This link takes you the the lyrics of "Cheated" by Mike Posner. This is a song in the present pop culture of todays society. This songe refers to a guy that was in love with a girl. He loves this girls but the finds out that she has not been faithful to him. He then becomes angry and says that he should have returned that favor and cheated on her. He also blames the situations on his friends, saying that they should have told him about the kind of girl that he was with. He seeks revenge on this girl and wants her to feel the same way that he felt when she cheated on him.

This song uses a lot of repitition of the fact that he now seeks revenge by repeating, "I should have cheated on you" many times. This is an emotion that many people can sympathize with and thus makes the song very relatable. This song shows how he was completely in love with this girl and then he wanted to seek revenge on her. In a way this can act as a bionary of love and hate within the song.
