Ali Gatie was born to Iraqi parents in Yemen in 1997. His family moved to Abu Dhabi before settling in Mississauga, Ontario. He grew up listening to Ed Sheeran, J. Cole and Frank Ocean, who influenced his music.
Gatie started pursuing a music career at the age of 18 and started to record in 2016. This decision later caused him to drop out of university.[2] In 2017, he won an online RhymeStars competition hosted by Joe Budden. After releasing a string of singles in 2018, he was signed by Warner Records.[3] The song "Moonlight" would turn out to be his first commercial success, garnering nearly 14 million views on YouTube. However, the release of "It's You" in June 2019 would become his mainstream breakthrough;[4] an "explosive streaming story," as of December 2019, it had exceeded 650 million streams.[5][6] On 8 November 2019, Gatie released his first album, You. A 12-minute film accompanied the release, which included seven new songs.[7] Gatie's snippet of his next single "What If I Told You That I Love You," released on the video-sharing social networking app TikTok, went viral, amassing over 20 million engagements. Released in January 2020, the single was described by Rolling Stone as "a breezy, springtime-fresh midtempo track" and peaked at number 36 on Billboard's Hot Canadian Digital Song Sales Chart.

Ali Gatie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Late nights feeling sick you my remedy
I remember every moment, every memory
Sipping on you, fuck sipping on the Hennessy
Have you living in the Hills, out in Beverly
Yeah we coulda been forever been a legacy
But you tryna fight claiming that we enemies
Whatever happened to together 'til we 70
We moved apart girl now we living separately
I remember you, can't you remember me
Loving you my specialty, you my secret recipe
You helped me find my self, a part of my identity
My love, my oxygen to me you a necessity
I hope this reaches you if not its my serenity
Bars on my mind like I'm convicted for a felony
And ah, that was a hard time
Its been a while since we talked its been a long time
I been on my phone, checking if you online
Stalking up your page, wonder if you're on mine
Been a couple years, thought that I'd be over you
Still hold the tears, when I think of holding you
You left and disappeared, I can't get a hold of you
I can't believe you'd me wrong, was someone else controlling you?
'Cause after all the times, everything we been through
Every time you lie, I'd always defend you
And when I saw you cry, I'd just hold you gentle
For you I prayed to God, to me you like a temple
So tell me did you love me? Or did you pretend to?
Every time you touched me, was it even special?
Was I a priority? Or squeezed into schedule
Baby you angel same time you the devil
After all the times, everything we been through
Every time you lie, I'd always defend you
When every time you cry, i'd just hold you gentle
For you I prayed to God, to me you like a temple, yeah
Music to my ear you my melody
Late nights feeling sick you my remedy
I remember every moment, every memory
Sipping on you, fuck sipping on the Hennessy
Have you living in the Hills, out in Beverly
Yeah we coulda been forever been a legacy
But you tryna fight claiming that we enemies
Thinking 'bout the jealousy forgetting all chemistry, yeah
Music to my ear you my melody
Late nights feeling sick you my remedy
I remember every moment, every memory
Sipping on you, fuck sipping on the Hennessy
Have you living in the Hills, out in Beverly
Yeah we coulda been forever been a legacy
But you tryna fight claiming that we enemies
Thinking 'bout the jealousy forgetting all chemistry, yeah yeah

This is shown in the lines "Music to my ear you my melody/Late nights feeling sick you my remedy".
The song speaks to the theme of love and heartbreak, shedding light on how difficult it can be to let go of a past love.

You are focusing too much on feeling jealous and forgetting the strong connection we have
Whatever happened to together 'til we 70
We had planned to spend our whole lives together, even in our old age
We moved apart girl now we living separately
Our lives have taken different paths and we're no longer together
I remember you, can't you remember me
I still hold on to memories of you, I wonder if you still have any feelings for me
Loving you my specialty, you my secret recipe
I am really good at loving you, you are my 'secret sauce' that makes my life complete

And ah, that was a hard time
The past was really difficult for us both
Its been a while since we talked its been a long time
We have not communicated in a long time
I been on my phone, checking if you online
I've been stalking your digital presence, trying to keep up with your life
Stalking up your page, wonder if you're on mine
I'm curious if you still think about me, just like I think about you
Been a couple years, thought that I'd be over you
It's been years since we broke up, I thought I would've moved on by now
Still hold the tears, when I think of holding you
Just the thought of holding you still brings tears to my eyes
You left and disappeared, I can't get a hold of you
You left my life and I haven't been able to reach out or hear from you since
I can't believe you'd me wrong, was someone else controlling you?
I can't imagine that you would intentionally hurt me, was there someone else influencing your actions?
For you I prayed to God, to me you like a temple
You are sacred to me, I've always had strong feelings for you and prayed for your happiness
So tell me did you love me? Or did you pretend to?
I still have doubts about whether you truly loved me, or if it was all just an act
Every time you touched me, was it even special?
I'm questioning if the moments we shared together were truly meaningful to you
Was I a priority? Or squeezed into schedule
I'm unsure if you truly valued me and prioritized our relationship, or if it was just one of many other things on your list
Baby you angel same time you the devil
You have both an angelic and devilish side to you, you were both loving and hurtful to me
