Ciipher members TAG and Keita are credited for writing the lyrics of the title track, as well as the other songs from their debut album. Composed by TAG and Mollo (Psycho Tension), "I Like You" starts out calm, but then it becomes an energetic song with a trap beat hook. It is a confession concerning all the things they love about someone.
A music video for "I Like You" was also shared on the same day as the release of the new K-pop group's first mini-album. Ciipher's debut MV stars Rain's wife, actress Kim Tae Hee.
