Truth Is
Mustard Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yeah
Ride through the night with my high beams on
Truth is, shawty got me goin' crazy
Truth is, I can't lie, you my favorite
Truth is, I'm too high, I'm too faded
Truth is, I put on for my foes
I can't talk 'bout shit I don't know
Cartier, feel like time froze
We just bust back, fuck a chit-chat
I got dollars, I never gotta go tit for tat
I be inside her throat like a Tic Tac
And she never ever give me lip
Sippin' on this potion, I'm flyer than fly
She say I'm the GOAT and she got a look in her eyes
Got a lot of vibes, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
I was taught to slide with a pole
Ride through the night with my high beams on
Truth is, shawty got me goin' crazy
Truth is, I can't lie, you my favorite
Truth is, I'm too high, I'm too faded
Truth is, I put on for my foes
I done seen a million knock down my door
I can't talk 'bout shit I don't know
Cartier, feel like time froze
We was at the trap house, had cash in the couch
New black Maybach when I'm backin' it out
We went out to eat, I spent some racks at TAO
I'm a real nigga, gotta keep it ten thousand
She gave me top-top, so I took her overseas
Took her to the dock, gotta cruise it on the beach
I got big knots, my Amiris go deep
And I can't lie, she got a hold on me, ayy
Ride through the night with my high beams on
Truth is, shawty got me goin' crazy
Truth is, I can't lie, you my favorite
Truth is, I'm too high, I'm too faded
Truth is, I put on for my foes
I done seen a million knock down my door
I can't talk 'bout shit I don't know
Cartier, feel like time froze
Ayy, hello
Hello
Ayy, what's happenin'?
Hey
Ayy, what you doin'?
Nothin' much, what you got goin' on?
Shit, bored, nigga, missin' you
Stop it, you is not thinkin' about me
You won't even let me phone my girl, bro
You play too much
I be thinkin' 'bout you, when I pull up on you, I'ma play that Fantasia
Whatever, when I be you
In Mustard's song "Truth Is," the artist presents a narrative that juxtaposes both his romantic and personal life against a backdrop of luxury and emotional truthfulness. The opening lines set a tone of urgency and ambiguity, as he reflects on his feelings for a woman who seems to have a powerful effect on himโone that drives him "crazy." By repeating "Truth is," Mustard emphasizes a sense of honesty and vulnerability, revealing the contradictions and confessions that often accompany passionate relationships. He articulates the notion of being "too high" and "too faded," suggesting that his emotional state is intertwined with his use of substances, perhaps hinting at escapism or the dizzying effects of love.
The song also explores themes of loyalty and companionship, particularly the reference to "putting on for my foes." This indicates a commitment to his friends or crew, suggesting that alongside his romantic pursuits, he remains grounded in his support system. He mentions "I done seen a million knock down my door," reflecting the struggles and challenges he's facedโone common in the lives of those navigating fame and success. His luxurious mentions of "Cartier" and time feeling like it "froze" symbolize not only wealth but also a kind of surreal experience brought on by both his lifestyle and the presence of this significant other, blending time and material wealth with emotional highs.
Moving to the more intimate side of the narrative, Mustard uses vivid imagery to convey his experiences and pleasures, both literal and metaphorical. Lines like "I be inside her throat like a Tic Tac" convey a physical intimacy that borders on playful, emphasizing his confidence and dominance within the relationship. He contrasts this with his assertion of never needing to engage in petty conflicts ("never gotta go tit for tat"), underlining a sense of maturity in managing romantic relationships. This balance of hedonism and sincerity creates a unique atmosphere: one where every pleasure comes with an awareness of deeper emotional currents and complexities.
Towards the end, there's a conversational interlude that injects a relatable element into the narrative. The casual dialogue between the characters lightens the mood, contrasting with the earlier heavy themes of desire and loyalty. This interaction reveals a sense of yearning and connection, portraying a playful banter that suggests both parties are thinking of each other. The line "I be thinkin' 'bout you" acknowledges the mutual feelings albeit playfully masked by distractions and wit. Overall, "Truth Is" reflects a rich tapestry of romance, self-discovery, and loyalty amidst the decadence of a life lived out loud, allowing a glimpse behind the curtain of fame into more intimate and authentic human experiences.
