Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We don't got nothing
If we don't got lovin
That's how its supposed to be
Cuz I want you close to me
Aha, im be better off if youre close to me
Girl and III
You can be my baby
Even when its crazy
I am never gonna leave
Cuz I want you close to me
Aha, im be better off if youre close to me
Girl and III

Yo, Whyd you have me build that brideg to your heart
If youre gonna burn it up
It only work to make the mistakes when you goin learn from em
I tried to show you that some changes could be permanent
And told you that I loved you from jump
But now them hurdles is impossible to walk around
And you've been searching through my phone like it's a lost and found
You seeing women that I know then wanna talk about it
Every five minutes you been arguing and walking out
You call my mama house and even hit my manager
Its getting hard to handle you when everything is scandal and
You Looking in the mattress for evidence of spending any second with another
Accusing me so much, you make me wish I would've done it
And after what my mother did to keep you in the country
And to help you get your papers and your visa from the government
You've been on some other s---.
I know I should be done wit it
But I could never leave you cuz I love you
I put up with it, boo

We don't got nothing
If we don't got lovin
That's how its supposed to be
Cuz I want you close to me
Aha, im be better off if youre close to me
Girl and III
You can be my baby
Even when its crazy
I am never gonna leave
Cuz I want you close to me
Aha, im be better off if youre close to me
Girl and III

Now you don't need no gentleman who has to pull your chair out

You want a man thatll scratch and pull your hair out
And all my exes, they aint never been like you
Baby, you are the exception to the rule
And, yeah, we kept it cool through the deepest mess
We could pretend
But now you leavin and your weepin like youre grievin to death
And youre the only one I ever shared achievements with
You aint the woman of my dreams and I aint sleepin again
I swear, I need you here and I hope that you see it clear
Got a shallow understanding of most of my deepest fears
I never thought that you the one who would be scrambling
Cuz, running from family and running my family
But uh, nothing I had in life been half is right
And now you showed your true colors
I can see it plain as black and white
No shaded grey to make mistakes, I made a sacrifice
Hungry for your love, now quench my appetite
So come on

We don't got nothing
If we don't got lovin
That's how its supposed to be
Cuz I want you close to me
Aha, im be better off if youre close to me
Girl and III
You can be my baby
Even when its crazy
I am never gonna leave
Cuz I want you close to me
Aha, im be better off if youre close to me
Girl and III
We don't got nothing
If we don't got lovin
That's how its supposed to be
Cuz I want you close to me
Aha, im be better off if youre close to me
Girl and III
You can be my baby
Even when its crazy
I am never gonna leave
Cuz I want you close to me




Aha, im be better off if youre close to me
Girl and III
