What Love Is
I lied when I said it was infatuation
I knew you was a fragment of my imagination
Was it love?
Was it lust?
You never had no patience
Gave you the most praise
I feel humiliated, never appreciated
Always opinionated, never communication
Different sides of the fence, call it segregation
When it came to me and you, I felt so separated
All the time I put in, All the love that I give
I can’t see myself falling ever again
I took it all to the chin
Can’t let my heart break again
Its so hard to pretend
So let me vent
I admit, you was selfish
And the reason I won’t try love again
Tell me what love is?
What you gave wasn’t love and that’s unfortunate
At least you got your friends
I’m stuck picking up the pieces of my heart again
The fact remains I love you
Put no one else above you
Put my music below you
I chose you
Took the time to get to know you
It’s sad I didn’t really know you
I changed my life, my wife, my rib
Why did you do me like this?
Hard to pick up the pieces when I’m feeling like this
So I drink to forget, too young for marriage and kids
But you made me think about it every time that we kissed
I admit, I was selfish
Tell me what love is
What I gave wasn’t love and I was hell bent
I couldn’t help it, Tried to communicate
But it wasn’t helping
Message finally received
No more yelling
I just want to apologize, we did it to ourselves
I think our love is history, time to tear down this shelf
I put my blood, sweat, & tears
This shit bad for my health
All these feelings I never tell
Sometimes I wish I never fell
I knew you was a fragment of my imagination
Was it love?
Was it lust?
You never had no patience
Gave you the most praise
I feel humiliated, never appreciated
Always opinionated, never communication
Different sides of the fence, call it segregation
When it came to me and you, I felt so separated
All the time I put in, All the love that I give
I can’t see myself falling ever again
I took it all to the chin
Can’t let my heart break again
Its so hard to pretend
So let me vent
I admit, you was selfish
And the reason I won’t try love again
Tell me what love is?
What you gave wasn’t love and that’s unfortunate
At least you got your friends
I’m stuck picking up the pieces of my heart again
The fact remains I love you
Put no one else above you
Put my music below you

Took the time to get to know you
It’s sad I didn’t really know you
I changed my life, my wife, my rib
