Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Got so many names between your homegirls
Always playing games, it's getting old girl
I can do the same cause it's a cold world
I wonder if you undercover
Seems like everybody out here got your number
You ain't just a hot girl for the Summer
Should've seen the signs from
Got a couple girls on the side
Even some of your friends wanna ride
Why do I try to do right?
It's out of sight and it's out of mind
I try to keep you on the main line
Something told me you was on that creep creep
You fucking niggas at the same time
I recognize you belong to the streets
I see, baby i see
You wake up, scheme
And go to sleep then repeat i see, baby
I see i see you belong to the streets
You been playing foul on the low (Low)
Thought I wouldn't know it (Oh no)
You tried to hide it
Didn't think that you would show it (Show)
Whole time I was seeing through them games
(Games) girl you must've thought that you
Was dealing with a lame, Oh no
You was trying to play me sneaking 'round
You was trying to do me shady
It might be Karma, girl I never know
Back to the streets girl that's
Where I gotta go girl, you know I got-
Got a couple girls on the side
(You know, yeah)
Even some of your friends wanna ride (Ride)
Why do I try to do right?
It's out of sight and it's out of mind
(Out of mind)
I try to keep you on the main line
Something told me you was on that creep creep
You fucking niggas at the same time
I recognize you belong to the streets
I see, baby i see
You wake up, scheme
And go to sleep then repeat i see, baby
I see i see you belong to the streets
To the streets, yeah, yeah
In "Streets" by TRAETWOTHREE, the lyrics address a complicated and deceptive relationship. The singer acknowledges that the girl he is involved with surrounds herself with different groups of friends and constantly engages in manipulative games. He admits that he can also play these games because of the harsh and unforgiving nature of the world they live in. This suggests that the relationship is marked by a lack of trust and genuine connection.
The lyrics imply that the girl may not be who she appears to be. There is a sense of suspicion that she may be hiding her true intentions or leading a double life. The singer observes that many people seem to know about her actions, indicating that her reputation precedes her. He also suggests that she may not just be a temporary attraction during the summer but someone with a long-standing pattern of behavior. The mention of "all the rubbers" implies that she may be sexually promiscuous.
The singer confesses to being aware of the girl's unfaithfulness. He acknowledges how he has tried to keep the relationship intact but eventually realizes that she has been cheating on him and even some of her friends are interested in being with him. This betrayal leads him to question why he even tries to do what is right in the first place, as the girl's actions are out of sight, out of mind for him.
Moreover, the lyrics depict the singer's realization that he has been played by the girl. Despite her attempts to hide her infidelity, he was able to see through her games all along. He acknowledges that she belongs to the streets, meaning she is more aligned with a lifestyle of deception, unfaithfulness, and promiscuity rather than committed to a genuine and loyal relationship. The repetition of "I see" emphasizes the singer's understanding of the situation and the girl's true nature.
In conclusion, "Streets" by TRAETWOTHREE delves into a manipulative and unfaithful relationship where the girl's deceit and promiscuity become apparent to the singer. The lyrics reflect feelings of betrayal, suspicion, and the realization that the girl belongs to a lifestyle that prioritizes playing games and pursuing multiple partners. The song portrays a sense of disappointment and a need for the singer to detach himself from the toxic relationship and return to the streets, symbolizing a return to a more honest and authentic way of life.
