Love-Song
D.D. Jackson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I pray to God but I still see demons
It's not a facade
I can't help it how I'm feeling
Right by my side is where I need you now
I know I lied but girl I need you now
You say that I'm worth it but I ain't that perfect
Feel like shit ain't been working but maybe I deserve it
I be going through pain
Shit I'm never okay
But you'll never know the truth if I don't communicate
I get high tryna get by
Nicotine gone be the only reason I die
I get high all the time
I got plenty issues inside
I'll probably never be fine
I can't seem to put my pride aside
I always thought money would be the key to all my issues
All these hoes and fancy clothes would just make me forget you
I got you rose after rose to show you that I miss you
I really don't wanna lose what we got cause'
No matter where I go and no matter who I see
I'll always want you and you'll always want me
You say I'm selfish
But I can't help but notice everything was cool when we were down and broken
I pray to God but I still see demons
It's not a facade
I can't help it how I'm feeling
Right by my side is where I need you now
I know I lied but girl I need you now
You say that I'm worth it but I ain't that perfect
Feel like shit ain't been working but maybe I deserve it
I be going through pain
Shit I'm never okay
But you'll never know the truth if I don't communicate
I get high tryna get by
Nicotine gone be the only reason I die
I get high all the time
I got plenty issues inside




I'll probably never be fine
I can't seem to put my pride aside
