Background and release

"You Got Me, Part II" was first announced as a single during a brief interview with Fox 5 Washington D.C.'s anchorman Wisdom Martin.[1] Beginning on April 13, 2020, "You Got Me, Part II" was made available for pre-order.[2] A week later, "You Got Me, Part II" was officially released April 20, 2020 on all digital platforms.[3]

Lyrically, the song chronicles the protagonist's realization that she has unexpected feelings for someone she had no intention of falling for. "You got me boy/Yeah you got me/I thought I was stronger than this/ You had at me hello/ I ain't use to this" Mýa sings with conviction on the song's chorus.[6] Vocally, in the verses, Mýa's voice is rich and robust which serves as contrast to her light, brighter tone in the song's multi-layered chorus.[6]
