This disco-inspired track finds Dua Lipa full of positivity following a breakup: Walk away You know how Don't start caring About me now The jealous ex just can't stand the fact that the singer is over their relationship. Dua Lipa tells him he's better off staying away rather than seeing her dancing with somebody else. "It's about moving on," Lipa told Radio.com.
