I found love with no catch

I go deep, you hold back

The good times, they go fast

We fall in, you go back

We slow down, we gon' crash

You sef know, it's so sad

We can't face the blow back

And each time we go back I feel scared it won't last (design)

I feel scared I no match for this task, I relapse

Is this jazz? (Design)

Did she cast some kind spell? Will it pass?

My boys laugh like C-Track, just sit back and relax

Guy, hmm (design)

In this moment I just can't refrain (can't refrain)

Control, alt, delete but nothing's changed (but nothing's changed)

Reflecting on past experiences, betrayal, and the lingering impact on the narrator.

I gave trust, you gave rage

I'm in bed for four days

The cold tears, my poor face

You didn't text, I'm upset

I forget, this old age

The old doors got new locks

In this icebox my heart based , uh

Just be careful how you moving careless (moving careless)

Texting me these nudies that's just rude endeavors (rude endeavors)

Everything was everything or at least so I thought (so I thought)

If you needed something, e go be me at sort (e go be me)

Addressing financial and emotional struggles within the relationship, feeling pressured and undervalued.

Everything you ask I work for it

Say if I love you I'd kill your you

Say if I love you I'd die for you

When I ain't got it, you cheat on me

When I ain't got it, you lied to me

Say many men go die for you

Now I just dey pray for you

Why you tryna shoot me down?

You put me, put me under pressure

Why you tryna kill my vibe?

You tryna push me to depression

Tryna make me jealous but I no dey for your level

Make you dey your side, make I dey my side, yeah

(Oh, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
