"If You Love Me" is the eleventh track from Lizzo's fourth studio album "Special".
On February 13, 2022, an ad break for the Super Bowl featured Lizzo for the Google Pixel 6. Lizzo agreed to the partnership as the Google Pixel 6 has new technology called “Real Tone” that focuses on capturing everybody’s real skin color, specifically for people of color. In the background of this ad, you can hear Lizzo’s unreleased song, “If You Love Me” playing.
"This was the first song I wrote for the album, and it was something I needed to get off my chest. It’s about all of the times I go onstage and talk to the crowd and am like, ‘You guys show me so much love, so much support, and I want to thank you for supporting a woman who looks like me—a big Black woman from Houston, Texas. If you could show this same energy to people who look like me but who aren’t Lizzo, who aren’t dancing onstage and entertaining you… If you could show it to a woman on the street, show her some love and respect…’ Because historically, that hasn’t been the case. It’s asking: How do we take the time to be kind to ourselves and kind to the person next to us, no matter what they look like or where they come from? How can we take this respect that we give to entertainers and apply it to people in the real world? This is a record that fans who’ve been following me for a long time will get it as soon as they hear it."
