However, it is Stith’s solo music that allows him to shine the brightest, with his own production and incomparable falsetto. His 2017 debut project Can We Talk garnered attention and rave reviews from the likes of Complex, Billboard, HipHopDX and more and eventually led to his signing with BPG/RCA Records. Since then he has toured with August Alsina and just wrapped his time on H.E.R.’s “I Used To Know Her” tour. With his versatility, passion and latest release of his Good Company EP that boasts features from Ty Dolla $ign, Quavo and Swae Lee, Stith is one to watch in 2019.
That Girl
Tone Stith Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yo, why you yelling? Why you trippin'?
I'm in the studio
I left my phone in the booth
Babe it's just me
I don't wanna hear it all the time, oh
Like "What you're doing"
When I be working all night, yeah
No no no, I, I'm not with that girl, no
Not in the morning, not in the evening time
Every day I do you right
No no no, I, I'm not with that girl
No no, no no, no no
Why you trippin' baby, I'm not with that girl, no
I'm not giving any worry 'bout the cell phone
You think I'm just ignoring all your calls
You don't even really know what's going on
She ain't even my type
Baby don't believe the hype, no
Please, stop blowing up my line
Cause I don't wanna hear it all the time, oh
Like "What you're doing"
"Baby who you're screwing"
When I be working all night, yeah
No no no, I, I'm not with that girl, no
Not in the morning, not in the evening time
Every day I do you right
No no no, I, I'm not with that girl
No no, no no, no no
Why you think I'm runnning game on you
You always call me, you're listening to too much Beyoncé
Girl you know you're my Beyoncé
Baby there ain't nothing going on
Just lay down baby, I'll be home, yeah girl
I know it's late, and I know you hate it
Don't you go and kill the vibe, oh
Cause girl you know you're mine
Don't wanna hear it all the time, oh
Like "What you're doing"
"Baby who you're screwing"
When I be working all night, yeah
No no no, I, I'm not with that girl, no
Not in the morning, not in the evening time
Every day I do you right
No no no, I, I'm not with that girl
Baby hold up
Why you trippin' I swear
She just showed up
Uninvited darling, she gets no love
Acting crazy like I don't give you enough
We been through this now
Baby hold up
Why you trippin'
She just showed up
Snapping pictures baby, she gets no love
Stop acting like you ain't the only one
Don't wanna hear it all the time, oh
Like "What you're doing"
"Baby who you're screwing"
When I be working all night, yeah
No no no, I, I'm not with that girl, no
Not in the morning, not in the evening time
Every day I do you right
No no no, I, I'm not with that girl
No no, no no, no no
I'm not with that girl
The lyrics to "That Girl" by Tone Stith speak about a lover who accuses the singer of cheating and constantly calling and texting him who he's with. He tries to assure her that she's the only one and that he's not with that girl she's accusing him of seeing. In the chorus, Tone repeats that he's not with that girl, not in the morning or in the evening time, and that he always does his lover right. The second verse is Tone telling his lover that he's not ignoring her calls or running any game on her, and that she's his Beyoncé. He asks her to stop killing the vibe, as she knows that she's his.
The third verse starts with Tone asking his lover to hold up and not trip. He explains to her that the girl she's accusing him of seeing just showed up uninvited, and he doesn't give her any love. He tells her that he's been through this before and what she's accusing him of is not true. In an attempt to reassure her, he asks her to stop acting like she's not the only one and that he's not with that other girl.
In the song, the singer's lover struggles with trust issues and finds it difficult to believe that he's faithful to her. Tone Stith tries to communicate with her and reassure her that he's all about her, and that she's the only one he wants. Overall, the song is about reaffirming love, trust, and underscore the importance of good communication.
