Just for night, yeah, just for the night
Do I wanna lose all that I have?
You could be a muse and help me cash
But I just need you to come break my back
If you wanna attack, then it's just that
That's just life, I'ma be real, you just my type

They made a song about cheating sound heavenly. I love them.
@hipatiadalejandria8418
Ya’ll clearly didn’t got the lyrics, the song is about a dude who is trying to persuade Doja by making her cheat on her bf, but at the end she decides to stick up with her boyfriend, is not bad to feel like you are about to cheat, but is your responsibility if at the end of the day you decide to do it.
@elmowilcox
@@hipatiadalejandria8418 there is no lyric in the song that concludes she stuck with her man. Everything here lends itself to “let’s do this.” Everything before a “but” is bullshit. “Yea I got my guy….BUT….I want you.” There’s nothing after that.
@leslieg272
@@hipatiadalejandria8418 idk if u see the very end but Doja stay with her bf but she in a middle of the ocean. Throughout the video she just keep thinking of TWD because he is the god of aquarius and the fact that she collects water shows that she always think about him. Yes she is loyal but is she happy? Idk it really shows that her bf is just not for her.
