I refuse to tie down because that's what we're programmed to be

We're programmed to be catered to a ****

And I know I will change me for a ****

I've done it plenty of times

I'm starting to believe

Love is a sin

Oh, there's damage happening

I'm settling over and again

I'm starting to believe

Love is a sin

The way it breaks me down

Soon as you let him in

It's happening over and again

I swear I'm steady taking L's

About to raise hell

Feels like wasting time

You let your guard down

He start getting comfortable

Ooh, I hate getting emotional

Make me wanna call a trick up, we be on that simple

Oh, oh, oh

Let's make this shit transactional

Rather fucking trade it all

I tried, I tried, I tried

Oh, I tried

I'm starting to believe

Love is a sin

Oh, there's damage happening

I'm settling over and again

I'm starting to believe

Love is a sin

The way it breaks me down

Soon as you let him in

It's happening over and again

I done cut ties, took a loss for a ****

Even told my family lies

That still wasn't enough for a ****

To keep him by my side

I even took the blame

For hurting me that way

This shit just can't be saved

It's happening again

I hate getting emotional

Make me wanna call a trick up

We be on that simple

Let's make this shit transactional

Rather fucking trade it all

I tried, I tried, I tried

Oh, I tried

I'm starting to believe

Love is a sin

There's damage happening

Over and over again, I

These **** is a sin

'Cause I done tried

It breaks me down
