I know what you did...
I know what you did
I know
So I'ma let you taste her
I ain't washing my sins
I ain't washing my sins
Now we're lying about the nights
Hiding it all behind the smiles
Take a look at what you did
You probably thought that you'd break my heart
You probably thought that you'd make me cry
But baby it's okay
I swear it's okay
'Cause I know everything
I know everything
I know everything
I know everything
Now these tops don't twist like they did before
Tried to keep you out
And you are done
But baby it don't hurt
Oh, like you thought it would
The more of you the merrier
Now we're lying about the nights
Hiding it all behind the smiles
Take a look at what you did, hey
You probably thought that you'd break my heart
You probably thought that you'd make me cry
Baby it's okay
It's okay
I know everything
I know everything
I know everything
I know everything
I know
So I'ma let you taste her
I ain't washing my sins
I ain't washing my sins
Now we're lying about the nights
Hiding it all behind the smiles
Take a look at what you did
You probably thought that you'd break my heart
You probably thought that you'd make me cry
But baby it's okay
I swear it's okay
'Cause I know everything
I know everything
I know everything
I know everything
Now these tops don't twist like they did before
Tried to keep you out
And you are done
But baby it don't hurt
Oh, like you thought it would
The more of you the merrier
Now we're lying about the nights
Hiding it all behind the smiles
Take a look at what you did, hey
You probably thought that you'd break my heart
You probably thought that you'd make me cry
Baby it's okay
It's okay
I know everything
I know everything
I know everything
I know everything

"You probably thought that break my heart.
You probably thought that you make me cry.
But baby it's okay,
I swear it's okay.
'Cause I know everything"
The message of the song is obvious. But I almost feel like the speaker of the song has to redeem himself by cheating on her because she cheated on him. Then he makes me think about the vicious cycle, and how love means nothing to anyone these days. Its just one big game of trickery.
When he's with her he knows that they both have their own secrets. They can smile, but they know better.
oh, yeah
ayy
I know what you did,
I know
So I'ma let you taste hurt
I ain't washin' my sins
I ain't washin' my sins
??
??
Take a good look at what you did
You probably thought that you'd break my heart
(oh, oh, oh, oh)
You probably thought that you'd make me crawl
but baby, it's OK
I swear it's OK
Cuz I know everything
I know everything
yeah
I know everything
I know everything
yeah
Now these tongues don't twist like they did before
Try to keep me up
and you are ??
But baby it don't hurt, oh, like you thought it would
The more of you, the merrier
oh, oh, oh, oh
??
??
Take a look at what you did
ooh, hey
You probably thought that you'd break my heart
You probably thought that you'd make me crawl
Baby, it's OK
it's OK
Ayy
I know everything
I know everything
"Now these tongues don't twist like they did before.
Tried to keep you up"
Would seem to make more sense that way. Seems to be about taking vengeance against a cheat. This song and the entire album blew me away!
