"Heartless" is a popular song by Canadian singer The Weeknd, released in 2019 as a single from his fourth studio album, "After Hours". In 2020, The Weeknd released a remix of the song featuring American rapper Lil Uzi Vert. The song explores themes of love, heartbreak, and emotional detachment.

The song begins with The Weeknd singing, "Never need a bitch, I'm what a bitch needs". These lines suggest that The Weeknd is confident and self-assured, and that he doesn't need anyone to validate him. He also acknowledges the difficulties of love and relationships, as he sings, "Trying to find the one that can fix me/ I've been dodging death in the six-speed".
