Creepin'
Metro Boomin Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Just can't believe this, man)
(Metro Boomin want some more, nigga)

Somebody said they saw you
The person you were kissin' wasn't me
And I would never ask you
I just kept it to myself

I don't wanna know
If you're playin' me, keep it on the low



'Cause my heart can't take it anymore
And if you're creepin', please, don't let it show
Oh, baby, I don't wanna know

I think about it when I hold you
When lookin' in your eyes, I can't believe
And I don't need to know the truth
Baby, keep it to yourself

I don't wanna know
If you're playin' me, keep it on the low
'Cause my heart can't take it anymore
And if you're creepin', please, don't let it show
Oh, baby, I don't wanna know

Did he touch you better than me? (Touch you better than me)
Did he watch you fall asleep? (Watch you fall asleep)
Did you show him all those things
That you used to do to me?
If you're better off that way (better off that way)
Baby, all that I can say (all that I can say)
Just go on and do your thing (hey)
And don't come back to me (come back to me)

Whoa, whoa, whoa, 21
Had me crushin', I was cuffin' like the precinct
How you go from housewife to a sneaky link?
Got you ridin' 'round in all type of Benzes and Rovers
Girl, you used to ride in the rinky dink
I'm the one put you in Eliantte (on God)
Fashion Nova model, I put you on the runway (on God)
You was rockin' Coach bags, got you Chane'-ne'
Side bitch in Frisco, I call her my Bay-bae (21)
I got a girl, but I still feel alone (on God)
If you playin' me that mean my home ain't home (on God)
Havin' nightmares of goin' through your phone (21)
Can't even record, you got me out my zone

I don't wanna know
If you're playin' me, keep it on the low
'Cause my heart can't take it anymore
And if you're creepin', please, don't let it show
Oh, baby, I don't wanna know
If you're playin' me, keep it on the low
'Cause my heart can't take it anymore
And if you're creepin', please, don't let it show
Oh, baby, I don't wanna know

If you creepin', just don't let me find out (on God)
Get a hotel, never bring 'em to the house (on God)
If you're better off that way
Baby, all that I can say
If you're gonna do your thing
Then don't come back to me

Overall Meaning

The song “Creepin’” by Metro Boomin featuring 21 Savage is a heartbreak anthem where both artists discuss the pain of being cheated on by their partner. The song begins with Metro Boomin stating that he has heard rumors about his girlfriend cheating on him, but he doesn’t want to know the truth. He would rather live in ignorance than have his heart broken. He pleads with the girl not to let anyone know if she is still seeing this other person. The chorus, “I don’t wanna know, if you’re playing me, keep it on the low”, is a repetitive plea to his partner to keep their affair a secret.


In the second verse, 21 Savage reflects on his experiences with cheating. He talks about how he was so in love with a girl that he wanted to marry her, but she ended up being unfaithful. He took her from wearing Coach bags to designer clothes, but she still chose to cheat on him. 21 Savage then exclaims that he still feels alone despite having a girlfriend, and that he has nightmares about going through her phone.


The song “Creepin’” highlights the issue of trust in a relationship, and how infidelity can hurt someone deeply. The lyrics are emotional, and the beat is melodic, which adds to the overall aesthetic of the song.
