“Underdog” was premiered on Beats 1 with Zane Lowe on September the 28th, 2017.
The track’s production is upbeat and ferocious. BANKS details a relationship in which her partner had little confidence in himself and saw himself as an “underdog,” a person who has little status.
[Verse 1]
Don't want it, don't want it 'cause I'd fake it
But you better hurry for you and I to make it
It'd be a good story
If you came back as the underdog (Rah)
If you came back as the underdog
I'll call it
Your drunken words were honest
And baby, you worry
They came out like a faucet
And drippin' with words, just prayin'
That you came back as the underdog (Rah)
That you came back as the underdog (Rah)
[Pre-Chorus]
Come in my bed, come back to heaven
Back in my bed, come back to heaven
Back in my bed, come back to heaven
Back in my bed
[Chorus]
Why don't you step to me?
You know I like it in the bath when it's bubbly
And-a-when-a-come-a-to-ya-kisses I like gluttony
Even though I got a reputation unaccompanied
Baby you could make this
Baby you could make it as the underdog
Baby you could make this
Baby you could make it as the underdog
[Verse 2]
I'm pleading
I want you when you mean it
But you better back it up
My breath is getting heated
Baby, just hurry
'Cause you come back as the underdog (Rah)
'Cause you come back as the underdog (Rah)
[Pre-Chorus]
Come in my bed, come back to heaven
Back in my bed, come back to heaven
Back in my bed, come back to heaven
Back in my bed
[Chorus]
Why don't you step to me?
You know I like it in the bath when it's bubbly
And-a-when-a-come-a-to-ya-kisses I like gluttony
Even though I got a reputation unaccompanied
Baby you could make this
Baby you could make it as the underdog
Baby you could make this
Baby you could make it as the underdog
[Bridge]
You got what you wanted
I'll do what you say
We've already started
Don't throw it away
You know that you got me
Let's do this today
Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy
[Chorus]
Why don't you step to me?
You know I like it in the bath when it's bubbly
And-a-when-a-come-a-to-ya-kisses I like gluttony
Even though I got a reputation unaccompanied
Baby you could make this
Baby you could make it as the underdog
Why don't you step to me?
You know I like it in the bath when it's bubbly
And-a-when-a-come-a-to-ya-kisses I like gluttony
Even though I got a reputation unaccompanied
Baby you could make this
Baby you could make it as the underdog
Baby you could make this
Baby you could make it as the underdog
Baby you could make this
Baby you could make it as the underdog

During the premiere of the track on Beats 1, Zane Lowe asked where the track came from. Jillian had this to say:
I don’t know, I was feeling really fiery and I um, I was kinda messing around and I was like ‘rah’ on the mike and I was like ‘I kinda like that’, so we just kinda like put… I don’t know...
