Do You Love Me?

Yeah (do you?)
Ask yourself (do you really love?)
(Do you?) Ask your self
(Do you really love?)

Questions, I got so many questions (uh-huh)
That shouldn't be in my possession
That shouldn't have my mind stressing
You see the line between love and hate
Often times, it's razor-thin, and the imagery, it can get blurred
Between your enemies and your friends (uh-huh)
I'm as solid as they come
An exclusive cloth that I'm cut from

Loyalty, I'm a one of one
All the love I show always genuine
But the love received isn't always real
Smoke clouds in my visions field
Seems that I always got your back when mine is always revealed
So-called friends or even family, often time I'm the hand that feeds
Guess the love comes at a cost, and that cost, there is extreme
This labor of love (labor of love), hard work, but it bears no fruit

You profess to have all the love, but it bears no truth (hard)
Hard for me to stay even keeled, hard for me to keep the waters still (hard)
Hard for me to extend my grace
I see the lies that hide behind that smiling face
I reflect, then I ask myself, is this the game that I want to play?
Do I stay posted on the block or do I pivot and just fade away?

The way you act it make me wonder, do you love me?
If I didn't have a bag, I wonder, would you love me?
Watch my back, protect my neck as if you love me
Or plot and scheme, dethrone the King like you don't know me
Silently, hating me because you're envious
Earn my wrath or serve my tax before I execute
All I really want to know and need some answers to (really wanna know is)
Is do you really love me?

Questions, I got so many questions (uh-huh)
That I pose to the mirror (yeah, yeah) in hopes that I can see clearer
I can see the game from a mile away, black, white, even shades of gray
Vixen's eye, lioness in wait, always on the prowl looking for her take
They look up in the sky (look) and see that my star is blazin'
Charlie Hooves is the superman, and they're vying for me to save him
Such is life for the King of kings, all this ice in the diamond rings
All the bags and the finer things, and she just wants to be Queen

Got many trophies inside my case (uh-huh), but now my mind's in a different space
Well beyond all this give and take, if the love is real, we can ice the cake
But if the romance is tied to finance, then this union won't stand a chance
You can leave with what you came with, I won't hesitate to stop your advance
Silly rabbit tricks are made for kids, that's not the life that I choose to live
But if you're here to make my half whole, best believe I got the world to give
Do you stand with me through the test of time, good, bad, sickness, and health
Take a step back, look into the mirror and ask yourself (just ask yourself)

The way you act, it make me wonder, do you love me?
If I didn't have a bag, I wonder, would you love me?
Watch my back, protect my neck as if you love me
Or plot and scheme, dethrone the King like you don't know me
Silently, hating me because you're envious
Earn my wrath or serve my tax before I execute
All I really want to know and need some answers to (really wanna know is)
Is do you really love me (yeah, yeah)
