We still don't trust you
(You fell apart, gradual)
We still don't trust you
(We broke your heart from the start)

The lines about someone falling apart and having their heart broken suggest a history of pain that’s hard to shake off. It’s catchy, but it also feels heavy, showing how hard it is to move forward when you're scared of getting hurt again.

And the Paris girls, they sing my song with love
In the stadium is where I feel at home
I forgot the feeling of arena shows
And she love the stage, it got her sexual
In this verse, Future shifts the focus to his experiences as a performer. He mentions the connection he feels with fans, especially in Paris, which is a nod to his fame.
