Life's A Drug

I, wanna be the one you love,
Don't ever just give up,
Never wanna use you like a drug...

Keep your promise and just keep the faith,
And lock down the ones that will keep you safe,
I ain't about to make up shit, that be so Two Faced,
Touch base with you daily with a home cooked plate,
They said we'd never make it but just look at us now,
Started with a dream, now we pullin' in crowds,
They told me to be careful not to take this route,
Expectations high as clouds, they still showin' me doubt,
Why would I, listen to someone else,
I know I will, do what's best for myself,
Hold you down, be the best I can be,
Don't let no one, try to tell your story,
Always gon' discredit, but the claims have no merit,
Imma always be indebted, until the moment that we dead it,
Our love will be apparent, imma always be transparent,
Even when we are separate, we gon' always be connected,

I, wanna be the one you love,
Don't ever just give up,
Never wanna use you like a drug...

Been used in the past, I guess it kind of hurted,
I know that ain't a word, it was really a diversion,
I never open up and I got trust issues,
Every time I think about ya I say "Fuck no I don't miss you"
I mean i'm sorry, I ain't supposed to think that,
Like the names you called me, that you can't take back,
When you put me on the street, I got my shit packed,
Took what I could carry, lil' duffel and a book bag,
Didn't have a car, barely had a job,
Every time I went to bed, took my pillow and I sobbed,
Asking God why me... Did I do something wrong?
Thought I was crazy, It was you all along,
That changed my life forever, made me feel like I was lesser,
Thought I would never measure, felt all the fuckin' pressure,
I was 'posed to be your treasure, even in the bad weather,
Yea you thought that you was clever, i'm glad we not together...

This, made me who I was,
Ain't the same blood,
Different from the way I grew up...

I wanna catch a vibe I ain't tryna catch a case,
Take you out to dinner, act like it's our first date,
Comin' home from work with some flowers and a vase,
Hit you with a text sayin' "Babe i'm just runnin' late,"
I want that real connection, someone just to talk to,
Someone to lean on, we go out and just flaunt too,
Ain't nobody comin' it's just us two,
Yea we poppin' out matchin' fresh Dolce Gabban suits,
Need a ride or die that'll always hold me down,
Who knows that she's a Queen, always fixin' her crown,
Proud to say my name even when i'm not around,
Only one call away, I ain't gotta be in town,
All the shit I been through really showed me how to treat people,
One thing bout this world is that the outcomes never been equal,
Praise be to God that I conquered all this vicious evil,
Reason that I made it is because that I am not feeble,
You gotta be strong you gotta be tough,
Nobody said it's easy, this shit really be rough,
I made it out alive and it's with a couple scuffs,
But I played my cards right, didn't even have to bluff,

I, wanna be the one you love,
Don't ever just give up,
Never wanna use you like a drug...
This, made me who I was,
Ain't the same blood,
Different from the way I grew up...
I, love you so damn much,
Please don't give me up,
Your love is just my drug.
