Lyrics

Swear it only takes one time to make your mind up
When you got a real one
You got a real love
You got it
Swear it only takes one time to fuck it all up
When you got a real one
You got a real love
You got a real love
Promises
You been breaking all of them yeah
Shoulda known you had issues but just
like a church-goer my faith was louder
Fed your ego I made it prouder
And your demons I laid them down right next to me
(Next to me)
Who is this monster that I have created
and where is the one I love?
Why did you love me exactly the way that I needed then call it off?
Where do you think you are going when you promised me you would never leave?
What do I say to my mama?
What you gon' tell your family?
Swear it only takes one time to make your mind up
When you got a real one
You got a real love
You got it
Swear it only takes one time to fuck it all up
When you got a real one
You got a real love
You got a real love
One thing I won't beg for is your commitment
You've got to be sure if you say you're in it
There'll be no leaving
I didn't share all my secrets for nothing with you
Laying it all out for you.
So tell me what you think a real love is
Are you tryna have a wife and kids?
Tell me what you telling all of your friends
Do they see you moving on from your ex?
Everyday you're like a different person
I'm feeling like it just ain't worth it anymore
Swear it only takes one time to make your mind up
When you got a real one
You got a real love
You got it
Swear it only takes one time to fuck it all up
When you got a real one
You got a real love
You got a real love
Swear it only takes one time to make your mind up
When you got a real one
You got a real love
You got it
Swear it only takes one time to fuck it all up
When you got a real one
You got a real love
You got a real love
