Yeah
Settle down, settle down, settle down
Girl, it's all over your face, there's someone taking my place
Guess that's something that I'm dealing with now
I guess there's nothing that I can do now

I see you in the city
Do they know you're with me?
Are you with me, baby?
Girl, you're with me, baby

'Cause maybe, close just isn't close enough
Maybe my passion just ain't enough
I can't feel that you love me, ooh
I can't feel that you love me, oh
Maybe, baby, I'm not listening
Maybe I just don't got what you need
I can feel that you love me, no
I can feel that you love me no more

Love me no more
Love me no more
Love me no more
Love me, me, me, yeah

About This Song

"Tbh" is a vulnerable R&B track that explores the painful realization of being replaced in a relationship, with PartyNextDoor confronting the inevitable end of a romance he's desperately trying to salvage. The song captures the raw emotions of seeing your partner with someone else while still clinging to hope, as evidenced in lyrics like "there's someone taking my place" and his repeated insistence that "you're with me baby" despite clear evidence to the contrary. Musically, the track features PartyNextDoor's signature moody, atmospheric production with minimalist beats and his characteristically smooth yet emotionally charged vocals that helped define the OVO Sound aesthetic. The song's power lies in its honest portrayal of denial and the struggle between accepting reality and holding onto false hope, themes that would become central to PartyNextDoor's influence on modern R&B. As one of the standout tracks from his debut project, "Tbh" helped establish him as a key figure in the mid-2010s wave of alternative R&B that prioritized emotional vulnerability over traditional bravado.
