F**k Being Friends is the 4th track of Jessie Reyez’s EP Being Human in Public. Jessie sings about a boy who wants to be friends after a breakup. She knows the guy just wants to hookup and not have the emotional weight of the relationship anymore and she’s not about it in the slightest.
[Intro]
Fuck being friends (Say it again, girl)
Fuck being friends (We don't pretend)
[Verse 1]
I got your heart in my hand and your dick in the other
You ain't scared to fuck, but you scared of being lovers
Why is that, huh?
[Chorus]
My pussy beat better than my heart do?
Boy, please, you ain't blind, you're a smart dude
So why you pussy-footin' on this part two?
Know, you didn't come here just to argue
You still love me, oh, oh, oh
Yeah, you stuck, why play dumb?
You still love me, oh, oh, oh, yeah
Why you worried if your friends blowing me up tryna fuck me?
All up in my phone, all, all up in my head
You stuck, why play dumb?
You still love me, oh, oh, oh
[Hook]
Fuck being friends (Fuck being friends)
Fuck being friends (Fuck being friends)
Fuck being friends (Fuck being friends)
Fuck being friends (Fuck being friends)
[Verse 2]
Why you in my bed?
Prolly cause I'm still up in your head, oh
I was doing better and you knew it, so you called me
Then you start to feel again, but you’re scared to fall
Why is that? Huh?
[Chorus]
My pussy beat better than my heart do?
Boy, please, you ain't blind, you're a smart dude
So why you pussy-footin' on this part two?
Cause you know, you didn't come here just to argue
You still love me, oh, oh, oh
Yeah, you stuck, why play dumb?
You still love me, oh, oh, oh, yeah
Why you worried if your friends blowing me up tryna fuck me?
All up in my phone, all, all up in my head
You stuck, why play dumb?
You still love me, oh, oh, oh
[Hook]
Fuck being friends (Fuck being friends)
Fuck being friends (Fuck being friends)
Fuck being friends (Fuck being friends)
Fuck being friends (Fuck being friends)
Fuck being friends (Say it again, girl)

They fucked around or you fucked around, and they say “Hey, let’s be friends.” […] This shit is about for when your ex or whatever says, “Let’s be friends,” and you’re like “Hmm, fuck being friends!”
