Who Do You Love
Winans Phase 2 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Love rules everything around me
The dream and the money set my mind back to contracts
Women with much back trying to trap the sac
But no way, cutie; you just another booby
God's much better than mad cheddar in Jamaica
Give you whatever and more paper than you could ever scrapa
But it ain't enough when you roll with scrubs
Yo, black, what you lack is divine love

Who do you love? (What do I have to do?)
Are you for sure? (I'm the reason the sky is blue)
Who do you love? (What do I have to give?)
Are you for sure? (I'm the source that you might live)
Who do you love? (What do I have to say?)
Are you for sure? (I'm the sun that lights the day)
Who do you love? (Is it me?)
Is it me or nobody?

You caught my attention, but why?
Rescued my destruction in time
Requested my submission to Christ
But I gave you rebellion's side

Who do you love? (What do I have to do?)
Are you for sure? (I'm the reason the sky is blue)
Who do you love? (What do I have to give?)
Are you for sure? (I'm the source that you might live)
Who do you love? (What do I have to say?)
Are you for sure? (I'm the sun that lights the day)
Who do you love? (Is it me?)
Is it me or nobody?

My pride won't ever let me cry
But manhood doesn't get me by
Waging races against time
In my mind

Who do you love? (What do I have to do?)
Are you for sure? (I'm the reason the sky is blue)
Who do you love? (What do I have to give?)
Are you for sure? (I'm the source that you might live)
Who do you love? (What do I have to say?)
Are you for sure? (I'm the sun that lights the day)
Who do you love? (Is it me?)
Is it me or nobody?

I'm runnin', mad peeps got my rays cunnin'
Ain't it stunnin'? Kids out getting blunted
Now wait a minute, don't you try to blame that on the youth
When you go let them believe whatever their ears receive
Now school 'em; what they should be learnin' is bites
And hurts of puttin' Christ first instead of fights that hurt
Come on, team, your cream is secondary
Your soul is legendary; put it back in your dictionary

Who do you love? (What do I have to do?)
Are you for sure? (I'm the reason the sky is blue)
Who do you love? (What do I have to give?)
Are you for sure? (I'm the source that you might live)
Who do you love? (What do I have to say?)
Are you for sure? (I'm the sun that lights the day)




Who do you love? (Is it me?)
Is it me or nobody?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Winans Phase 2's song Who Do You Love reflect on the importance of love, both divine and human, and the struggles that come with it in a materialistic world. The opening lines "Love rules everything around me" convey the message that true love should be prioritized over money and material possessions. The following lines "The dream and the money set my mind back to contracts, Women with much back trying to trap the sac" talk about the temptations that come with wealth, such as women who try to take advantage of rich men. However, the lyrics emphasize that these material things are not enough and what is truly needed is divine love.


The chorus of the song repeatedly asks "Who do you love?" and the response is "I'm the reason the sky is blue", "I'm the source that you might live", "I'm the sun that lights the day". These are all references to God's importance and the role he plays in our lives. The verses also touch on the struggles of balancing pride and manhood with the need for love and spirituality. The line "My pride won't ever let me cry, But manhood doesn't get me by" highlights this struggle.


The bridge of the song talks about the negative influences on the youth and the responsibility of adults to guide them towards a spiritual path. The lyrics mention the need to put Christ first instead of getting into fights and hurting others. The song ends with the repeated question "Who do you love?" emphasizing the need for introspection and reflection on what truly matters in life.

Welcome To Tiffiney's

I grew up on their Father's music! Love the Winans! The Winans was actually my favorite group for many years until I switched over to Commissioned! LOL I know Fred Hammond from Commissioned played base guitar for the Winans ( the fathers). These boys are great. I had the awesome pleasure of seeing them in concert when this album came out.

Roe Cal
