“detest me” calls to a past-partner trying to repair a failed relationship. As the first verse sees glaive’s mixed emotions through the situation, the chorus reassures the girl that he’ll be there for her, despite people trying to get him out.

[Verse 1]
I can't deny you were better by my side
And you know I can't reply
Because it proved that you tried
And I can't get that through my thick head, baby
I know I've been a dickhead lately
And I know you think my new friends change me
But I know either way that you would
[Chorus]
Detest me, there's a couple hundred people wanna end me
If you ever need a thing, promise you'll text me
They wanna put a hundred shots into my chest piecе
Defend me
Dеtest me, there's a couple hundred people wanna end me
If you ever need a thing, promise you'll text me
They wanna put a hundred shots into my chest piece
Defend me
[Verse 2]
And these feelings, they don't fade as we've been growing up
My meals, yeah, they don't change even when I'm throwing up
My bills, yeah, they don't break even when I'm slowing up
My friends, yeah, they might change 'cause I've been going up
I guess that it's hard to digest
Dissect the people in my head
My bet is my friends aren't fine yet
Only sixteen, surprised I ain't died yet
[Chorus]
Detest me, there's a couple hundred people wanna end me
If you ever need a thing, promise you'll text me
They wanna put a hundred shots into my chest piece
Defend me
Detest me, there's a couple hundred people wanna end me
If you ever need a thing, promise you'll text me
They wanna put a hundred shots into my chest piece
