In this song, Cartier has a conversation with his partner, and how they feel they have too many problems, and that their relationship is coming to an end.
[Verse 1]
Uh, Rozay, I'm on my last cup
I'm on my last blunt, and on the last puff
I'm way past done, I can barely stand up
Like "Where my girl at?", I'm finna wake that ass up
I walk up in the room, her face mashed up
I look her in the eyes, like "What you mad for?"
She says, "We've got some problems that's way past us"
I'm like, "Can we wait?", "No"
She feels she's way past us
I see you lingering on bad stuff
That stuff's mad rough
Feeling some issues you shouldn't drag up
I'm thinking to myself, if it ain't bad luck
I wouldn't have luck, I shouldn't have trust
It always backfires
Thought you could hold me down like a pair of flat tires
But she was past tired
And I'm a bad liar, so she knows when I do it
She holds shit against me, and she knows when to use it
She knows that I love her, but I just didn't prove it
She couldn't approve of all of my improvements
But if you look hard enough you always find a nuisance
So I ask her, "What exactly am I doing?"
She said, "Exactly
Words that you threw at me
Times that you looked past me
How could you keep me happy?
How could we have a family when all you think is
Anthony, Anthony, Anthony?"
I said "Hold on, actually
You was always in my plans, I guess not enough
I guess the situation wasn't what I thought it was"
Now I'm past pissed, mad that she brought it up
Guess I didn't handle our situations, that caught me up
See, baby was thinking, "happily ever"
And I was thinking, "look after my cheddar"
Planning it clever never ever did I think it would get to this level
I guess I forgot which half of me's better
I'm mad that I ever met her
[Hook]
This is the death of my heart
But I don't need a knife or a weapon to spark
I thought I'd seen the light but I ain't have a shot in the dark
No, I ain't have a shot in the dark
So, This is the death of my heart
But I don't need a knife or a weapon to spark
I thought I'd seen the light but I ain't have a shot in the dark
No, This is the death of my heart
[Verse 2]
Uh, I've got a half, she's got the rest of my heart
And I don't need a knife or a weapon to spark
I thought I'd seen the light but I ain't have a shot in the dark
I should've never went, I should've never hopped in the car
Or put your seven digits up in my phone
I was tripping, I had seven bitches up in my phone
Ready to go, but you was on my dick so hard
That when I looked up at your ass, man, it'd get so hard
That I had to hit it once, and then I hit it twice
Messed around and hit it three times, you had a nigga stuck
I don't know if this was lust, I don't know if this was love
But this is exactly what happens when you grab me by the nuts
Can't believe I had them butterflies dancing in my guts
When I looked at you my life I would've gladly given up
Sadly, this is only the way that you had me
Now you gotta add me, to a long list of them
Would've been daddies
Could've been husbands
Should've been love or it would've been lusting
Got me feeling like we should've been nothing
Cause this feeling sitting in my stomach is disgusting
[Hook]
This is the death of my heart
But I don't need a knife or a weapon to spark
I thought I'd seen the light but I ain't have a shot in the dark
No, I ain't have a shot in the dark
So, This is the death of my heart
But I don't need a knife or a weapon to spark
I thought I'd seen the light but I ain't have a shot in the dark
No, This is the death of my heart
[Outro]
You see, somebody told me that, uh
Y'know, love is like water
You can either drown up in it, or lounge up in it
Most people never frown when surrounded in it
But they just feel crowded, get it?
See, I got crowded, and I tried to run
But God damn, that's like trying to hide the sun
You see, love is like water, you better find you some before your tongue gets dry and your mind gets numb
I'll give you a couple days, but the time will come
Where you will get so thirsty, you would sell your spine and lungs
And you know where these lines is from
There used to be two of me, now it's minus one
And slowly, I'm starting to feel blind and dumb
Looking at the world, you're seeing mirages
Hallucinating, parking in other peoples' garages
See, most people would think that not eating's retarded
But I'm starting to feel like not drinking's the hardest, and
Love is like water, the reasoning is flawless
You don't drink, you don't live
You don't live, you don't love
You don't love, you don't live
And all of the above
Misunderstood you might be called a meat scrub, but
Love is like water, and you're probably in the tub
A lot of people say that they're hardly into love
But I bet you, if their choice was to wet you
They would let you
Everybody needs somebody to protect you
Perfect you, pet you
The fuck up, shut you
Love is like water, I remember when I met you
First time we fucked, twisted you like a pretzel
You was red, too, and
I was like a tongue, so
How could love not be like water on my tongue
Seeping through my throat, providing me with vitamins, minerals, herbs, you know
Healthy dieting
The world is running out of love, you see the rioting
Only global warming could cause these local storms
And people will be poster storming through all of it, see
Love is like water, and I don't even like water
But without it, death is a promise
So why bother?
