"Hunter" is about leaning into the fantasy of swooping someone’s GF/BF who you’ve been friends with but wanting more from for a while. It’s acknowledging that you know it’s fucked up, but that jealous part of you is winning and you just don’t care. You’ll do anything to get what you want.
lyrics
Every time she talk, she talk talk
It gets me wired
Ooh she got what I want, what I want
and I won’t deny it
And every time I see her kiss you it fuels my fire
I really wanna tell that bitch that you are mine
I don’t wanna say it but that’s how it be
I'm just a little fucked up when it comes to me
And I’m waiting, watching
like a hawk that drops in
and it’s over, gotta show her
That I’m coming for you
Who knew what I could do
Ooh yeah!
Better run girl, I’m a hunter
And it’s in my nature
Don’t we always want want want what we can’t have
I’m acting like a brat outta wack baby it’s just bad
But I can tell you feel it too when I get you alone
You see I can play the long game,
watch me while I steal her throne
I don’t wanna say it but that’s how it be
just a little fucked up when it comes to me
And I’m waiting, watching
like a hawk that drops in
and it’s over, gotta show her
That I’m coming for you
Who knew what I could do
Ooh yeah!
Better run girl, I’m a hunter
And it’s in my nature
Better run girl (better run girl)
I’m a hunter (I'm a hunter)
Better run girl (better run girl)
Cuz I’m a hunter (I'm a hunter)
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
And I’m waiting, watching
like a hawk that drops in
and it’s over, gotta show her
That I’m coming for you
Who knew what I could do
Ooh yeah!
Better run girl, I’m a hunter
And it’s in my nature
Ohh yeah!
I'm just a little fucked up when it comes to me
Who knew what I could do
Better run girl, I'm a hunter
and it's in my nature
