Lyrics

Lizzo — Special

Special

Woke up this morning to somebody in a video

Talking about something I posted in a video

If it wasn't me then would you even get offended? Or

Is it just because I'm Black and heavy? Y'all don't hear me though

I've been the same since I've been driving slow on Bissonnet

Call up anybody I know and they would tell you that

Fame is pretty new but I've been used to people judging me

“Special” was last played on 6 March 2026 at NRG Stadium, Houston.
