Lyrics:
Once a cheat always a cheat
Once a cheat always a cheat

You swear you’re innocent but that’s not the case
You’ve got that guilt written all over your face
You busy body, you can’t stay in one place
You were out romancing and now you’re asking for one more chance

I’mma give you one more
One more minute
Get up out here
Take all your shit
I’m about to reach my limit

Boy please

Tell me that girl is just a friend
Make me believe in you and then
You do it again
You hurt me again and again
Once a cheat always a cheat
That’s why I don’t believe in what you’re saying to me Oh no no no
Once a cheat always a cheat
I shoulda used my mind, I shoulda left you last time

Oh did you really think I wouldn’t find out
Bout all your late-night escapades on the town
(Yes I know)
What happened, you said you’d be holding me down Cuz you call a man your lover but there’s others doing that My love is not a record, I’m not trying to run it back

One more, one more minute
Get up out here
Take all your shit
I’m about to reach my limit

Boy please

Tell me that girl is just a friend
Make me believe in you and then
You do it again
You hurt me again and again
Once a cheat always a cheat
That’s why I don’t believe in what you’re saying to me Oh no no no
Once a cheat always a cheat
I shoulda used my mind, I shoulda left you last time

I just can’t believe
You’d cheat on me
Tell me one thing:
Was it worth it baby?
Cuz it’s over, I’m never looking back now It’s the past, what we had is ruined
It’s time that I focus on me
So I threw out your stuff, left your ass for the streets

Once a cheat always a cheat
That’s why I don’t believe in what you’re saying to me Oh no no no
Once a cheat always a cheat
I shoulda used my mind, I shoulda left you last time
Shoulda left you last time
Always baby
Once a cheat, always a, always a cheat
Baby

Who knew our Mahalia and our childhood sensation Jojo would join to make lovely music like this. Never lose hope on true art and music that keeps on giving memories to the world.

[nenestrella]

JoJo and Mahalia on a 90s/00 r&b type song, this is clearly magical 🫶🏼 Love from France 🇫🇷

[meiamdom]

A BANGERRR THE MODERN DAY “THE BOY IS MINE” u girls slayed this 🎉❤

[pettyking]

The split screen fish eye shots were the most late 90s / early 2000s thing I’ve seen in a minute. I love everything about this visual. The song is amazing too, and has a BRIDGE. It’s also really cool that even though JoJo is the feature, she’s still prevalent throughout the song along with her verse. I loved everything about this moment. They both ate this

[patrickkumi]

This gives me very The Boy Is Mine pt. 2 vibes. Like after they both stopped being birds and realized the guy is trash. I’m feeling it!!!

[Work-pfsi]

It’s so painful sometimes knowing how painfully underrated Mahalia is

[FaithNjoki-dfmj]

❤️ Self-worth is so important. Let him go if he won't act right. I love the anthems she's giving us.

[LoveisKiing]

I absolutely adore the fact that Mahalia is a naturally thick gworl! It’s very rare seeing her body type in media and portrayed positively. LOVE that ❤

[justalonjhe]

This really need to blow up, people always say they want old music back well here you go.

[laurajacobs]

Love this evolution of The Boy Is Mine where it's women supporting women!!

[insertyourquarters]

I mean Jojo has been a favourite of mine since my teens but having Mahalia And Jojo together gives unexpected butterflies. Fabulous! ✨

[cairo]

Is it just me or do y’all hear a bit of the sample of “Hey Lover” by LL Cool J used through the song? The song snapped overall 😮‍💨👏🏽

[deeeeeeezzzzaaaa]

Jojo is my ultimate fave singer, this collab with Mahalia is amazing because I love her too ❤

[kaytlynabrams]

Giving me brandy and Monica vibesss and I love how Jojo doesn’t give up on being in the industry regardless of anything yasss girl and Mahalia just gets better and better as an artist 🥹❤️ THISSSS LOVE THEMM !!

[syncl_rity]

This song is 🥶🥵 great songwriting is back!
These two’s voices work really well together.
JoJo on background complemented Mahalia.
Mahalia as Brandy, and JoJo as Monica.

[YvonneJerCocktailsJer]

That boy is NOT mine! Love the video ☺️ Jojo really made the song next level! Hope we hear her on the charts again soon 👏👏

[loopstationyt]

It’s very much giving the boy is mine and I’m LIVING for it! Never expected a collab from these two but boy am I happy that we got one! The 90s vibes are immaculate 🔥

[WhelmedCupCake]

this song is just perfect, the jojo feature is unbelievable!
everything mahalia makes is

[s.o.]

I love that it’s never girl-on-girl hate in Mahalia’s vids. Always girl-on-girl love and empowerment

[annaonthemic]

In love! Two amazing artists in their prime, female empowerment and a throwback to the late 90s/ early naughties R&B…. Chef’s kiss 👌
