Lyrics
Ohh yeah
Expressing excitement or agreement.
Whoa, whoa, yeah (I gotcha back)
Reaffirming support, saying "I got your back."
Oh hey (I gotcha back)
Further emphasizing support and reassurance.
I bet the women always wonder how I keep my man
Addressing the curiosity of women about how she maintains her relationship.
They've been trying for so long
Others have tried to understand but have not succeeded.
And still don't understand
Emphasizing the difficulty others have in comprehending the secret.
It's not the things I say, it's the way I say it
It's not just what she says but how she says it that keeps her man committed.
That keeps them locked down, nowhere to go
Her communication style is a key factor in maintaining the relationship.
And on top of that, I let 'em know
Asserting control and making it clear that her partner has no escape.
I'm down for whatever (down), no matter how you act (oh yeah)
Expressing willingness to support her partner in any situation.
You'll never have to worry about a thing
Assuring that her partner won't face any concerns or issues.
I gotcha' back (I got your back)
Reiterating the commitment to having her partner's back.
When no one else is there (baby), with me you can chill
Being there when no one else is available, creating a comforting environment.
'Cause it feels real good
Highlighting the positive feeling when someone supports you.
When you know somebody got's your back
Reaffirming the theme of having someone's back.
(I gotcha back)
Reiterating the commitment to supporting her partner.
I am the type when I find a man I like
Describing her proactive approach when she finds a man she likes.
It's on and poppin', ain't no stoppin'
Expressing enthusiasm and determination in pursuing the relationship.
The things I do for you
Listing the things she does for her partner.
No complications, baby, keep it real
Preferring a straightforward and honest relationship.
Do unto me as I do and everything will be cool
Encouraging mutual respect and reciprocity for a harmonious relationship.
When you find yourself in times of trouble
Referencing a supportive role in times of trouble.
Remember that I'm by your side (I'm by your side)
Reassuring her constant presence and support.
Lean on me when you're not strong, I'll be your friend
Inviting her partner to rely on her during difficult times.
I'll help you carry on
Quoting a supportive attitude and willingness to help.
I'm down for whatever, no matter how you act
Reiterating the unconditional support regardless of her partner's behavior.
You'll never have to worry about a thing
Reassuring her partner about a worry-free relationship.
I gotcha' back (I got your back)
Restating the commitment to having her partner's back.
When no one else is there, with me you can chill
Emphasizing her availability when others are not around.
Because it feels real good
Highlighting the positive feeling of knowing someone supports you.
When you know somebody has got your back (oh yeah)
Reaffirming the theme of having someone's back.
