Mariah Carey included “Infinity” as a bonus track on her #1 To Infinity number-one songs compilation. The single was released on April 27, 2015, peaking at number eighty-two on the Billboard Hot 100. “‘Infinity’ is about loving yourself first,” Mariah told Extra in 2015. “There's a section of the song where it's like a chant: ‘You're leaving, you're leaving, you're out the door. Infinity loving me more and more,’ meaning you have to love yourself first. It can't be all about somebody else's thing or their issues — it has to be you. And then you can deal with the rest of the things in your life.”
The Why You Mad? remix of “Infinity,” which features French Montana, Justin Bieber and T.I., premiered on TMZ in August 2015.

Why you mad,
Talkin' 'bout you're mad
Could it be that you just lost the best you've ever had
That's your bag
Yup, that's too bad
Show is over, you ain't gotta act
Name hold weight like kilos
Boy you actin so corny like Fritos
Wouldn't have none of that without me, though
Ain't none of my business
It's tea, though
Out of ammo, gotta reload
If life was a game you're a free throw
It's nothing that you don't already know
Close the door
Lose the key
Leave my heart on the mat for me
I was yours eternally
There's an end to infinity
To infinity
To infinity
How I say this
Fact that you still exist
No disrespect
No second thought
It truly, truly is
Truthfully, I'm through with this
Why are we still doing this
Answer the phone like 'Who is this?'
Take your head and knock some sense
Je ne comprends pas
Ain't no compliments (duh)
Ain't no being friends (duh)
Ain't no false pretense (duh)
Ain't no make amends (duh)
Ain't no come agains (duh)
That's the story… ain't no happy ends
Close the door
Lose the key
Leave my heart on the mat for me
I was yours eternally
There's an end to infinity
To infinity
To infinity
Is it lack of ice got you so cold
Have you ever felt this on your own
Why you tryin to play like you're so grown
Everything you own boy you still owe
Close the door
Lose the key
Leave my heart on the mat for me
I was yours eternally
There's an end to infinity
To infinity
To infinity
You're leavin, you're leavin, you're out the door
Infinity lovin me more and more
You're leavin, you're leavin, you're out the door
Infinity lovin me more and more
Cause I believe infinity is more than just a made up dream
I believe infinity is more than just a made up dream

Mariah:
But why?
Why…
French Montana:
Baby why you mad? Go on, tell me why you mad
Pack your shit up in your bag and you're leavin' out the back
And you hoppin' in that Benz truck, callin' all your friends up
Twisted off the liquor, talkin' crazy, can't stand up
Twisted off the vodka, drink some water
And I'm goin' crazy tryna get my life in order
Every time we pull up all my dogs got their hood up
I was tryna pull my hood up, got me ridin' with my hood up, Lord
From the bottom to the top and you know it
Sleepin', one eye open, baby, like Fetty Wap
We be grindin' to the top, we never fallin'
Bad bitches, they be callin'
European cars roller
Mariah:
Why you mad
Talkin' 'bout you're mad
Could it be that you just lost the best you've ever had
That's your bag
Yup, that's too bad
Show is over, you ain't gotta act
Close the door
Lose the key
Leave my heart on the mat for me
I was yours eternally
There's an end to infinity
To infinity
To infinity
Justin Bieber:
It's like every time you call me
You know I can't leave you lonely
Cause I was always there when you need me
You said that you'd be there 'til the end
What must I say?
I never thought it would happen this way
But I can tell, you're down again
Yeah and I'ma fall, stayin' to the end
Mariah:
Close the door
Lose the key
Leave my heart on the mat for me
I was yours eternally
There's an end to infinity
To infinity
To infinity
T.I.:
It started fuck you and your opinion
My heart cold, got no feelin'
Turnt up, got no ceilin'
Can't come down, no thank you
I know I'm no angel
And I don't know why I go straight to danger
Can't explain it, lil' suspicion done drove her crazy
And now she goin' through the phone
Shit doin' what she wants
You're surely delusional, losin' your mind right now
But I bet you'll miss me when I'm gone
Get the fuckin' with the suckas if you want
You finna go out back
Know I had law and lost it
Now you know I'm mad, but hold up
How you know I'm mad though?
Mariah / French Montana:
Baby why you mad? Go on, tell me why you're mad
Pack your shit up in your bag and you're leavin' out the back
Baby why you mad? Go on, tell me why you're mad
Pack your shit up in your bag and you're leavin' out the back
Baby why you mad? Go on, tell me why you're mad
Baby why you mad? Go on, tell me why you're mad
Pack your shit up in your bag and you're leavin' out the back
Baby, why you mad
Oh baby, I wanna know
