Liam and The ladies Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You a theif
Stealin' my heart for no good reason
What's the reason
I guess we better off apart
He said he like the way I carry myself
The way I get it on my own and I ain't ask for no help
Keep my promises to you it ain't a soul I would tell
Caught you in a lie you told me don't you worry bae
Protect my heart from breakin' damn I guess it's better off this way
I'll be alone
I'm in my zone
I got no time to play today
Thought you knew the deal with us
You dumb you wasn't thinkin' straight
You could've cheated
You a theif
Stealin' my heart for no good reason
What's the reason
What's the reason
What's the reason
I guess we better off apart
In these lyrics, Liam and The ladies express feelings of betrayal and disappointment in a romantic relationship. The singer acknowledges that their partner could have been unfaithful or dishonest ("You could've cheated, you a thief"), which has caused them emotional pain and confusion ("Stealin' my heart for no good reason, what's the reason"). This suggests that the actions of the partner were unjustified and have led to the end of the relationship ("I guess we better off apart").
The next part of the lyrics highlights the positive qualities that the singer feels they possess. The partner had apparently mentioned their admiration for the singer's independence and self-sufficiency ("He said he like the way I carry myself, the way I get it on my own and I ain't ask for no help"). This implies that the singer has been responsible and reliable in the relationship, keeping their promises and being honest about their feelings ("Keep my promises to you it ain't a soul I would tell, my word a hundred speak my truth can't lie about how I felt").
However, the singer discovers that their partner has lied to them, breaking their trust ("Caught you in a lie you told me don't you worry bae"). This has made the singer realize that it is better for them to protect their own heart and move on from the relationship ("Protect my heart from breakin' damn I guess it's better off this way"). They choose to prioritize themselves and their own well-being, deciding to be alone and focus on their own personal growth ("I'll be alone, I'm in my zone, I got no time to play today").
The lyrics then express a sense of frustration towards the partner for not understanding the dynamics of the relationship ("Thought you knew the deal with us, you dumb you wasn't thinkin' straight"). This suggests that the partner may have underestimated the singer or taken them for granted. Ultimately, the lyrics repeat the idea that the partner's actions were detrimental and that the singer believes they are better off without them ("You could've cheated, you a thief, stealin' my heart for no good reason, what's the reason, what's the reason"). The repetition emphasizes the disappointment and finality of the decision to end the relationship ("I guess we better off apart").
