Similar to the unique style Kenzie introduced in her album Phases, she once again employs an electric and catchy tune in HOT, an anthem declaring her independence from a significant other who had kept her attracted through his appearance but treated her poorly.
Although not yet explicitly confirmed...
[Verse 1]
Should have listened to my friends
They saw somethin' I didn't
Should've seen it, but your kiss
It broke my intuition
[Pre-Chorus]
You look so good, but looks can be deceivin'
You lie so well, I almost believed it
[Chorus]
You think I'd stay for your face
My heart was never that vain
Thought you're worth my time and space
Used your beauty like it's currency
What's inside is such a shame
Was it me or was it the game?
Don't know who you think you are to act so cold
[Post-Chorus]
Just because you're (Hot) hot (Hot, hot)
Just because you're (Hot) hot (Hot, hot)
[Verse 2]
Fights you started ended up with me apologizing
And you'll tell everyone we broke up just because of timing
[Pre-Chorus]
You look so good, but looks can be deceivin'
You lie so well, I almost believed it
[Chorus]
You think I'd stay for your face
My heart was never that vain
Thought you're worth my time and space
Used your beauty like it's currency
What's inside is such a shame
Was it me or was it the game?
Don't know who you think you are to act so cold
[Post-Chorus]
Just because you're (Hot) hot (Hot, hot)
Just because you're (Hot) hot (Hot, hot)
[Bridge]
I know I'm better off right here by myself
So save your smile for someone else
[Chorus]
You think I'd stay for your face
My heart was never that vain
Thought you're worth my time and space
Used your beauty like it's currency
What's inside is such a shame
Was it me or was it the game?
Don't know who you think you are to act so cold
[Post-Chorus]
Just because you're (Hot) hot (Hot, hot)
Oh, just because you're (Hot) hot (Hot, hot)
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
