Songfacts®:

• Future and Metro Boomin first linked up back when Metro was still in high school. Metro shot some beats over to rapper Propain, who was in cahoots with Future at the time. When Propain hit up Miami to chill with Future, he needed some fresh beats, so Metro sent them over. That's how the hit "Karate Chop" was born in 2013.
  
  After graduating, Metro packed his bags and made the move to Atlanta, keeping the vibes flowing with Future. From 2013 to 2017, Metro was the maestro behind some of Future's sickest tracks on the Billboard Hot 100, including "Jumpman" (2015) and "Mask Off" (2017).
  
  Move ahead to December 2022, when Metro dropped his second album, Heroes & Villains. It features several fresh bangers with Future, "Superhero (Heroes & Villains)" and "Too Many Nights," which had fans vibing hard.
  
  On March 22, 2024, Future and Metro Boomin unleashed We Don't Trust You, their first collaborative studio album. This song is the title track.
• "We Don't Trust You" sets the tone for the album, with a slow-burning trap vibe laying down a thick layer of paranoia. Future and Metro paint a picture of skepticism and caution, detailing a world where trust is rare and everyone's got their own agenda.
• Many fans believe that "We Don't Trust You" is a diss track aimed at Drake. Here's why:
  
  Future's lyrics on the song include lines like "fake written all over you" and "sneak dissin', I don't understand, dog," which can be interpreted as shots at Drake. The repetition of "dog" might also be a reference to Drake's 2023 album For All The Dogs.
  
  The release of the song coincided with rumors of a brewing feud between Future and Drake. Kendrick Lamar also dissed Drake (and J. Cole) on his verse on the We Don't Trust You track "Like That."
  
  Industry figures like Drake's father and fellow rappers reacted to the song as a diss track aimed at Drake. For example, Rick Ross, who features on the album, unfollowed Drake on social media after the song's release.
• The title is a nod to Metro's famous tagline, made iconic by Future: "If Young Metro don't trust you, I'm gon' shoot you," straight from Future's verse on Uncle Murda's 2015 track "Right Now." That tagline's been Metro's stamp ever since, popping up on hits like "Jumpman."
• Oh, and let's not forget the samples – "We Don't Trust You" hooks into "Smiling Faces Sometimes" by the Undisputed Truth and throws in some dialogue from 2Pac's 1996 movie Bullet.
• In the United States, We Don't Trust You debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200. It marked Future's ninth and Metro's fourth chart-topping album in the country.
