Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You know the love still remains
You say you won’t take off
My chain
After everything
You know the love still remains
You say you won’t take off
My chain
You still rock it
You still rock it
Yeah
Got you in my pocket
In my pocket
In my pocket
Yeah
You say thank you for calling
So you know I’ll keep calling
You say don’t talk about us
What’s the problem
Is you moving on
Moving on, ohhh
If it’s so then say it
But you know I can’t take it
No, I won’t entertain it
You said maybe we could make it
You did yeah you said it
You did yeah you said it
What is you on
Is you on
Tell me just like that
I need to know
I need to know
No, don’t you act like that
No, don’t you act like you can’t
Tell me the truth
Cause I was there when it only was
Just me and you
These niggas waiting on the sideline
They’ll wait a lifetime
But meanwhile I got my eyesight
On just that one guy
But he don’t even care
No, no
This love game isn’t fair, no
How you gone say let’s be friends
We was that from the beginning
I‘m not even gone pretend
I’m tryna have us some kids yeah
At one point you was with it
Now you gone say forget it
How you gone break my heart like that
How you gone break my heart like that
Want you to take it all right back
How you gone break my heart like that
Want you to take it all right
I was down bad and then
You came healer
