In an industry often over-saturated with predominantly thin white women singing love songs, Lizzo represents everything that it both lacks and DESPERATELY needs: a talented, unapologetically big and beautiful black woman with songs about self-love and empowerment.
Inspiration just seems to radiate from her, so if you're looking for advice, guidance, or a cute Instagram caption, here are the top five lyrics that you NEED to hear:
"No, I'm not a snack at all, look baby, I'm the whole damn meal." (Juice)
You ARE a whole meal - don't ever think otherwise.
"I am my inspiration." (Water Me)
When you finally start to fall in love with who you are, you begin to see all of the ways you inspire yourself - channel that and you'll rule the world.
"Go on dust your shoulders off, keep it moving." (Good as Hell)
No matter what life throws at you - and it can throw a lot - the power of a hair toss and boss b-tch attitude can see you through some of your hardest times.
"I'ma do my thing, no apologies." (Scuse Me)
Live your BEST life, baby.
"I just took a DNA test, turns out I'm 100% that b-" (Truth Hurts)
OF COURSE, what might be the most iconic lyric of them all is saved for last - the truth can hurt, but nothing can top the feeling when you realize that you really are that b-tch
