SZA quotes:

Eternally repeating that cycle of death and rebirth, an existence such as this... truly, mine is what may be called a 'perfect existence'!

I wear boxers all the time. I don't really move like a girl. I mean, unless it's time for me to get dressed or something.

My parents are really conservative. My dad is Muslim, and my mom is the most conservative woman you've ever met. They're very aristocratic in the most quaint suburban way.

I don't listen to my own music, so to me it's awesome that people really like it. I was afraid that it wouldn't connect with everyone. I'm more appreciative than anything.

I tell the truth through music. Other people tend to catch on and agree with my truth and it turns out we are all really similar.

I want people to get out of that nasty habit of needing a label. Every genre for each song is different.

I've always wanted an office job so I can tell someone, "I'm going to take a long lunch," or "I'm out of the office." I don't know why, but I've always seen so much stability in clocking in.

I've kissed death a thousand times before

Singing was more of a hobby, and I was terrified of anyone's opinions. The only reason I kept doing it was because people responded positively, and if they hadn't I don't really know if I'd feel the same. I'm not into fighting for people's affections.

When your parents regulate everything you hear and everything you intake, it forces you to get creative in other ways.
