The repetition of the phrase "I know" emphasizes the singer's faith that their lover will eventually return to them. Lyrical comparisons to Drake and Justin Timberlake highlight the singer's smooth and confident demeanor, suggesting that they are confident in their ability to win back their lover with ease.
The second verse explores the singer's frustration with their lover's lack of understanding towards their artistic pursuits.

The line "I doubt you'll ever know or try to understand, I think you like the idea of what an artist is" suggests that the singer feels misunderstood and unappreciated in their relationship. The phrase "we could argue or fuck at the same time" underscores the singer's passion and intensity and suggests that even if their lover may not understand their artistic endeavors, their passion for each other is still strong.
