want that too Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I was blindsided, couldn't see it comin'
Too young to be treated like that (Like that)
You were on somethin', cut me down to nothin'
And your knife's still stuck in my back (My back)

[Pre-Chorus]
Keep sayin' one day I'll regret it
But I don't
Prolly think one day I'll forget it
But I won't

[Chorus]
Oh, I gave you everything that I couldn't afford to lose
Now I pull myself together and you come out of the blue
Takin' all the better parts of me is all you ever do
Now the second I find somethin' good, I know that
You're gonna want that too (Mhm)
You're gonna want that too (Mhm)

[Verse 2]
Heard you're throwin' shots, watch them ricochet
I got time for everything but your shit today
I'm not waitin' for your call, but I know you will
That's the only hand left that you got to play

[Pre-Chorus]
Keep sayin' one day I'll regret it
But I don't
Prolly think one day I'll forget it
But I promise you, now I won't

[Chorus]
Oh, I gave you everything that I couldn't afford to lose
Now I pull myself together and you come out of the blue
Takin' all the better parts of me is all you ever do
Now the second I found somethin' good, I know that
You're gonna want that too (Gonna want that too; Mhm)
You're gonna want that too (Gonna want that too; Mhm)

[Bridge]
No, no, no, no
Take my innocence for weakness, take my money, I don't need it
'Cause that's all you ever wanted, didn't you?
Take my youth and fuck me over, made me realize now I'm older
Never wanna be anything like you

[Chorus]
Oh, I gave you everything that I couldn't afford to lose
And I pull myself together, you come out of the blue
Takin' all the better parts of me is all you ever do
Now the second I found somethin' good, I know that
You're gonna want that too, oh-oh
You're gonna want that too

What did Tate McRae say about "want that too"?

It was written about the music industry and some situations I’d gone through. I was a young and naive 18-, 19-year-old thinking that I could trust everyone I came across. This is when I realised for the first time in my life that kindness can be taken for weakness and that I needed to have a few more walls up. My boundaries had to be a little stronger in order to not get walked over as a young female in the industry. That’s when I got my first taste of being a young woman who’s trying to start something in her life. There’s that lyric, ‘The second I find something good, I know that you’re going to want that too.’ It’s a really personal story and it just shows the feeling of being used and not knowing it was coming and feeling blindsided by things.
