And that's been on my mind a lot lately

Gotta put my phone on silent
So my, my, my bad
Oh, we both care about it
But arguing with me just isn't worth it

Alright
In Khalid's song "My Bad," he talks about a relationship that has gone through some rough patches due to miscommunication. Khalid mentions that his partner has blown his line many times and this has been on his mind lately. He then expresses his desire to leave all the extra issues behind as he knows his partner wants to be his baby. Although they both care about the relationship, arguing with him isn't worth it as there are more important things to focus on. Khalid also apologizes for not responding to texts and calls as he was working but acknowledges that he's been blowing up his partner's phone and he needs to put his own phone on silent.
The chorus, "My Bad," emphasizes his remorse for not reciprocating his partner's calls and text messages as he was working. Khalid apologizes for being unavailable and not providing the attention his partner deserves. He admits that they had something good going on and he wants to move past the misunderstandings so that they can continue to vibe and have a cool relationship.
The overall interpretation of the song is that Khalid acknowledges the difficulties that come with any relationship, the ups and downs that create friction, and the importance of effective communication to resolve conflicts. He apologizes for his mistakes, takes responsibility for his actions, and is willing to put in the effort to make things work.
