Along with a cover of her own track “Los Ageless,” St. Vincent reimagines Rihanna and SZA’s 2016 track “Consideration” for a Spotify Singles Sessions in 2018.
[Verse 1]
I come fluttering in from Neverland
Time can never stop me, no, no, no, no
I know you tried to
And I came riding in on a pale white horse
Handing out highs to less fortunate
I do advise you
Run it on back
When you're breaking it down for me
'Cause I can't hear you two times
Run it on back, will it ever make sense to me?
[Chorus]
I got to do things my own way, darling
Will you ever let me?
Will you ever respect me? No
Do things my own way, darling
You should just let me
Why you ain't ever let me grow?
[Post-Chorus]
When I look outside my window
I can't get no peace of mind
When I look outside my window
I can't get no peace of mind
[Verse 2]
Let me cover your shit in glitter
I can make it gold, gold
Heard you tryna sell your soul, baby
Word on the street, you run it low lately
I needed you to please give my reflection a break
From the face it's seeing now
Oh, darling, would you please giving my reflection a break
From the pain it's feeling now?
[Chorus]
I got to do things my own way darling
You should just let me
Will you ever respect me? No
Do things my own way, darling
You should just let me
Why you ain't ever let me grow?
[Post-Chorus]
When I look outside my window
I can't get no peace of mind
When I look outside my window
I can't get no peace of mind
[Outro]
Oh, let me know
Get, get, no peace of mind
Let me know

I’m not convinced that the world needed me covering Rihanna, but maybe I needed it. I was approaching this more as, like, a challenge, like, “Can I hit the stuff?” rather than, like, “How can I make this my own?” This is for me; for my pleasure only!
