Alright, watch this though
I hurt u so u hurt me, u cheat so I go cheat
Toxic love got it bad but we both don't wanna leave
Fighting fire with fire can't put each other out
Hard to build structure burning each other down
I hurt u so u hurt me, u cheat so I go cheat
Toxic love got it bad but we both don't wanna leave
Hard to build structure burning each other down
Why u texting other women why u fucking other niggas
Why u going thru my phone u need to mind yo fucking business
Going at each other throat if she strangle then I choke
Hate it when she push my buttons not the one u should provoke
Who them niggas on ya page? Why u entertaining all of that
Hate it when u do that why the fuck u be responding back
Rarely keeping peace it's like we dancing with the flames
Steady hurting one another like we enjoying the pain
Crazy as it sounds we love each other but we toxic
Do me wrong I do u wrong my potna say we need to stop it
Caught u at the club with a nigga and I lost it
Hate u bitch go fuck that nigga but that was my liquor talking
U did it now I'm tripping fuck I wish it could be different
But I cannot live without u took u back u are forgiven
Are u really? Here we go I use my thumb to flick the lighter
When I'm heated I can't help it fighting fire with my fire
I hurt u so u hurt me, u cheat so I go cheat
Toxic love got it bad but we both don't wanna leave
Fighting fire with fire can't put each other out
Hard to build structure burning each other down
I hurt u so u hurt me, u cheat so I go cheat
Toxic love got it bad but we both don't wanna leave
Fighting fire with fire can't put each other out
Hard to build structure burning each other down
She caught me texting another woman that I was sexing
Now shit more hectic, she throwing dishes at me got cut she getting reckless
Now she contemplating bout leaving
I only did it cause u did it I just had to get even
Stead of having a discussion we argue and now she cussing
She said that I'm good for nothing she hate that she fucking love me
Toxic love u see the acid, we love each other dearly
But we steady causing damage, easy fix lets use a bandage
I hurt u so u hurt me, u cheat so I go cheat
Toxic love got it bad but we both don't wanna leave
Fighting fire with fire can't put each other out
Hard to build structure burning each other down
I hurt u so u hurt me, u cheat so I go cheat
Toxic love got it bad but we both don't wanna leave
Fighting fire with fire can't put each other out
Hard to build structure burning each other down
Are u done? I'm sorry
The song "Play With Fire" by F.U.K.T feat MC B-Live is a song about a toxic relationship that is characterized by cheating, fighting, and hurting each other. The lyrics reveal that both partners are guilty of infidelity, and instead of healing and reconciling, they choose to fight fire with fire, causing more harm to the relationship. The chorus "I hurt u so u hurt me, u cheat so I go cheat, Toxic love got it bad but we both don't wanna leave, Fighting fire with fire can't put each other out, Hard to build structure burning each other down" is an allusion to the destructive nature of their relationship, and how it is hard to build a healthy foundation when they are constantly hurting each other.
In the second verse, the male partner accuses the female partner of texting and entertaining other men while she accuses him of doing the same. The lyrics suggest a lack of trust between both of them. The relationship is characterized by arguing, fighting, and throwing dishes. Despite all the toxicity, they still love each other and find it hard to leave the relationship.
Overall, "Play With Fire" is a cautionary tale about the danger of toxic relationships where partners hurt each other, cheat, and cause more harm than good. The lyrics suggest that it is better to end such relationships than to keep fighting with each other.
