In "GIRL I'M WITH," Citizen brushes off a flirtation by pointing to a commitment that already feels unshakable. The attention is tempting, but the loyalty is framed as immunity, a vaccine against wandering eyes and late-night offers. The repeated warning to save yourself turns the other woman's confidence back on her, while the bridge reveals the real stakes: desire feels dangerous only because the existing bond matters more than any fantasy. The song lands as a proud, almost defiant refusal to trade lasting devotion for a fleeting thrill.
GIRL I’M WITH Lyrics by Citizen
Yeah, I got all this money on my own
If you need my number then you don’t, go ahead and ask me
But I been this way for a long time
Before I had the fame or the spotlight
She been making eyes across the room
And she might be my type, but I’m immune
Taken like a vaccine
I can tell that face never declines
But that’s about to change for the first time
‘Cause I don’t need your love
So you won’t get me in your bed
If that ain’t clear enough
We’ll get along, but I won’t be your man
Save yourself, girl, you won’t save us
Save yourself, girl, you won’t save us
She said, “Have you ever seen a girl like this?”
Wait ’til you see the girl I’m with
I won’t lose control for a minute baby
You must not know ’bout the girl I’m with
Don’t play ’bout me and my baby, she’s mine
I do what I want and I get paid
Y’all do what you’re told, we’re not the same
I could take a backseat
She said, “We should dance for the one time”
But I got other plans ’til the sunrise
If I get a call, I’m on the way
If you’re not my momma or my baby, then don’t distract me
You ain’t on this road for the long ride
For where you tryna go, I’m the wrong guy
‘Cause I don’t need your love
So you won’t get me in your bed
If that ain’t clear enough
We’ll get along, but I won’t be your man
Save yourself, girl, you won’t save us
Save yourself, girl, you won’t save us
She said, “Have you ever seen a girl like this?”
Wait ’til you see the girl I’m with
Is this a fantasy or is that the man in the mirror?
She’ll be the death of me if I let her stand any nearer
I’ll stay committed to my baby like my life’s on the line
I’ll stay committed to my baby and I’m committed for life
I don’t need your love
You won’t get me in your bed (Ah, ah)
We’ll get along, but I won’t be your man
Save yourself, girl, you won’t save us
Save yourself, girl, you won’t save us
She said, “Have you ever seen a girl like this?”
Wait ’til you see the girl I’m with
I won’t lose control for a minute, baby
You must not know ’bout the girl I’m with
Don’t play ’round me, I ain’t switching sides
I’d give you my soul before I let her take me
You must not know ’bout the girl I’m with
Don’t play ’bout me and my baby, she’s mine
