It's the dog in meDon't care what you say, certain words don't offend mePlease don't forget mePrayed every night in my bed that you missed me

Keke hyena, how you go behind backsRun fast, you a cheetahOh you Lion, all I wanted youCarry it Mariah

It was hard to trustYelling in my head, it was fuck this loveKeep it bean like mugBut you did it for two and you on it like Dugg

Supposed to be the oneI see that it's hard and you don't budgeAdd a T for the budgetNow lost all control for the muppet

I'll stand by the oathI never trust a bitch, and I'll never love aHoe

I'll stand by the oathI never trust a bitch, and I'll never love aHoe

I'll stand by the oathI never trust a bitch, and I'll never love aHoe

I'll stand by the oathI never trust a bitch, and I'll never love aHoe

I'll stand by the oathI never trust a bitch, and I'll never love aHoe

I'll stand by the oathI never trust a bitch, and I'll never love aHoe

All the feelings that I wrote is was metaphorsI told my dad all about you, and I pulled the curtainsHead up in the sky, it's the short circuitHey, hey you have purpose

Why you think like that, you are the purposeGet out my head, kill the serpentQuicksand, quicksand, slowlyQuicksand, quicksand, I've been losing it

I'll stand by the oathI'll stand by the oathI'll stand by the oath

I'll stand by the oathI'll stand by, and stand by, and stand by the oath

12 notes. Tap a highlighted line to read it.

The storyLines 5 to 7

The verse turns three animals into accusations. The laughing scavenger stands for gossip, the fastest cat sounds like a cheater, and the king of the jungle sounds like a liar.

MusicLine 8

Mariah Carey

Mariah Carey's 1994 holiday hit is about wanting one person more than any gift, and the line before borrows that idea. Then her last name turns into a verb.

The storyLine 11

Coffee beans end up in a mug, so bean and mug belong together.

MusicLine 12

42 Dugg

The Detroit rapper signed to Yo Gotti's and Lil Baby's labels. The words right before his name sound like his number.

The storyLines 14 to 15

Add a T to budge and you get budget, and he spells the trick out.

The storyLines 17 to 19

The oath is a vow he made to himself after getting burned: no trust, no love. The hook repeats it like he's trying to convince himself it still holds.

MusicLines 29 to 30

Single Ladies

Beyoncé's 2008 hit says a man who liked her should have married her. He borrows its ring for someone who wants more than he's offering.

MusicLine 39

The Kid LAROI

The Australian singer whose 2021 hit with Justin Bieber is a one-word plea, the same word she keeps saying to him a few lines up. So he asks if that's who she takes him for.

ReferenceLine 40

Shundor

Bengali for beautiful, and a name he calls himself, here in the third person. It's also on Red Lights and Life is Verses.

The storyLine 43

The bases are the old baseball code for how far things go physically, and he casts himself as the pitcher.

BrandLine 44

Hampton Inn

Hilton's midrange hotel chain. He'd book a room just for her.

The storyLines 45 to 48

Here the oath cracks. He admits he's a wreck, that the girl he's with can't replace her, and that he wants her anyway, which is exactly what his vow was supposed to prevent.
