SZA - BMF Lyrics



SZA - BMF Lyrics
Official




Young and fine and dark and handsome
The boy from South Detroit keep bossing
And I can't keep my panties from dropping
He's so fly, fly

Going too fast, don't hurt yourself
I can't keep up with all the lies you tell yourself
You kinda cute, but you're playin' too much, don't play yourself
I'm not the one, but we can still pretend this can be my man
You say you feel different when you with me, tell me anything
Compliment my energy, it's different laying next to me
All I ask is don't make me pull up and get to dumping
You know I can't give no f*cks, you know I'm with all the ruckus, can you?

Young and fine and dark and handsome
The boy West side of Compton came walking in
I can't keep my panties from dropping
He's so fly, fly

Ooh, he bossy, ooh, he crip walkin'
Took me to Slauson and he slut me out
And when I got a problem, he get to packing
He 'bout all that action, call him Mr. Handle It
You know I'm hella different from them trickers you been trickin' on
I can be your ride or die, get down your strongest bone
Trust me, boy, I'm good in every hood
Trickin', finna fall in backwards
I'm just tryna show you what it would be like if you my man

Young and fine and dark and handsome
The boy from south of somewhere came walking in
I can't keep my panties from dropping
He's so fly, fly

Blowin' money fast, oh-oh
Tryna make it last
Blowin' money fast, oh-oh
Tryna make it last

Ecstasy is just a pill away
Pop it up or you could screw today
I'm just tryna hear you say my name
Love to play your ruler, be your Jane
You could be my Tarzan, toss me up
Other hoes is lacking, call me up
Know my baby packing, why I'm stuck
That's why he my man

Young and he fine and he tall and he handsome
Talkin' so fine, I might hold it for ransom
Put it in drive, I'm not shy, I might let ya
Cruise all night

Blowin' money fast, oh-oh
Tryna make it last
Blowin' money fast, oh-oh
Tryna make it last

(Show video at the top of the page)


"BMF" (formerly "Boy from South Detroit") is a song by American singer-songwriter SZA from Lana (2024), the reissue of her second studio album SOS (2022). It references Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'", both of which feature a "south Detroit" line, and interpolates the 1960s bossa nova single "The Girl from Ipanema". "BMF" was originally going to feature American singer and rapper Lizzo.

SZA's second studio album, SOS, was released on December 9, 2022. Soon afterward, she made a post on Instagram in which she teased about a possible deluxe edition for the album. Speaking to Variety in August 2023, she revealed that the deluxe edition became a "whole 'nother" project, a reissue she named Lana. It would consist of post-SOS songs alongside some anticipated outtakes that did not appear on the album.

The released version of "BMF" is a solo track, with Lizzo nowhere in the credits. It is a bossa nova song that interpolates "The Girl from Ipanema" (1962), composed by Brazilian musician Antônio Carlos Jobim. Its Stan Getz and Astrud Gilberto rendition is used for the song's hook: "The boy from South Detroit keep bossin' / And I can't keep my panties from dropping." The "south Detroit" lyric references the Journey song "Don't Stop Believin'", which contains the same line. Apart from South Detroit, SZA mentions the Slauson Avenue, a road in Los Angeles. Rob Sheffield of Rolling Stone writes that it may be a tribute to Nipsey Hussle, a rapper raised in the nearby Crenshaw neighborhood and shot dead at the same road.
