Know what it is when you hear that
Breakfast in bed, darling
I got your bed falling
I make you beg for it
I make you beg for it
Breakfast in bed, darling
I got your bed falling
I made mistakes, you done me wrong
But now you leave me calling
Hmm-mmm-mmm
Oh, oh, oh
I heard you got a new girlfriend
And it's hurtin' me
I heard you got a new girlfriend
And it's hurtin'
Yeah, it's hurtin'
Yeah, it's hurtin' me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me
Me, me, me, me, me
Yeah, it's hurtin' me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me
Me, me, me, me, me
Tears down my face, fallin'
I'm in the place bawlin'
If I ever find her, find her, find her
I'm sendin' shots, I'm sendin' shots
I don't know why you stallin'
Can you give me signs, can you please call me?
Baby, you rewinding it all on me
Baby, give me time, beg you love, love me
Hmm-mmm-mmm
Oh, oh, oh
I heard you got a new girlfriend
And it's hurtin' me
I heard you got a new girlfriend
And it's hurtin'
Yeah, it's hurtin'
Yeah, it's hurtin' me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me
Me, me, me, me, me (Montana)
Yeah, it's hurtin' me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me
Me, me, me, me, me (Don)
What you know about goin' out, big jet, big check?
Don't care, die for my respect
Life, we gon' live it up
Neck, we gon' glit' it up
Dice game, get 'em, girl, gon' bet it up
Grind and invest it
Invest play the main role not the ex shit
X-rate movies like Netflix
Never domestic, watch and a necklace
Young and I'm restless, you know who the best is
Three-quarter, Gucci mink with the fur shoe
Got a girl, and my girl got a girl too
Hit me with the fab like, put it in the bag
Pull up on my new ting, like I knew she mad
I heard you got a new girlfriend
And it's hurtin' me
I heard you got a new girlfriend
And it's hurtin'
Yeah, it's hurtin'
Yeah, it's hurtin' me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me
Me, me, me, me, me
Yeah, it's hurtin' me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me
Me, me, me, me, me
And I cry, I cry, even my eye cry
But who cares?
Who cares?
And I cry, I cry, even my eye cry
But who cares?
Who cares?
In the footage, we get a further insight into the fashion, setting and chroreography that make the 'Hurtin' Me' visual so great.
SERIOUSLY STEFFLON IS SERVING LOOKS AND MOVES IN THIS VIDEO AND WE ARE NOT WORTHY.
We also get to hear a bit more about the song's inspiration and some context for the video.
In one scene Stefflon explains "I'm basically sad because my man left me." However, she's quick to add that this is for the video and not based on her experience. "Not that that happens in real life because no one leaves me. It's all acting baby."
Stefflon actually confirmed on Twitter that the single isn't even about her but that she's the "new girlfriend" in it.
"I wrote that s**t for his [baby mama] to sing"! Amazing.
Stefllon also goes in on working through pain like a pro - her "shoes are too small" but she soldiers on - and making sure that the shots used in the video are her best performances and flatter her. "The angles on my a** is looking good so I'm happy."
