U Know it Ain't Love
R.J. & Pitbull Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Love to hate me
I love that you hate me greatly
I appreciate your love

If you want me now
Celebrate the love that we have inside
Like a full moon rise
Right here into my arms
Every day I feel I can live or die
If you realize

When you walk right out my life
I don't wanna lose the fight
But I can't seem to forget you
Even though we're through

You know it ain't love, oh oh oh
Why am I lost without your touch
You know it ain't love, oh oh oh
Cause this feeling is too much
You know it ain't love

Uh, yeah
Mami raps right
So I pulled out my dick and told her to
Speak into the mic
You love me, you hate me
To those that love to hate me
I love that you hate me greatly
I appreciate your love
You can throw me in a bendable chair

You know it ain't love
You know it ain't love
Cause when you open up inside
I can't keep you from my eyes
You know it ain't love

I've been politically incorrect since the day I was born
That's why 'til the day that I die it's on...
I'm a fight for the cause
When the pit bites, you know what happens to the jaw
Fuck around and it might be your
Big l, big pun, big

Why are you so bad
This means a heart that burns the fire
Can make us higher
You just make me feel sad
This was the best thing I could ever have
That's the word you said
I was wrong I did not tell you
When I needed you
Set me free, why me
But I can't seem to stop dreaming with all these demons

You know it ain't love, oh oh oh
Why am I lost without your touch
You know it ain't love, oh oh oh
Cause this feeling is too much
You know it ain't... know it ain't...
You know it ain't love

Chances are one in a million
I hear you died in a plane crash
So I guess that makes us one in a million
May you rest in peace
But that's your job
Destiny is somethin' that you just can't choose
If you're destined to die, it's just your time, live with me
You don't think that

You know it ain't love
No baby
You know it ain't love
Cause when you open up inside
I can't keep you from my eyes
You know it ain't love, yeah
You know it ain't love
Said, uou know it ain't love baby




Don't tell me, when you know, when you know
You know it ain't love

Overall Meaning

The song "U Know It Ain't Love" by R.J. and Pitbull is a song about a complicated relationship. The lyrics express conflicting emotions of love and hate. The chorus talks about how the singer knows that the relationship is not based on love because they cannot function without the other person, despite the negative aspects of the relationship. The verses describe the ups and downs of the relationship, with the singer unable to forget the other person, even though they have broken up. The rap interlude by Pitbull adds a different dimension, with the artist bragging about his skills and alluding to the idea that he is not meant for a monogamous relationship.

However, the chorus talks about how the singer wants to move on from this type of relationship and find something that is true love.


Overall, the lyrics of "U Know It Ain't Love" play with the idea of what love really means and whether the singer is willing to sacrifice their emotional well-being for the sake of holding on to a relationship that they know is not good for them.
