What Is Love
I used to wish that love was like the money that I count
I could build you up forever while I always hold you down
But you can't buy love, you gotta find it for yourself
And hope you find the one to put your pride up on the shelf
Find the one that makes you wanna throw it all away
Find the one that you would be there for everyday
The best that you can do is hope
Still don't know how I can cope
Codeine running down my throat
I guess I may never know
Now I'm walking on stars, they said I'd stay in the dark
And you know I'd stay forever you're a perfect work of art
But love is always such a complicated story
But I guess if it wasn't then it would always be boring
Or maybe it's just me
If you get my attention you're the only one I see
Like the way she did to me
Like the way I sip my lean
Like the way that I can't trust because of everything I've seen
I live in the inbetweens
Inbetween salvation and the pain that I caused
All the things I did to cope and all the problems involved
Love is such a complicated story
Can we start it from the top and build a kingdom with our glory
Two pints girl yeah I'm faded
Said love was overrated
I met the one and now I'm trapped but I'm so proud to say it
Took my heart and I got hurt I got sick and you're the cure
We pop out different, matching pants and matching furs
If you got a problem with me and my bitch
We could pop out and go play with them sticks
They got me on watch, imma send me a driller
And all I'm gon pay is a zip
I might be sad but I'm carrying weight
I got too much on my plate
I don't give a fuck if I'm not getting paid
I took those chances way back in the day
Hit a cashapp twice
You wasn't there on the dirtiest nights
You wasn't there when the feds knocked down them doors
You move and you seein them lights
I moved on and I found a gem
Never thought I'd find love again
But I found it better than ever
I'll fight like hell so this won't end
Girl it's you or I'll be dead
Went through pain I had to mend
Now the story's almost told
Alexis will you be the end
I could build you up forever while I always hold you down
But you can't buy love, you gotta find it for yourself
And hope you find the one to put your pride up on the shelf
Find the one that makes you wanna throw it all away
Find the one that you would be there for everyday
The best that you can do is hope
Still don't know how I can cope
Codeine running down my throat
I guess I may never know
Now I'm walking on stars, they said I'd stay in the dark
And you know I'd stay forever you're a perfect work of art
But love is always such a complicated story
But I guess if it wasn't then it would always be boring
Or maybe it's just me
If you get my attention you're the only one I see
Like the way she did to me
Like the way I sip my lean
Like the way that I can't trust because of everything I've seen
I live in the inbetweens
Inbetween salvation and the pain that I caused
All the things I did to cope and all the problems involved

Now the story's almost told
Alexis will you be the end
