Put yourself first, as Tyla and Tems sang on “No.1,” because some relationships drain more than they give. Walking away becomes survival when love turns toxic. The afrobeat-infused R&B sound is vibrant hammers on the fact that your peace matters more than holding onto something emotionally and mentally exhausting. Both artists remind us that leaving what no longer serves you opens doors to success everywhere else. Self-care is very important in times like this.

[Intro: Tyla]
Ah, yeah
[Verse 1: Tyla]
It wasn't workin'
I pretended
Tried to finish
You wanna turn it all around
Dodging feelings
I'm too real to forget
I don't reason
No compromisin'
[Chorus: Tyla]
Okay, I'm leavin' tonight
Okay, I'm good in my life
I gotta put me number one
No compromisin'
Free from your grip in the world
Feel like the million girl
I gotta put me number one
[Verse 2: Tems]
You don't give me nothing
Not begging you for something, something
Virtually wasted, virtually tainted
But it's not worth it (No)
You're not my safety
How dare you call me "babe" when you can't be trusted?
Holding me back, boy, when you make me exhausted
I won't do it, time is up for you
I gotta prioritize
No more compromisin' me
[Chorus: Tyla & Tems]
Okay, I'm leavin' tonight
Okay, I'm good in my life
I gotta put me number one
No compromisin'
Free from your grip in the world
Feel like a million girl
I gotta put me number one
No compromisin'
Okay, I'm leavin' tonight
Okay, I'm good in my life
I gotta put me number one
No compromisin'
Free from your grip in the world
Feel like the million girl
I gotta put me number one
No compromisin'
[Outro: Tyla & Tems]
No compromisin'
I gotta put me number one
