Eye On You
Bhi Bhiman Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm seeing how all the jealousy grows
It starts with a fertile mind and a suspicious lie
"I'll be out late. There's food for you. Its my volunteer night."
Do you think I'm dumb? I'm just a man who hasn't a clue?
I got my eye on you
You're hanging up on my calls and always busting my balls
A man with only one thing on his mind
Has stole your heart and left me far behind
Our love is a roulette that's overdue
I got my eye on you
You don't talk to me no more like we've nothing to say
You're cattin' 'round like a harlot in a Shakespearean play
I'll find me a god-fearing girl and she'll treat me so good
You just laugh at me and say, "Sucker, maybe you should."
I'm a pain, I'm just a rock inside your shoe
I got my eye on you
The song "Eye On You" by Bhi Bhiman is a heart-wrenching portrayal of a man who feels betrayed by his lover. The lyrics speak of the singer's realization that his partner is cheating on him and the feelings of jealousy and mistrust that arise from this realization. The song starts with the singer admitting that he is just discovering what lovers have known, implying that he is inexperienced in relationships. He goes on to talk about how jealousy grows from a fertile mind and a suspicious lie like his partner being out late on her "volunteer night".
The singer then questions whether his partner thinks he is dumb, but states that he actually has his eye on her and is aware of her infidelity. He speaks of how his partner is hanging up on his calls and always "busting his balls" when he questions her whereabouts. He talks about the man with only one thing on his mind who has stolen his partner's heart and left him far behind. The love between the singer and his partner is compared to a roulette game that is overdue.
As the song progresses, the singer expresses his frustration with his partner's cattin' around and how she no longer talks to him like they have anything to say to each other. He contemplates finding a god-fearing girl who will treat him well, while his partner laughs at him and calls him a sucker. The song ends with the singer admitting that he is just a pain and a rock inside his partner's shoe, but he still has his eye on her.
Overall, "Eye On You" lyrics are a powerful portrayal of the pain of betrayal and infidelity in a relationship. The use of vivid imagery and metaphors like the roulette game and the rock inside the shoe make the lyrics all the more impactful.
