U Know it Ain't Love
R.J Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
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 d*ck 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’ma fight for the cause
When the pit bites, you know what happens to the jaw
F*ck 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 cheat
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, you know it ain’t love baby
Don’t tell me, when you know, when you know
You know it ain’t love
The lyrics to R.J. feat. Pitbull's song U Know Ain't Love talk about the complicated and tumultuous nature of a relationship that has ended but still lingers. The singer of the song is torn between love and hate, feeling strongly attracted to their former partner but also acknowledging that what they had wasn't love. The song talks about the pain and confusion that comes from trying to move on, but also the possibility of finding happiness if they are open to it.
The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a relationship that was intense and passionate but ultimately unsustainable. The lines "Love to hate me, I love that you hate me greatly, I appreciate your love" speak to the paradoxical nature of the couple's dynamic - they were drawn to each other but also pushed each other away. The chorus, which repeats "You know it ain't love" emphasizes the singer's realization that what they had wasn't healthy or sustainable.
The verses contain some interesting imagery, like the lines "You can throw me in a bendable chair" which suggest that the singer is willing to endure anything for love, even if it hurts them. Meanwhile, Pitbull's verse adds some sexual innuendo to the mix, playing with the idea of love and hate being two sides of the same coin.
Overall, U Know Ain't Love is a complex and emotionally charged song that captures the confusing and painful aftermath of a tumultuous relationship.
