The song was first recorded in late December 2024 and was submitted just 4 hours before it officially dropped on June 27, two days after KY’s birthday. It also marks the first release from his GOOD BOY GONE MAD mixtape.
KY GORDON produced this song with heavy inspiration from Tory Lanez’s Traphouse...
[Verse 1]
Said that you moved on, but you stalking on the IG
Tattoo on your body say forever, so you miss me
Lose some self-respect when you know I’m on the phone
You the reason why I make these sad songs
But that was like last year (fuck you)
But you love the way I make these songs about you
The way that I never ever left you
(Right, like we haven’t heard that already)
Well, you know me
Aye, I’ll leave if something bothers me (where are you)
You said that you can’t be with me
Why you stall, baby, do you miss me (fuck you)
Why you stalk if you ain’t seeing me
‘Cause I’m a ghost in your mind, baby
How many times did I leave before?
And how many times did I say I’m sorry, but I’ll go back and do it all over?
How many times did he break your heart, and you ain’t ever left him?
Saying you ain’t in the wrong, but you ain’t ever tell him
[Bridge]
So why you (why you)
Don’t choose me (choose me)
When you know I was first
So why you (why you)
Don’t call me (call me)
When you know that I’m still hurtin’
Just pick up your phone (call me)
(Oh baby call me, I know you miss me)
Just pick up the phone (call me)
(Oh baby call me, I know you miss me)
[Chorus]
So why you
Always playin’
As the victim
As the victim
So why you
Always playin’
As the victim
Like the victim
[Verse 2]
Postin’ on the ‘Gram, you know that’s where to go
Let me in your private and you gon’ try to troll
Did you ever love me? I hope your ass say no
Tired of the games you play, I’m ready for you go
Flex up on my ex (flex on my ex)
Got some bitches on the sideline, yeah
Already know who next (I know who next)
What you did still hurt me, girl, ‘cause I’m not the best for you, oh
Like I was the first one through, oh
[Bridge]
So why you (why you)
Don’t choose me (choose me)
When you know I was first
So why you (why you)
Don’t call me (call me)
When you know that I’m still hurtin’
Just pick up your phone (call me)
(Oh baby call me, I know you miss me)
Just pick up the phone (call me)
(Oh baby call me, I know you miss me)
[Chorus]
So why you
Always playin’
As the victim
As the victim
So why you
Always playin’
As the victim
Like the victim
