GRWM – Lorde
GRWM Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Soap, washing him off my chest
Keeping it light, not overthinking it
Jumping from stone to stone in the riverbed, I guess
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe you’ll finally know who you wanna be
A grown woman in a baby tee
A grown woman, ah-ah, ah-ah
Girl’s a grown woman, ah-ah, ah-ah ([?])
[Chorus]
Wide hips, tooth chipped, ’96
Skin scarred, looking forward
Wide hips, soft lips, my mama’s trauma
Since ’96, been looking for a grown woman
A grown woman
[Verse 2]
Pink galaxy left undressed
2009 me’d be so impressed (So impressed, oh)
Back when the stolen spirits went straight to the head
Maybe you’ll finally know who you wanna be
A grown woman in a baby tee
[Pre-Chorus]
A grown woman, ah-ah, ah-ah
Girl’s a grown woman, ah-ah, ah-ah
[Chorus]
Wide hips, tooth chipped, ’96
Skin scarred, looking forward
Wide hips, soft lips, my mama’s trauma
Since ’96, been looking for a grown woman
A grown woman
A grown woman (Ah)
[Outro]
Been looking for a, looking for a
Been looking for a (A grown woman)
I’ve been looking for a, been looking for a
I can’t find a grown woman
About “GRWM”
“GRWM” from Lorde’s “Virgin” album is a sonically interesting track with “glitchy trap beats” and production described as “one of the most interesting songs on the record.” The title itself is a clever play on the popular “Get Ready With Me” internet trend, but it also carries a deeper, likely double meaning, with fan speculation suggesting it could stand for “Grown Woman.” Lyrically, the song features intimate and vulnerable lines such as “Wide hips, soft lips, my mama’s trauma,” hinting at themes of body image, intergenerational experiences, and the complex journey of female identity within the album’s overall “rebirth” narrative.
