NOTE: This song was pre-released in July 2023.

ABOUT/MEANING: 'Do It Like That' captures the exhilarating rush of admiration and attraction toward someone whose individuality and unapologetic self-expression make them impossible to ignore. This admiration becomes a mirror: by appreciating what makes someone else shine, the boys* are able to recognize the value of being unapologetically themselves as they step into adulthood and learn to navigate life on their own terms. The song celebrates the joy and power of living authentically and the magnetic force of confidence. In a world that often demands conformity, 'Do It Like That' encourages the boys to embrace what makes them unique and to take pride in being boldly themselves.
