In Omah Lay's song "Understand," the singer tries to make sense of a situation where he feels betrayed by someone he trusted. He gave this person his all, including his heart and material possessions, but they still cut his hair and changed their attitude towards him. He is in a state of confusion and frustration because he cannot wrap his head around why this person did what they did. Their actions have left him sick one minute and feeling better the next. He implies that this person was the reason he got into trouble with law enforcement, and he wonders if God can fix the problem. The singer's repeated assertion of "I no fit understand" highlights the bewilderment he feels and shows his confusion about what went wrong.
This song explores the themes of betrayal, heartbreak, and confusion. The singer invested his emotions and trust in someone, but they let him down. He cannot comprehend why they did this to him, and this has left him questioning everything they shared. The repeated phrases and the use of simple language make the lyrics catchy and easy to sing along to, allowing the listener to engage with the emotions the singer is expressing. The beat of the song is a mix of Afrobeats and RnB, with Omah Lay's distinctive voice bringing both genres together.
