  • Don't think they know the truth
    Say they saw (A-A-to the L-I-Y-A-H)
    I don't think they know, how could they know
    I don't think they know the truth
    Say they saw
    I don't think they know, how could they know

    Don't let them tell you any different
    Yea yea yeah they don't know about us, they don't know about it
    I owe it all to you
    Yea yea yeah they don't know about us, they don't know about it
    And as much as I messed up, always give me your best love
    Yea yea yeah they don't know about us, they don't know about it
    Sometimes I wonder what I did to deserve you
    Yea yea yeah they don't know about us, they don't know about it
    They gon' talk about it (gon' talk about it)
    Gon' try to change your mind about it
    Gon' tell you things you don't wanna hear
    But we good (don't worry 'bout it)
    So when they talk about (they talk about it)
    Just let 'em know we already got it
    Just tell 'em that we gon' work at it, we good (don't worry 'bout it)

    I don't think they know the truth
    Say they saw
    I don't think they know, how could they know
    I don't think they know the truth
    Say they saw
    I don't think they know, how could they know

    Don't listen to (how could they know?)
    What people say (how could they know?)
    They don't know about (how could they know?)
    'Bout you and me (how could they know?)

    At my best you love me
    Yea yea yeah they don't know about us, they don't know about it
    Even though I act my worse
    Yea yea yeah they don't know about us, they don't know about it
    And I know that it's different, feels like we're best friends, we connected
    They don't know about us, they don't know about it
    What did I do to deserve you
    Yea yea yeah they don't know about us, they don't know about it
    They gon' talk about it (gon' talk about it)
    Gon' try to change your mind about it
    Gon' tell you things you don't wanna hear
    But we good (don't worry 'bout it)
    So when they talk about (they talk about it)
    Just let 'em know we already got it
    Just tell 'em that we gon' work at it, we good (don't worry 'bout it)

    I don't think they know the truth
    Say they saw
    I don't think they know, how could they know
    I don't think they know the truth (say they saw)
    Say they saw
    I don't think they know, how could they know

    Don't listen to (how could they know?)
    What people say (how could they know?)
    They don't know about (how could they know?)
    'Bout you and me

    How could they know?
    How could they know?
    They don't know about us, they don't know about it (how could they know?)
    How could they know?
    They don't know about us, they don't know about it (how could they know?)

    I thank you for the autographs
    And the cheers over the years
    You stood by me, you didn't doubt me
    I think you want some more
    I do more than sing
    I model now, actin' now
    Plus I got my own movie now (ooh yeah)
    After all the awards
    That they gave me, you stood by me
    You didn't play me, you didn't doubt me
    Think you want some more
    I truly believe that
    If it wasn't all for you
    I don't know what I would do

    I don't think they know the truth
    Say they saw
    I don't think they know, how could they know
    I don't think they know the truth (they don't know)
    Say they saw
    I don't think they know, how could they know

    Don't listen to (how could they know?)
    What people say (how could they know?)
    They don't know about (how could they know?) (they don't know about us, babe)
    'Bout you and me (how could they know?) Writer/s: Benjamin Bush, Bob Hope Robinson, Jeffery Leon Walker Jr., Jonathan David Buck, Maurice Nathan Simmonds, Melvin II Hough, Rivelino Raulo Wouter, Tim Kelley
