"My tongue is sacred, I speak upon what I like," she sings on the bridge. "Protected, sexy, discerning with my time. Your energy is yours and mine is mine."
She adds, "My face is sitting, I don't need no disguise. Don't comment on my body, do not reply. Your business is yours, and mine is mine."
This song is Carey and Grande's first proper duet — but it's not their first collaboration. They appeared with Jennifer Hudson on a re-release of Carey's holiday track "Oh Santa!," in December 2020. On the song Grande and Carey managed to harmonized their whistle tones, a feat only true vocal queens could accomplish.
