[Intro]
Tell me, baby, do you understand?
[Chorus: Ice Spice]
If he's cheatin', I'm doin' him worse (Like)
No Uno, I hit the reverse (Grrah)
I ain't trippin', the grip in my purse (Grrah)
I don't care 'cause he did it first (Like)
If he's cheatin', I'm doin' him worse (Damn)
I ain't trippin', I— (I ain't trippin', I—)
I ain't trippin', the grip in my purse (Like)
I don't care 'cause he did it first
[Verse 1: Ice Spice]
He beg me to stay, but I'm dippin'
I don't even drink, but I'm sippin'
We not fuckin', but he put the tip in (Grrah)
He get on my nerves, but I'm with it (Grrah)
I start thinkin' when he get up in it
I'm like, "Damn, I knew you for a minute" (Damn)
I don't want them niggas in our business (Like)
I'm like, "Bae, you know you the realest" (Grrah)
I'm like, "Fuck it," I know he gon' spend (Like)
I'm with Tati and her thotty friend
We like, "Fuck it," we fuckin' his friends (Grrah)
We gon' party 'til the party ends
I'm a baddie, he fuck with my tats (Like)
Big boobs and it come with a jatt
Say he don't want me, I know he a cap (Cap)
Oh, you cheatin'? Then I'm cheatin' back
[Chorus: Ice Spice & Central Cee]
If he's cheatin', I'm doin' him worse (Like)
No Uno, I hit the reverse (Grrah)
I ain't trippin', the grip in my purse (Grrah)
I don't care 'cause he did it first (Like)
If he's cheatin', I'm doin' him worse (Damn)
I ain't trippin', I— (Alright)
I ain't trippin', the grip in my purse (Like)
I don't care 'cause he did it first (Uh)
[Verse 2: Central Cee]
I'm selective with who I get with
Gyal on my phone tryna see who I slept with
She investigating, detective
Lucky for me, I deleted the message
All along, it was me and a bad bitch
But I told her it was me and my bredrin
By the end of this verse, I'll be done
I guess we gon' see in like sixteen seconds
If I went court for all of the times I got caught, I'd have about sixteen felons
I keep comin' with stupid excuses like, "I was juiced and tripped and fell in"
I might take the risk DMin'
But I don't know 'cause these chicks be tellin'
At the minute, I'm hittin' some risky women
I clearly ain't learn my lesson
[Chorus: Ice Spice]
If he's cheatin', I'm doin' him worse (Like)
No Uno, I hit the reverse (Grrah)
I ain't trippin', the grip in my purse (Grrah)
I don't care 'cause he did it first (Like)
If he's cheatin', I'm doin' him worse (Damn)
I ain't trippin', I— (I ain't trippin', I—)
I ain't trippin', the grip in my purse (Like)
I don't care 'cause he did it first
[Outro: Ice Spice & Central Cee]
He did it first, he did it first, he did it first, he did it first
He did it first, he did it first, he did it first
Alright
Understand
Baby, do you understa-sta-sta-sta-sta-sta—
Ooh
Sta-sta-sta-sta-sta-sta—
Ooh
Sta-sta-sta-sta-sta-sta—
Ooh
Sta-sta-sta-sta-sta-sta—
Baby, do you understand?
