[Chorus]
Swear it only takes one time to make your mind up (Mind)
When you got a real one (Real one)
You got a real love (Real love)
You got it (Yeah)
Swear it only takes one time to fuck it all up (All up)
When you got a real one (Real one)
You got a real love (Real love)
You got a real love (Real love)
[Verse 1]
Ooh, promises (Oh, yeah)
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
Right next to me, yeah (Yeah, yeah)
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? (Oh, woah)
What do I say to my mama?
What you gon' tell your family?
[Chorus]
Swear it only takes one time to make your mind up (Yeah)
When you got a real one (Real one)
You got a real love (Real love)
You got it (Yeah)
Swear it only takes one time to fuck it all up (All up)
When you got a real one (Real one)
You got a real love (Real love)
You got a real love (Real love)
[Verse 2]
One thing I won't beg for is your commitment (No, no)
You've got to be sure if you say you're in it
There'll be no leavin' (Nah)
I didn't share all my secrets for nothing with you
Layin' 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 tellin' all of your friends
Do they see you movin' on from your ex?
Everyday you're like a different person
I'm feelin' like it just ain't worth it anymore
But I swear, I swear
[Chorus]
Swear it only takes one time to make your mind up (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
When you got a real one (Real one)
You got a real love (Real love)
You got it (Yeah)
Swear it only takes one time to fuck it all up (All up)
When you got a real one (You)
You got a real love (Real love)
You got a real love (Real love)
Swear it only takes one time to make your mind up (Said it only takes one time)
When you got a real one (Real one)
You got a real love (Real love)
You got it (Yeah)
Swear it only takes one time to fuck it all up (All up)
When you got a real one (Ooh, ooh)
You got a real love (Ooh, ooh)
You got a real love (Real love)
