(Cat this go crazy)
Had it for you, had it for you
I remember times that I was broke, I never had it for you
Down on my a**, I got the bag, I turned a savage for you
Cut off my hoes, all this for you, got rid the baggage for you
I took the fall, I did the dirt, I took the damage for you
You know I did this for us (And I)
Did it for love (And I)
(Don't want no lovin' now)
I had you feel some typa way, when we be f****** uh
You know without me you ain't s***, girl you ain't nothin' uh
No you ain't s*** without me
Can't have no b**** around me
You know, all the s*** we did can't do that s*** without me
I use to pick you up late night, girl, and I would f*** you good
You said you cuttin' off yo man's, I always thought you would
But I never thought you could
He never do no good
You never wanted me, you say I'm Hollywood
You think I'm only tryna f***, girl I'm misunderstood
I opened up my heart for you, I thought you understood
But you'n never get it
I had my heart broke before i don't even sweat it
And all that shit I did for you I don't even regret it
And you know all the s*** I said to you I meant it
I don't regret it (Yea, Go)
I remember times that I was broke, I never had it for you
Down on my a**, I got the bag, I turned a savage for you
Cut off my hoes, all this for you, got rid the baggage for you
I took the fall, I did the dirt, I took the damage for you
You know I did this for us (And I)
Did this for trust (And I)
Did it for love (And I)
(Don't want no lovin' now)
I had you feel some typa way, when we be f****** uh
You know without me you ain't s***, girl you ain't nothin' uh
I risked it all this s*** for us
I was hoping for ya trust
I know it's, hard to see the good I wrote this song for you in blood
I know I, left without a word I took my heart and had to run
But in the end and after all just know I did this s*** for love
You got me wishing on a star, and now my roof is full of stars
Was kinda hoping you'd be happy just to, see me moving on
I let so many do me wrong and take advantage of my heart
I'm tryna show you all along that right here's where yo a** belong
And just to show you that I care, I woulda
Went half on a baby wit you
Say you drink to hide the pain
Well f*** it I'll get faded wit you
You think that my songs are meant to
Hurt you I could never diss you
Never felt this type of way but, girl I feel I made it wit you
I remember times that I was broke, I never had it for you
Down on my a**, I got the bag, I turned a savage for you
Cut off my hoes, all this for you, got rid the baggage for you
I took the fall, I did the dirt, I took the damage for you
You know I did this for us (And I)
Did this for trust (And I)
Did it for love (And I)
(Don't want no lovin' now)
I had you feel some typa way, when we be f****** uh
You know without me you ain't s***, girl you ain't nothin' uh
The lyrics of “The Look of Love” by P. Diddy featuring Fergie talks about the sacrifices and efforts they have made in a relationship. The song portrays that the singer has been through a lot, including times when he was broke, when he had to cut off his hoes, did the dirt, took the damage, and took the fall, all for the sake of their relationship. Despite all of these struggles, the singer did all of it for love, trust, and their relationship. The lyrics also insinuate that the other person is nothing without him, and he wishes for them to see that he did everything out of love.
The lyrics mix soft and hard phrases to create dynamic and contrasting meanings. The song talks about the sacrifices, yet it also speaks of desire and love in a slightly aggressive tone. Moreover, the chorus is repetitive and has a memorable tune, which makes it catchy and easy to sing along with.
