What Is Love

I used to wish that love was like the money that I count I could build you up forever while I always hold you down But you can't buy love, you gotta find it for yourself And hope you find the one to put your pride up on the shelf Find the one that makes you wanna throw it all away Find the one that you would be there for everyday The best that you can do is hope Still don't know how I can cope Codeine running down my throat I guess I may never know Now I'm walking on stars, they said I'd stay in the dark And you know I'd stay forever you're a perfect work of art But love is always such a complicated story But I guess if it wasn't then it would always be boring Or maybe it's just me If you get my attention you're the only one I see Like the way she did to me Like the way I sip my lean Like the way that I can't trust because of everything I've seen I live in the inbetweens Inbetween salvation and the pain that I caused All the things I did to cope and all the problems involved Love is such a complicated story Can we start it from the top and build a kingdom with our glory Two pints girl yeah I'm faded Said love was overrated I met the one and now I'm trapped but I'm so proud to say it Took my heart and I got hurt I got sick and you're the cure We pop out different, matching pants and matching furs If you got a problem with me and my bitch We could pop out and go play with them sticks They got me on watch, imma send me a driller And all I'm gon pay is a zip I might be sad but I'm carrying weight I got too much on my plate I don't give a fuck if I'm not getting paid I took those chances way back in the day Hit a cashapp twice You wasn't there on the dirtiest nights You wasn't there when the feds knocked down them doors You move and you seein them lights I moved on and I found a gem Never thought I'd find love again But I found it better than ever I'll fight like hell so this won't end Girl it's you or I'll be dead Went through pain I had to mend Now the story's almost told Alexis will you be the end
