Lyrics
You need to mind your own
You should focus on your own affairs
The girl is a fan
The girl in question is a fan of something or someone
I'm out of breath
The speaker is exhausted or overwhelmed
Running from jealousy
Avoiding or escaping from feelings of envy
I'm seeing visions of my enemy
Experiencing hallucinations or intense thoughts about an adversary
You thought that I'd knock down your house of cards
Addressing the assumption that the speaker would expose someone's vulnerabilities or deceit
Didn't think I'd see right through ya
Expressing the ability to see through someone's facade or deception
Right through ya ohh
Emphasizing the clarity of perception through deception
You thought that I'd knock down your house of cards
Reiteration of the speaker's ability to reveal hidden truths
Didn't know that I would fool ya
Highlighting the surprise factor in the speaker's ability to deceive
Fool ya ohh
Underlining the unexpected nature of the speaker's actions
Don't act like you like me
Advising someone not to pretend to like the speaker
I know you're cynical
Acknowledging the other person's skepticism or distrust
Tryin to complicate things
Pointing out attempts to complicate the relationship or situation
(la la la la la la, la la la la la la)
(Refrain) – Possibly indicating a sense of repetition or cyclic complications
Holdin' onto you
Holding onto a person amidst external complications
While she's holdin' onto me
Describing a situation where someone else is also holding onto the speaker
Tryin to complicate things
Reiterating the attempt to complicate matters
(la la la la la la, la la la la la la)
(Refrain) – Repeated emphasis on complicating factors
You thought that I'd knock down your house of cards
Restating the ability to expose someone's vulnerabilities
Didn't think I'd see right through ya
Reaffirming the capability to see through deception
Right through ya ohh
Emphasizing the clarity of perception through deceit
You thought that I'd knock down your house of cards
Repeating the assertion of revealing hidden truths
Didn't know that i would fool ya
Reiterating the surprise element in the speaker's ability to deceive
Fool ya ohh
Underlining the unexpected nature of the speaker's actions
You thought that I'd knock down your house of cards
Reiterating the ability to expose someone's vulnerabilities
Didn't think I'd see right through ya
Reaffirming the capability to see through deception
Right through ya ohh
Emphasizing the clarity of perception through deceit
You thought that I'd knock down your house of cards
Repeating the assertion of revealing hidden truths
Didn't know that I would fool ya
Reiterating the surprise element in the speaker's ability to deceive
Fool ya ohh
Underlining the unexpected nature of the speaker's actions
