Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Gimme your forever
Or at least just for a while give me never ending
Or at least give me a mile, give me happiness
Or at least give me a smile, give me forever for a while
Give me forever for a while
Quit acting like a baby
Or at least less like a child
Give me serenity
Or at least just peace of mind
Give me closure
Or at least a phone call, give me forever for a while
Give me forever for a while
Swear to God I'm a sinner in a church burning up for you
Swear to God she's a blessing and a curse
Shoulda learned from you
Swear to God I'm a sinner in a church burning up in flames
Swear to God shoulda learned, should learned
To neve-neve-neve
Fuck with, fuck with, fuck with girls like you
Fuck with, fuck with, fuck with girls like you
Fuck with, fuck with, fuck with girls like you
Fuck with, fuck with, fuck with
Gimme your forever
Or at least just for a while give me never ending
Or at least give me a mile, give me happiness
Or at least give me a smile, give me forever for a while
Give me forever for a while
Quit acting like a baby
Or at least less like a child
Give me serenity
Or at least just peace of mind
Give me closure
Or at least a phone call, give me forever for a while
Give me forever for a while
Swear to God I'm a sinner in a church burning up for you
Swear to God she's a blessing and a curse
Shoulda learned from you
Swear to God I'm a sinner in a church burning up in flames
Swear to God shoulda learned, should learned
To neve-neve-neve
Fuck with, fuck with, fuck with girls like you
Fuck with, fuck with, fuck with girls like you




Fuck with, fuck with, fuck with girls like you
Fuck with, fuck with, fuck with girls like, girls like

Overall Meaning

"Girls Like U" by Blackbear is a song that addresses the challenges of finding love and maintaining a healthy relationship in a complex world of love, sex, and emotions. The song speaks of the singer's desire to find true love and be with someone who can offer him a forever kind of love or at least give him happiness for a little while. He urges his partner to give him peace of mind, closure, and at least a phone call. He also highlights the complexities of relationships by acknowledging that his partner can be both a blessing and a curse, and he should have learned from his past experiences with similar partners.


The chorus repeats the lines, "Swear to God I'm a sinner in a church burning up for you, shoulda learned from you, to never, ever, ever, fuck with girls like you." Here, Blackbear suggests that despite the difficulties that come with relationships, he is willing to give it his all and risk getting hurt. However, he urges his partner not to take advantage of him and mess with his emotions. The chorus implies that his partner has qualities that have hurt him before and warns her to be careful about playing with his emotions.
