What Is Love?

Yeah
Call me so we can work it out, yeah
Call me so we can work it out, yeah
Call me so we can work it out
See I'm trying to figure out what is love all about, yeah

What is love? When every time you chase it, it runs
What is love? When every day it goes and it comes
What is love? I can't enjoy it ain't even fun
This can't be love, God it make me feel so dumb
What is love? When it's gone dip whenever it's mad
What is love? When it leaves and you ain't even sad?
What is love? When it forgets the times that we had
This can't be love, God it make me feel so bad, what is

Two (aye)
Three (aye)
Four (yeah)
How many times have my knees hit the floor
Praying to God for answers he seems to ignore
Just tell me what love is like please, I implore
I pose the question cause I never had the answer
Hate doing this tango, nigga I ain't no dancer
Used to think that love could always be straight up
Instead of walking hand in hand, it make me wait up
And wonder
Where it's at and will it ever come back?
Notice when shit get hard, it get to running like track (damn)
And when I let go it finds another in fact
I feel I push the shit away the more I try to attach
I get it
But love why you always fuck with me? (Why)
They warned me about you, they told me that you would up and leave (yeah)
I put my faith in you instead putting trust in me
Now I don't know what to believe (damn)

What is love? When every time you chase it, it runs
What is love? When every day it goes and it comes
What is love? I can't enjoy it ain't even fun
This can't be love, God it make me feel so dumb
When it's gone dip whenever it's mad
What is love? When it leaves and you ain't even sad?
What is love? When it forgets the times that we had
This can't be love, God it make me feel so bad, what is love

I'm trying to reconcile how I feel
Seem like everyone I love don't keep they part in the deal (damn)
The more I think the more I find it harder to heal
That type of shit will make a pure heart turn to steel
But we move
That's why I keep my standards low
Cause heartbreak's something I'm already planning for in advance
I'm really tired of doing this dance
It's so old, giving up but later give love a chance, yeah
Well you know me, I gotta write this down (yeah)
I pen this letter, yo how you like me now
I really mean no disrespect the head that wears the crown
Is hella heavy, hence this pressure that's weighing me down
I ain't okay but I'm far from depressed, just in my feelings
While I'm over here spilling my pain, you probably chilling
Maybe you being true, maybe painting me as the villain
But either way it go, I pray you listen yeah

What is love? When every time you chase it, it runs
What is love? When every day it goes and it comes
What is love? I can't enjoy it ain't even fun
This can't be love, God it make me feel so dumb
What is love? When it's gone dip whenever it's mad
What is love? When it leaves and you ain't even sad?
What is love? When it forgets the times that we had
This can't be love, God it make me feel so, wait hold up

Let's go back to the basics (yeah)
I know that love ain't infatuation with faces (it's not)
I know it permeates time and through all spaces (facts)
I know love transcends reciprocation
Is kind and patient (yeah)
I know that it's gone stand the test of time (it do)
Since I got it to give, I give you the best of mine (for sure)
I know that I forget, see pain it make you blind
But heartbreak always seems to remind (yeah)
So what is love?

Praying for your safety
Praying you straight whenever in company of niggas that ain't me
Praying you find what you seeking
All that I couldn't provide I know you gone reach it
Ain't preaching
Just speaking straight from the heart
Love is knowing that you need a little time apart
And actually listening to that voice inside you it's so divine
And leaning into the pain when it's easier to hide and we gone ride
I know enough to know where loyalties lie
Though it's love with all the homies yo I'm knowing which side
People gone choose, and it's cool fasho they gone ride for you
And that's what you deserve, we all know you tried and true
It's selfish of me to want you to come back
Knowing somewhere in your soul, you felt this ain't where it's at
Well
I just pray you keep that spirit in tact
And none of this is easy to say but I'm knowing it's facts

What is love? Love is patient and love is kind
What is love? Love is when you crossing my mind
What is love? Only tears of joy why I cry
You might come back but if you don't, still thanking God for your time
What is love? Really letting go and let God
What is love? Doing so even when it's hard
What is love? Well love is not force or control
It's letting it be and letting it flow that's what I know
