What's up? What you got? A gun?

No good for me but I have to know
Get what she want then she out the door, lost all control
She's been in my bed and now I'll never be the same (woo)

She got poison on my tongue
When her time is up, can't get enough
That girl just not a keeper
But I keep on tryna keep her
And she's way too hard to hold
Can't crack the code

The lyrics of Chris Brown's song "Forbidden" revolve around a toxic and addictive relationship. The singer acknowledges that the person they're involved with is trouble and not good for them, but they can't help but be drawn to them. The song describes the intense attraction and physical connection they share, despite knowing that it's destructive. The singer is aware that this person is not someone they can keep or have a healthy relationship with, but they keep trying to hold on, unable to resist their allure.
The lyrics express the conflicting emotions of the singer, who is torn between their desire for this person and the knowledge that being with them is harmful. The use of the word "forbidden" suggests that there may be external factors or societal expectations that make this relationship taboo, adding an additional layer of complexity to the situation.
Overall, the lyrics convey the addictive and destructive nature of a forbidden love, portraying a sense of longing and obsession that the singer struggles to let go of despite knowing the consequences.

Baby, you trippin'
My dear, you are acting strange
What's up? What you got? A gun?
What is wrong? Do you possess a weapon?
Oh
Expressing surprise or realization
I been shot
I have been wounded emotionally
She the one that scoped me out
She is the one who observed and targeted me
Time to stop
It is time to put an end to this
It was all part of the plot
It was all a calculated scheme
Now the sky is fallin' when I call your name (ooh)
Now everything feels chaotic when I mention your name
I gotta have you, let me get it
I desperately desire you, allow me to have you
She so bad, it's irrational
She is so attractive, it defies reason
No good for me but I have to know
She is not beneficial for me, but I cannot resist finding out
Get what she want then she out the door, lost all control
Once she obtains what she desires, she immediately leaves, causing me to lose all control
She's been in my bed and now I'll never be the same (woo)
She has spent intimate time with me and now I am forever changed
It's toxic when she's tastin' me
It is harmful when she indulges in me
She got poison on my tongue
She brings poison to my life
When her time is up, can't get enough
When her presence is supposed to end, I still crave more of her
That girl just not a keeper
She is not someone worth keeping in a long-term relationship
But I keep on tryna keep her
Yet, I continue to try and hold onto her
And she's way too hard to hold
She is extremely difficult to keep
Can't crack the code
I cannot decipher her true nature
But she keeps me wantin' more
However, she continually makes me desire her
She bad to the bone
She is inherently attractive and alluring
Your love is catastrophe
Your love is a disaster
I get the feelin' that you after me
I have the suspicion that you are pursuing me
It's like your soul is attached to me
It feels as though your soul is connected to mine
I hate it but I love it when that ass on me (ooh)
I dislike it, but I cannot resist enjoying when you seduce me
I wanna love you, babe
I desire to love you, my dear
I know it's forbidden, baby, oh Lord
I am aware that our love is prohibited, but it is difficult to resist, dear
I took a bite and now the walls are cavin' in (yeah)
I took a risk and now the consequences are closing in on me
You so bad, it's irrational
You are so attractive, it defies reason
But I love fuckin' you
But I enjoy having sexual relations with you
Your love is catastrophe (ooh)
Your love is a disaster
I get the feelin' that you after me
I have the suspicion that you are pursuing me
It's like your soul is attached to me (you know what you doin')
It feels as though your soul is connected to mine (you are aware of the power you hold over me)
I hate it but I love it when that ass on me, yeah (you know what you doin')
I dislike it, but I cannot resist enjoying when you seduce me (you know the effect you have on me)
That girl just not a keeper
She is not someone worth keeping in a long-term relationship
And when her time is up
And when the time for her to leave comes
Can't get enough
I still crave more of her
But I keep on tryna keep her
Yet, I continue to try and hold onto her
That girl just not a keeper
She is not someone worth keeping in a long-term relationship
But I keep on tryna keep her
Yet, I continue to try and hold onto her
