Fuck Love
Banks Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Kiss me on the go, if you want it
Don't say I'm your only, ayy
Don't say I'm the only one you're waitin' on
I don't need your coat 'cause I'll throw it away
Don't give me a rose, I don't want it
Don't say I'm your only, ayy
Don't say I'm the only one you're waitin' on, ayy-ayy
Sneak up on me out of lust
Lucky something's good enough
Tell me one thing I don't know
If this is what you got
This ain't what I want
Pull it up and park it slowly
I'ma get it the way I like it on me
I can do it better
See me better lonely, I-I I asked ya, uh
I don't know shit about love
I keep on fucking it up, yeah
Anything about love
Don't want to think about it
I'd rather drink about it
This is what I think about love
I could chuck it and let the liquor pick it up, ayy
Anything about love
Don't wanna think about it
Don't know a thing about it
You gave me a goal and I shot it
I don't need a throne, 'cause I got it
Say you wanna hold me
I don't need a lean, I got a back bone
I don't need a catch, 'cause I throw it away
Don't give me your heart, I don't want it
Don't say I'm your only, ayy
Don't say I'm the only one you're waiting on, ayy-ayy
Sick of salt, I'm sugared up
Not your fault I'm sweet enough
I don't want that cookie cut
'Cause you owe me a cut from the way I build you up
Pull it up and park it slowly
I'ma get it the way I like it on me
I can do it better
See me better lonely, uh-uh
I don't know shit about love
I keep on fucking it up, yeah
Anything about love
Don't wanna think about it
I'd rather drink about it
This is what I think about love
I could chuck in and let the liquor pick it up, ayy
Anything about love
Don't wanna think about it
Don't know a thing about it

In the first verse, the lyrics express a sense of independence and detachment from romantic expectations and traditional symbols of love. The singer asserts that they don't need someone to take care of them or shower them with gifts like a coat or a rose. They reject the idea of being someone's only option and refuse to be defined by waiting for someone else.
The second verse delves deeper into the singer's discontentment with love. They describe being approached by someone driven by lust, but they find it unfulfilling. The lyrics suggest that the singer is looking for something more substantial and genuine, rather than just physical desires. They express a desire to be seen and understood, but the person they are addressing fails to meet those expectations.
The chorus reflects the singer's ongoing struggle with love. They admit to not knowing much about love and continuously messing it up. They convey a sense of avoidance and escapism, preferring to turn to drinking as a means of distraction. The lyrics illustrate a lack of interest or desire to contemplate love, expressing a preference to keep it at a distance.
In the final verse, the singer asserts their self-sufficiency and independence once again. They explain that they don't need someone to give them a goal or a throne because they have already achieved that for themselves. The lyrics reject the idea of being held or dependent on someone, emphasizing their own strength and resilience. They also allude to a feeling of being owed something in return for the efforts they have put into building someone up.
Overall, the lyrics of "Fuck Love" by BANKS convey a strong sense of self-empowerment, disillusionment with traditional notions of love, and a desire to maintain independence. The song expresses a resistance to being confined by societal expectations and a hesitation to fully engage with the complexities of love.

'Cause you owe me a cut from the way I build you up
You are indebted to me for the way I elevated you
