Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But you won't
But you don't
Now delete my number from your phone
But you won't
You gotta go
Oh, line-by-line, gotta spell it right out
(Yeah)
I don't know what you're looking for
But I don't think it's me
I wish I could give you my all
Not caught in make believe
I don't feel how you feel
I'm just tellin' it like it is
I don't need you to say those words no more
I'm just tellin' it like it is (you got me, you got me)
I'm just tellin' it, tellin' it (you got me, you got me)
I'm just tellin' it like it is (you got me, you got me)
I'm just tellin' it, tellin' it (you got me, you got me)
I'm just tellin' it like it is (you got me, you got me)
I'm just tellin' it, tellin' it (you got me, you got me)
I'm just tellin' it like it is (you got me, you got me)
I'm just tellin' it, tellin' it (you got me, you got me)
I'm just tellin' it like it is
Yeah, hol' up, wait a minute, let's make this right
You're the only one thing that I need in my life
And I ain't never met a girl like you before
I could tell you everything if you need to know
We was perfect before and I made mistakes
Told you I was all in, we can raise the stakes
Even though I'm a player, I ain't contemplate
Now you on a vacay, hotel heartbreak
Champagne all day, on me, oh yeah
Miami with your friends, you ain't worried 'bout me
Got a room with a suite, so drunk, lose the key
And I know we ain't over so, the ring, you can keep, ayy
We be right back tomorrow night, yeah (tomorrow night)
It's for life, you know we ride or die, yeah (ride or die)
Single for the night but you still mine
And I'ma chill with this shawty just to kill the time, y'know
I'm just tellin' it like it is (you got me, you got me)
I'm just tellin' it, tellin' it (you got me, you got me)
I'm just tellin' it like it is (you got me, you got me)
I'm just tellin' it, tellin' it (you got me, you got me)
I'm just tellin' it like it is (you got me, you got me)
I'm just tellin' it, tellin' it (you got me, you got me)
I'm just tellin' it like it is (you got me, you got me)
I'm just tellin' it, tellin' it (you got me, you got me)
I'm just tellin' it like it is (you got me, you got me)
I'm just tellin' it, tellin' it (you got me, you got me)
I'm just tellin' it like it is (you got me, you got me)
I'm just tellin' it, tellin' it (you got me, you got me)
I'm just tellin' it like it is
The lyrics of "Like It Is," Kygo's collaboration with Zara Larsson and Tyga, talks about the struggle of a relationship where one partner is not fully invested. The chorus speaks about being direct and to-the-point in conveying that the other person's feelings are not reciprocated. The singer acknowledges that they cannot give the other person what they are looking for in a relationship, and wishes they could provide more but acknowledges that everything between them is just illusionary. The bridge sees Tyga lamenting about past mistakes in their relationship but assures the woman that he will not cheat on her anymore.

Maybe you should leave this girl alone
You should consider ending your relationship with this girl
But you won't
However, you won't actually do it
But you don't
You continue to stay with her despite the warning
Now delete my number from your phone
Remove my contact information from your device
But you won't
But it's unlikely that you will actually do this
You gotta go
It's best for you to leave the situation
Oh, line-by-line, gotta spell it right out
I will explain it to you clearly and thoroughly
I don't know what you're looking for
I'm uncertain about what you want
But I don't think it's me
But I don't believe that I am what you're searching for
I wish I could give you my all
I want to be able to give you everything, but I can't
Not caught in make believe
I won't be misled or fooled by illusions or fantasies
I don't feel how you feel
My emotions do not match yours
I'm just tellin' it like it is
I'm being honest and straightforward with you
I don't need you to say those words no more
I don't require you to repeat those particular phrases anymore
Yeah, hol' up, wait a minute, let's make this right
Wait a moment, let's fix this situation
You're the only one thing that I need in my life
You are the only thing I require in my life
And I ain't never met a girl like you before
I have never encountered someone like you
I could tell you everything if you need to know
I am willing to tell you anything you want to hear
We was perfect before and I made mistakes
We had an ideal relationship, but I messed it up
Told you I was all in, we can raise the stakes
I promised to commit to our relationship and increase the risk
Even though I'm a player, I ain't contemplate
Despite being a ladies' man, I did not consider the consequences
Now you on a vacay, hotel heartbreak
You're on vacation, heartbroken in a hotel
Champagne all day, on me, oh yeah
Drinking champagne all day, which is on me
Miami with your friends, you ain't worried 'bout me
You're in Miami with your friends, and not concerned about me
Got a room with a suite, so drunk, lose the key
You have a room with a suite and are so intoxicated that you lost the key
And I know we ain't over so, the ring, you can keep, ayy
I know our relationship isn't over, so you can keep the ring
We be right back tomorrow night, yeah (tomorrow night)
We'll be back together tomorrow night
It's for life, you know we ride or die, yeah (ride or die)
We're in this for the long haul, and we'll support each other no matter what
Single for the night but you still mine
You may be single for the night, but you're still mine
And I'ma chill with this shawty just to kill the time, y'know
I'll spend time with this girl just to pass the time, you know
I'm just tellin' it like it is
I'm being completely honest
I'm just tellin' it, tellin' it
I'm continuing to tell the truth
