We Know
Fifth Harmony Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Same words
Same thirst
Just a different name

Same jokes
Same laugh
Guess that's just your game
You got at her
The same way you got at me
You show me everything I need to see

Even though you're so damn fine
I know I'm better off without ya
Even if you cross my mind
I would always have to doubt you

I won't believe a thing you say this time
All them other girls told me how you play your game
Yeah we know all about you
I know it probably worked for you
Last time
But them other girls told me how you play your game
Yeah we know all about you

Ooh we know we know we know
We know we know we know yeah
All about you
Ooh we know we know we know
We know we know we know yeah
All about you

First off you should really be ashamed
You won't entice me with that big 'ol chain
Can't have my number put that phone away
Maybe you should just stay in your lane

even though you're so damn fine
I know I'm better off without ya
Even if you cross my mind
I would always have to doubt you

I won't believe a thing you say this time
All them other girls told me how you play your game
Yeah we know all about you
I know it probably worked for you
Last time
But them other girls told me how you play your game
Yeah we know all about you

Ooh we know we know we know (know)
We know we know we know yeah
All about you (yeah)
Ooh we know we know we know (we know, we know)
We know we know we know (yeah)
All about you

I won't believe a thing you say this time




All them other girls told me how you play your game
Yeah we know all about you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Fifth Harmony's "We Know" depict a confident and fearless attitude towards a past toxic partner. The song is primarily addressing a manipulative ex-boyfriend, who the choir members have each experienced before. The first verse of the song showcases the repetition of detrimental habits of the ex, including same words, jokes, laugh and thirst with just a different name. The repetition of the same patterns is highlighted, revealing the player's game within the relationship, something that each member of the choir has encountered. The second verse, on the other hand, takes aim at the ex for attempting to win them back, using the big flashy chain and messages that won't receive any response or attention. The lyrics are a direct attack at the ex's tactics, indicating that their playtime is over, and the choir members won't fall for it again.


The chorus repeats "We know all about you" several times, indicating that the ex's game plan is no secret, and they won't fall back into it. Despite being tempted by the ex's charm, the choir members continually remind themselves that they should move on and do better without them. The lyrics "Even though you're so damn fine, I know I'm better off without ya" speak to the choir members' realization that physical attraction doesn't equate to a healthy relationship. These lyrics empower listeners to take charge of their lives, move on, and let go of the past.
