb that shit
You need to pick that shit out, bitch
Yeah, yeah

Trapped in the back, oh, yeah (where they at?)
Type three, is it type four? (Where they at?)
F*ck it, get down, this is my crown (where they at?)
You got kinks in your mind, boy (where they at?)

Just as beautiful
Just as beautiful
Just as beautiful (everything to you)
Just as beautiful
Just as beautiful
Ooh, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh
Just as beautiful
