People fallin' in and out of love
That would be the only time that I won't hit the ground running
Momma told me things happen
But how do we make sure that they don't happen to us
Happen to us
How do we make sure that they don't happen to us
Cuz we're in love
But is love not enough these days
Growin' up my best friend called it his dads's crib I ain't get it
I just thought that he was possessive or never mentioned his mom
Because he liked his dad more
And moms was somewhere being a bad sport
Somewhere trippin' without a passport but they took turns packin' the Jansport
But aside from not being together
He had the best mother and father he could've ever asked for
Fast forward take a walk in his sandals
Imagine having a relationship without an example
You got a problem but you've never seen it properly handled
You on ya phone social media watching immediate blocking
Feeding ya relationship and being fed up
Know the difference, one is demonstrating commitment
And the other one is callin' it quits when somebody isn't
Is it too much or something missing
All I know is I'm seeing too many
People fallin' in and out of love
That would be the only time that I won't hit the ground running
Momma told me things happen
But how do we make sure that they don't happen to us
Happen to us
How do we make sure that they don't happen to us
Cuz we're in love
But is love not enough these days
Grown and out the house when my parents split up
What went down to make the marriage go up in flames
Ideal image of love wasn't the same
Echoes of arguments I heard over the phone were stuck in my brain
Nothin' insane but it affected me still
Felt the tension in the room when we chilled
I'm thinkin' bout how all the holidays would go down
His and hers is done for, all the possessive pronouns
Prayin' I was never in the middle of a showdown
Would I have to make a choice and pick a side to hold down
How's my lil sister holding up
Would she wanna talk it with me, are we close enough
Wifey brought me back to God He cleared everything up for me
Told me not worry as long as you stay in touch with me
One of many ways she illustrated her love for me
Even when I think that she's done and she's had enough of me
Luckily we'd never be like all of these
People fallin' in and out of love
That would be the only time that I won't hit the ground running
Momma told me things happen
But how do we make sure that they don't happen to us
Happen to us
How do we make sure that they don't happen to us
Cuz we're in love
But is love not enough these days
