Lyrics

I love you

Expressing love for someone

You bring me so much joy

Describing the joy the person brings

Yes, I love you

Reaffirming love

I could die for

Expressing strong feelings, even to the point of sacrifice

I hate you, yeah

Contrastingly expressing hatred towards the same person


And I feel like you don’t care about me (Yeah)

Perceiving indifference from the person

But the sweetest things in life can be so sour

Reflecting on the paradox that sweet aspects of life can turn bitter

I know you think you’re walking out on me (Me)

Believing the person is leaving

And I heard you say you’ll forget about me

Referencing the person's statement of forgetting

Like what we had was so good anyway

Questioning the sincerity of past good times

Congratulations this not working out

Congratulating the end of the relationship

But I’m so happy right now (I'm so happy)

Expressing happiness despite the breakup

I’m so glad that you’re gone (I'm so happy)

Being glad about the person's departure

I got no tears left to cry (Look, I'm so happy)

Claiming to have no more tears to cry

I guess it’s all working out (Yeah, woo)

Feeling that things are working out positively


I should've known the first time you wore Baby Phat (Uh)

Regretting not recognizing early signs (Baby Phat reference)

You made me pay it all then you didn’t pay me back (Yeah)

Highlighting financial issues in the relationship

With the glue making curls in your baby hair

Noting a trivial issue (glue in baby hair) as a warning sign

You said, “What up fam” that’s a red flag like a soccer player

Identifying a red flag in the person's behavior

I should've stopped the date and booked it right outta there

Expressing regret for not ending the date earlier

Worse than Freddy Krueger living in my nightmares

Comparing the relationship to a nightmare with Freddy Krueger

You claiming New York when you live in Delaware

Questioning the person's authenticity regarding their location

You wore Timbs to a wedding now I’m getting scared

Expressing concern about the person's inappropriate attire

Have you ever dated someone who’s wrong for you (Uh)

Reflecting on being in a relationship with someone incompatible

You fight so much it’s like they don’t get along with you (Yeah)

Describing constant conflicts in the relationship

I made this song for you

Creating a song as an outlet for expressing feelings

Your friends asking whose man is this

Indicating others questioning the relationship

Like they don’t belong to you, wow

Suggesting the person doesn't fit in the social circle


And I feel like you don’t care about me (Yeah)

Repeating the feeling of perceived indifference

But the sweetest things in life can be so sour

Reiterating the irony of life's sweetness turning sour

I know you think you’re walking out on me (Me)

Re-emphasizing the belief that the person is leaving

And I heard you say you’ll forget about me

Recalling the person's statement of forgetting

Like what we had was so good anyway

Questioning the genuine goodness of past times

Congratulations this not working out

Repeating the congratulatory tone for the end of the relationship

But I’m so happy right now (I'm so happy)

Expressing current happiness despite the breakup

I’m so glad that you’re gone (I'm so happy)

Reiterating gladness about the person's absence

I got no tears left to cry (Look, I'm so happy)

Claiming to have no more tears to shed

I guess it’s all working out (Yeah, woo)

Feeling that everything is now working out positively


You said no one cares (No one cares)

Referencing the person's statement of feeling uncared for

You said you’ll always be there (Yeah)

Recalling the person's promise of always being there

I still love you the same I do, I do, I do (Really, really do)

Affirming continuous love despite the circumstances

You said no one cares (Uh)

Repeating the person's statement of feeling uncared for

You said you’ll always be there (Yeah)

Recalling the person's promise of always being there

I still love you the same I do, I do, I do

Affirming continuous love despite the circumstances
