Songfacts®:

• This piece of power pop is, along with "Rockstar 101," the rockiest track that Rihanna recorded to this point. The song was written by Rihanna, Timbaland protégé James Fauntleroy and the producer Brian Kennedy, who also helmed her hit "Disturbia."
• Lyrically the song appears to be looking back at Rihanna's relationship with Chris Brown and their breakup after his attack on her after an argument in a rented car. Many of the tracks on Rated R appear to touch on her tumultuous relationship with Brown. She told MTV News: "This album is an expression of all those feelings that I went through in the last eight months, just different emotions. All of it isn't angry, all of it isn't dark and sad, 'cause I didn't go through that the whole time. That was part of it. It was really a roller coaster, and you get that when you're listening to the album."
