Ariana Grande’s song ‘Like I Do’ on the Petal album marks a turning point in the tone of the album, with the 33-year-old singer embracing her own power over a man.

She sings on the first verse, ‘Keep my heels tall, my ego small, but I’m still Grande / I’m making cents off of your nonsense / All that sh-t talk keeps me well-fed / Through thick and thin, you’re so locked in / You hate to love me.’

The Ariana Grande song’s chorus reveals she knows her power over the man, noting that he ‘needs’ her because ‘no one f–ks you like I do.’

The second verse appears to reference the media and some fans’ obsession with her, with lyrics like ‘Stay on your mind like all the time / Yeah, you still watching from the sides / Yeah, you still, still show up first in line / Yeah, you act like all your love is mine.’

Ariana recently dropped 12 songs on her new album Petal, including the title track and the lead single ‘Hate That I Made You Love Me.’

The singer’s confidence and newfound power are on full display in ‘Like I Do,’ a testament to her growth as an artist.
