Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Whole damn time I knew I shouldn't have did it
Might've got too excited, I'll admit it
Almost called your name when he was in it
Ooh
It's wrong, but you make me feel right
Textin' your phone while right beside him
I was with my man last night
And I just realized what I felt that night wasn't wrong
Thought about you in the whole car ride, like
I hate that you ain't your best friend
I hate that you ain't your best friend
Nah-nah-nah-nah, nah-nah-nah-nah
I hate that you ain't your best friend
Nah-nah-nah-nah (nah), no, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Hate he had the courage to step up and pull up (skrrt), 6-speed, like (skrrt-skrrt)
Put in so much work (work), just to make it worth (worth)
And he's almost perfect and that why it hurts
And he calls me family, that's what make it worse
Ooh
It's wrong, but I make you feel right (you make me feel right)
You textin' my phone while right beside him
Wish it was anyone besides him
You was with my man last night (with my man)
And you just realized what you felt that night wasn't wrong (what I felt that night)
Thought about me on your whole car ride, like
I hate that you ain't your best friend
I hate that you ain't your best friend
Nah-nah-nah-nah, nah-nah-nah-nah (no)
Sayin' I hate that you ain't your best friend
Nah-nah-nah-nah, no, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh (I hate that you ain't your best friend, yeah)
Is that right? Hmm
Damn, I'm just mad that he came up to me and talk to me tough
This ain't monopoly, I didn't think you'd play for this long
And it's so sad that he treat me like royalty and for what?
I know that honestly your loyalty is only to us
I always knew from the beginnin'
The whole damn time, it's you that I was feelin'
Seems like things are better when forbidden
And that's why I hate that
I hate that you ain't your best friend
Nah-nah-nah-nah, nah-nah-nah-nah (nah-nah-nah)
I hate that you ain't your best friend
Nah-nah-nah-nah, no, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
I hate that you ain't your-
