that bitch by Bea Miller Lyrics Meaning – Unpacking the Bold Feminist Anthems of Today’s Pop Scene
Lyrics
Chasin’ it down the street
I cash in my words like I’m a billionaire
But I don’t have food to eat
And I keep talkin’ like I’m taller than the trees
But my eyes never see much higher than five feet
And I keep on tellin’ everyone the truth
But maybe that’s not the move
And everyone wants to hear a strong opinion
If it’s the same as you
And they say honesty is the best policy
If that were true, don’t think all of my friends would hate me
Society is suckin’ on your dick
And since I got a pussy, I’m a bitch
And since you are a dude, yeah, you can tell the truth
But as soon as I do, I’m a bitch
Society is suckin’ on your dick
And since I got a pussy, I’m a bitch
And since you are a dude, yeah, you can tell the truth
But as soon as I do, I’m a bitch
There was a time, this guy, he tried to tell me
“Men can cheat, women can’t”
Then he proceeded to ask me out on a date
And I fuckin’ laughed
If you’re a woman, you were made to pleasure me
But out in public, hide them shoulders underneath
Society is suckin’ on your dick
And since I got a pussy, I’m a bitch
And since you are a dude, yeah, you can tell the truth
But as soon as I do, I’m a bitch
Society is suckin’ on your dick
And since I got a pussy, I’m a bitch
And since you are a dude, yeah, you can tell the truth
But as soon as I do, I’m a bitch
(If I have to be, I’ma be that bitch)
I’m that motherfuckin’ bitch
(If I have to be, I’ma be that bitch)
You should be suckin’ on my clit
(If I have to be, I’ma be that bitch)
I said, I’m a, I’m a, I’m a bitch
(If I have to be, I’ma be that bitch)
I dare you, stop me
Society is suckin’ on your dick (on your dick)
And since I got a pussy, I’m a bitch (I’m a bitch)
And since you are a dude, yeah, you can tell the truth
But as soon as I do, I’m a bitch
Society is suckin’ on your dick (on your dick)
And since I got a pussy, I’m a bitch (I’m a bitch)
And since you are a dude, yeah, you can tell the truth
But as soon as I do, I’m a bitch
(If I have to be, I’ma be that bitch)
Watch me
(If I have to be, I’ma be that bitch)
I said, I’ll be that bitch
So stop me
Well, that song’s done
Song’s done, you’re done
Fuck! Fuck!
Oh my god! A banger!
Diving into the raw tones of Bea Miller’s ‘that bitch’, one witnesses a socio-cultural exposé wrapped in melodic defiance. Here is a track that doesn’t just skim the surface of gender norms but rather, plummets headfirst into the murky waters of societal expectations and women’s autonomy.
Miller’s ‘that bitch’ is more than an anthem—it’s a fervent rally cry for equality, layered with punk-rock nonchalance and pop sensibility that shatters glass ceilings with a hammer made of hardened, truth-infused lyrics.
The Power Struggle in ‘Pussy’ Versus ‘Dick’
The singer-songwriter doesn’t pull any punches in addressing the double standards of societal treatment based on gender. The terms ‘pussy’ and ‘dick’ are far from filler or shock factor; they symbolize the crux of power disparity woven through everyday interactions.
Miller isn’t just sounding off frustration; she’s painting a vivid picture of imbalance where the same actions yield praise for men but condemnation for women—an ingrained prejudice standard set by patriarchal constructs.
A Laughter in the Face of Absurdity
The anecdote of the would-be suitor’s claim that ‘Men can cheat, women can’t’ followed by the guttural laughter is Miller’s way of highlighting the ridiculousness of gender roles and the unfounded arrogance rooted in toxic masculinity.
It serves as a catalyst within the song to transition from detailed narrative to a universal truth, humor as the vehicle by which Miller rejects and ridicules outdated and offensive ideas.
Unapologetically Claiming Back the Narrative of ‘Bitch’
In reclaiming the word ‘bitch’, Miller manifests an aspect of strength and self-assurance. This verbal reclamation is both a shield and a weapon, a mode to defy the derogatory shackles the term traditionally implies and to wear it as armor.
By becoming ‘that bitch’, if she has to be, Miller refuses to be shamed into silence or passivity. Instead, she forms an identity that is untouchable and fiercely proud.
The Hidden Depth Behind a Melodic Rebellion
Behind the punk-pop beats and the gritty, vibrant production, ‘that bitch’ harpoons a deeper message. It critiques a society that indulges in a superficial celebration of women’s empowerment while perpetuating the same archaic standards that imprison them.
Miller’s song is not just a personal manifesto but also one for the collective. It prods listeners to question their internalized biases and the paradoxical nature of their proclaimed beliefs versus their behaviors.
Lacerating Lyrics That Will Echo in Memory
Lines like ‘You should be sucking on my clit’ are not merely provocative; they are Miller’s method of turning the sexual power dynamic on its head. It’s a call to recognize women’s sexual agency and to challenge the societal habit of reducing them to objects of pleasure.
The unapologetic rawness found in the song’s head-turning phrases constitutes a linguistic rebirth, where being ‘that bitch’ morphs from a pejorative to a potent declaration of defiance.
