If you don't know me I'm S-I-O-N-E
Introduction to the artist's name

You ain't fo' me You ain't real, you a phony
The singer is addressing someone who is not genuine

Lookin' at me like I did you wrong Lookin' like I shoulda known all alo-lo-long
The artist is being accused of something and the other person is blaming them for not knowing better

Liar Word got out without a flyer
The other person is being accused of lying and spreading rumors without any promotion

Doesn't matter to me as to why All I gotta know is that you lie-lie-lie-lie-lie
The artist is acknowledging that whatever the reason is for the lies, it doesn't change the fact that the other person is not truthful

When it comes to women I don't really see a difference Lord knows I'm right, can I get a witness
The singer is talking about how he treats all women equally and is looking for support for this statement

They get overconfident and then they want distance You give 'em distance, they hit someone else for assistance
The artist is discussing the behavior of some women which leads to them seeking out others for help when they are given space

Honesty the one and only thing on my wishlist I been let down, each and every instance
The singer values honesty above everything and has been disappointed in the past with dishonesty

Even if you got good business Shawty gone if you ain't ballin' like the Pistons
The singer is stating that even if a person is successful, if they are not able to maintain a certain level of wealth, they will lose the interest of others

Someone tol' me You tried gettin' with the brodee Passcode changed on ya phone Seen this many times befo'-woah-oh-woah-oh
The singer has been informed that the other person has attempted to cheat and changed their phone password, indicating that this is not the first time

Oh, ya busted Pretty as you are I'm disgusted Knew that I was better on my own Hopin' that you feelin' all alo-lo-lo-lo-lone
The artist is disappointed to find out that the other person has been lying and is hoping that they feel alone as a result

I believe that love is hard to come by It could be all that you want if it's done right Heartbreak University Alumni Learned to never say "I love you", but get tongue-tied
The artist has experienced heartbreak and knows that love is difficult to find, but still believes it is worth it. They have also learned to avoid saying "I love you" because it leads to complicated emotions

I understand that I ain't everything you needed It ain't enough for you to justify you cheatin' All you had to do was love me like you mean it Instead you tried to hide it from me, but I seen it
The singer acknowledges that they may not have been everything the other person needed, but that doesn't justify their infidelity. The other person should have been honest about their feelings and loved the singer genuinely

Why-yah-yah-yay girl Woah not one more lie girl Baby I tried Time & time Tried to ignore all the signs Bye girl You can't be my girl 'Cause you lie-yah-yah-yah-yah-yah-yah-yaah Woah, why...
The singer is finally fed up with the other person's lies and is ending the relationship

Yet you still lie Don't know why You ain't righ-yah-yah-yah-ight You ain't gotta Lie-lie-lie-lie Yet you still lie (Lie-lie-lie-lie-lie) Don't know why (Why) You ain't righ-yah-yah-yah-ight
The chorus is repeated, emphasizing that the artist is aware of the other person's lies and is not satisfied with the status of their relationship
