A part slick, tongue-in-cheek song and part regret track, Kehlani deals with remorse for being with someone, feeling like she should have been alone at the time to focus on herself.
There are moments of self-affirmation and confidence in the lyrics, such as “I never let ‘em win 'less I say so/And I...
[Intro]
And I, and I wish I never
You, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 1]
I never let 'em win 'less I say so
And I don't show my cards, but I play though
Then put 'em in my bag like my bankroll
This time, that's just not the case though
[Pre-Chorus]
I was lackin', I ain't proud of it
I know I coulda held it down for real
But you really came to show out (Show out)
Before I knew it, I was top gun, shotgun, got one with me
[Chorus]
Never meant what I said to you, baby
Was in character for the animation
You ain't never had this type of stimulation
Had to take it back to play in my favor
It's all love when I see you and your bitch smilin'
Put the gas on it, but I kept the mileage
Seen the bullet comin', but I didn't dodge it quick enough
I wish I never did it
From the bathroom to the kitchen
Wish I woulda kept it pimpin'
Shoulda never took that mission
Never got into your Lambo
Let you shoot it up like Rambo
Now you made me an example
Caught me slippin', I'm so over this
I wish I never
[Post-Chorus]
(Ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh, ooh-ooh)
And I wish I never
(Ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
[Verse 2]
I usually got the game in a headlock
Known to keep a piece on deadstock
Don't drive him up, don't want no rest stop
Couldn't keep it on the low like bedrock
[Pre-Chorus]
I was lackin', I ain't proud of it
I know I coulda held it down for real
But you really came to show out (Show out)
Before I knew it, I was turnt out, burnt out, got one with me
[Chorus]
Never meant what I said to you, baby
Was in character for the animation
You ain't never had this type of stimulation
Had to take it back to play in my favor
It's all love when I see you and that bitch smilin'
I put the gas on it, but I kept the mileage
Seen the bullet comin', but I didn't dodge it quick enough
I wish I never did it
From the bathroom to the kitchen
Wish I woulda kept it pimpin'
Shoulda never took that mission
Never got into your Lambo
Let you shoot it up like Rambo
Now you made me an example
Caught me slippin', I'm so over this
I wish I never
[Post-Chorus]
(Ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh, ooh-ooh)
And I wish I never
(Ooh, ooh-ooh) Ooh-oh
(Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
