Spiteful
Partynextdoor Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tell me just how to ride, oh girl I need you
Where's your loyalty and honor when I need you?
Most nights at work
Pray in the church for me
She says she wants to see me smile more
Come a long way, I need miles more
I found you, I can find more
Don't get too caught up with that nigga
Don't hate on my new bitches
'Cause you got you a nigga
What we had wasn't love, love, love, love, yeah
Don't be spiteful
And I won't be spiteful
I see you takin' shots girl
I see you ain't forgot girl
Don't be spiteful

Don't get too caught up with that nigga
Don't hate on my new bitches
'Cause you got you a nigga
What we had wasn't love, love, love, love, yeah
Don't be spiteful
And I won't be spiteful, aye
I see you takin' shots girl
I see you ain't forgot girl
Don't be spiteful

Take us out the YYZ
Take us out the YYZ
Cause everything seems to remind you of me
Oh, oh
Crazy as it seems and you did it

Don't get too caught up with that nigga
Yeah
'Cause you got you a nigga
What we had wasn't love, love, love, love, yeah
Don't be spiteful
Just don't be spiteful
Don't be spiteful
Don't be spiteful

I know you want everything
And I won't be spiteful




Don't be spiteful
Don't be spiteful

Overall Meaning

In PARTYNEXTDOOR's song Spiteful, the artist sings about a past relationship which was not built on love, loyalty, or honor. The singer asks the subject not to be resentful toward him for moving on with his life and seeing other women. He also acknowledges that he has found her and can find more, insinuating that the relationship may not have been particularly fulfilling. While the singer acknowledges that the subject has a new man in her life, he asks her not to become upset with him for having new women in his own life, emphasizing the importance of forgiveness and moving forward.


The chorus of "Don't be spiteful" repeats throughout the song, urging both parties to move on and not let resentment consume them. The final lines mention taking a trip out of YYZ, or Toronto Pearson International Airport, perhaps symbolizing a desire to move on from this turbulent relationship and leave it behind.
