ACKNOWLEDGE ME
Doja Cat Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I hide my face and run far away
I get crazy, angsty, when you get under my skin
The power it takes to make me cry that way
Baby, I hate it when you get under my skin (yeah, when you, yeah)
Another glass, broke the other glassTechnically, it wasn't me, I'm sober now (now)
You get all in a mood when it's overcast (cast)
I get all in a mood when it's over cash (yeah)
I'm over that (I'm over that), you notice that? (That)
Other couples be cussin' and fightin' over tabs
Baby, take another tab, come and hold my ass (just hold me)
Don't you ever in your life call me Doja Cat (don't)
I don't sign titties on my coffee dates (nah)
I emptied out your motherfuckin' Coffee-Mate
I can show you crazy if you call me cray
I ate a pussy for you, don't you call me gay
You out here actin' like you sniffin' on some Carly Rae
Cartier on you, but you barkin' like you Cardi B (yeah)
You ain't stupid, but you probably ain't as smart as me
I told the concierge to change the lock for the apartment key
I hide my face and run far away (I hide my face)
I get crazy, angsty, when you get under my skin (crazy)
The power it takes to make me cry that way
Baby, I hate me when you get under my skin (yeah, hey, yeah, hey, yeah)
I stopped poutin' (twin), I stopped cryin' (ah)
The chef made breakfast, check the center island
Dhl package came, I don't have to sign it
The toilet seats poppin' open when I walk by 'em
Put it to bed, close the black-outsYou wouldn't treat your mama like that in a Black house
Hats off to that, I can't cap now
Admit you hate seein' me with all them plaques now
Security around the clock, you gotta back down
And put the bag down, turn your ass 'round
Now that you got it front and center, face the facts now (yeah)
This what you get for leavin' bitches in the background
Quote, bitches, end quote (ah)
(Yeah, yeah, said, I)
I hide my face and run far away (I hide my face)
I get crazy, angsty, when you get under my skin (crazy, angsty)
The power it takes to make me cry that way
Baby, I hate me when you get under my skin (baby, hate me)

In the song "ACKNOWLEDGE ME" by Doja Cat, the lyrics depict a tumultuous relationship where the singer struggles with their emotions and the dynamics of their connection with their partner. The opening lines set the scene at a metaphorical camp, where the singer feels the need to hide their face and escape from the situation. They describe feeling agitated and vulnerable when their partner gets under their skin, expressing a deep dislike for the power their partner holds over their emotions.
As the song progresses, the lyrics touch upon themes of intoxication, emotional turmoil, and identity. The mention of pouring another glass and referencing sobriety hints at a sense of escapism or numbing of emotions through substances. There is a juxtaposition between mood swings based on the weather (overcast) and financial status (over cash), suggesting a volatile and unpredictable relationship dynamic. The singer also delves into issues of self-identity and boundaries, asserting a need for respect and autonomy while navigating societal expectations and stereotypes.
The middle section of the song delves deeper into the singer's emotional state and the power dynamics within the relationship. References to personal sacrifices and perceived betrayals underscore a sense of hurt and frustration. The lyrics convey a mix of vulnerability and defiance, challenging stereotypes and societal standards while also grappling with personal insecurities and desires for recognition and acceptance.
Towards the end of the song, the singer reflects on personal growth and empowerment. The mention of stopping pouting and crying, as well as asserting control over their surroundings, hints at a newfound sense of agency and self-assurance. The lyrics also touch upon themes of independence, success, and setting boundaries, indicating a willingness to stand up for oneself and demand respect in the face of challenges. Overall, "ACKNOWLEDGE ME" by Doja Cat portrays a narrative of emotional complexity, introspection, and resilience within the context of a complicated relationship.
