Don't Lie
Russ Lyrics

Yeah, yeah
Introduction to the song

You know who you are
Directly addressing the person(s) the song is about

This for you
The song is specifically dedicated to that person(s)

Baby, don't lie to me
Asking the person(s) not to lie

I don't know why you need
Expressing confusion as to why the person(s) feel the need to lie

To just lie, lie, lie
Emphasizing the repetition of the person(s) actions

Tell me why, why, why
Asking the person(s) to explain themselves

Ooh yeah
A musical interlude

Yeah, I been sippin' gin, you been sippin' Hennessy
Describing the setting/scene

I'm just tryna figure out why you pressin' me
Questioning why the person(s) is bothering him

'Cause you the one who's been Slick like Rick though
Pointing out the person(s) duplicitous behavior

Pretendin' to be innocent but you a nympho
Implying that the person(s) is secretly promiscuous

Who am I to judge? I know I got hoes too
Admitting his own flaws in the situation

But you're the only girl I wanna get close to
Expressing his desire to be with the person(s)

Girl, I meant every word that I told you
Affirming the sincerity of his previous statements

I feel like I don't know you, but I know you
Expressing confusion about the person(s) true character

Multiple women like a Saudi prince, (I'm coming)
Bringing up his own promiscuity

Straight from Atlanta, Fulton county shit (I got a)
Describing his background

Soft spot for hard headed women with potential
Describing the type of person(s) he is attracted to

The type of chicks who be fuckin' me confidential
Describing the secrecy of his relationships

I cut 'em off for you, probably too early though
Admitting that he ended previous relationships for the person(s)

'Cause you be fuckin' while textin' me, don't worry whoa
Pointing out the person(s) suspicious behavior

I see the game that you runnin', so I'm off you
Realizing that the person(s) is playing games and ending things

I ain't gon' call you, all I gotta say is
Deciding not to contact the person(s) anymore

I jumped in your pool, I dove head first
Returning to describing the setting/scene

I don't operate off fear
Stating a personal philosophy

If I'm not near the one I love
Talking about love in general

I'ma love the one I'm near
Deciding to focus on who is actually there with him

That's how you move, baby, I'm the same
Comparing his behavior to the person(s) he is addressing

But we don't gotta play that game
Tired of playing games with the person(s)

Just come through, fuck with me
Encouraging the person(s) to spend time with him

I just hope it's not too late
Expressing doubt that things can still work out

Yeah, I can tell you been dealin' with pussy
Assuming the person(s) has been involved with other people

You regular with famous bodies, you feelin' your pussy
Accusing the person(s) of being overly self-confident and attention-seeking

'Cause you ain't ever been rejected, you're just constantly requested
Implying that the person(s) is used to getting what they want

I'm the only one that's told you "no" and that shit makes you question
Bringing up the fact that he has not given in to the person(s) demands

Everythin' you thought about the power that your pussy holds
Questioning the person(s) view of themselves and their sexuality

'Cause I got what they want, if I fuck you, your pussy's gold
Implying that the person(s) is trying to use sex to gain something from him

You're used to these tier twos, I know what you got pierced too
Continuing to question the person(s) sincerity

I thought that shit was between you and me
Upset that the person(s) has not kept things secret

This is for all of the women that just be lyin' and sinnin'
Extending his message to all women who behave similarly

Thinkin' I don't know, yeah
Claiming awareness of what is happening

I'm more connected than ever and when you see me, do better
Knowing more than the person(s) thinks he does and asking them to change their behavior

Just know there's no hope
Giving up on the situation

For you, you, you
Directly addressing the person(s) the song is about

Yeah, for you, you, you
Repeating the direct address for emphasis
