Love

another night, another rain, another storm inside my brain
another walk alone through these same old streets again
streetlights flickering low, keeping me company
i'm taking my time, ain't no rush for me
how many years done passed? how many faces faded?
how many times i hit the ground, how many times i made it?
but i'm still here, still standing, still breathing this air
this city became my home, i swear
my home
i ain't looking for the truth, i'm looking for myself
in all this noise, in all this chaos, putting my health on the shelf
i lost a lot along the way, but i found one thing true
without you, this whole city's just empty, boo
and i know this ain't no fairy tale
you can't buy happiness, i know too well
but i'd walk through fire, through the pain and strife
if you told me you'd be right here, for life
this city ain't big enough for us two!
we're like fire and water, but we pull through!
and i believe that this shit gonna be real!
if you stay with me, for real!
for real
i don't know what tomorrow brings
i don't know who we are without this thing
but tonight i'm here, and you're right next to me
and i ain't trying to leave, you see?
remember how we started out?
scared to death, full of doubt?
looking at each other, saying nothing
too afraid to make a move, fronting?
time flew by, we grew up
city changed, people gave up
but you stayed, like a sign
like a promise, like a lifeline
a lifeline
i ain't gonna scream about love from the rooftops
i ain't gonna sing you no corny love songs
i'm just gonna be right here, always
side by side, till the end of days
and i know this ain't no fairy tale
you can't buy happiness, i know too well
but i'd walk through fire, through the pain and strife
if you told me you'd be right here, for life!
this city ain't big enough for us two!
we're like fire and water, but we pull through!
and i believe that this shit gonna be real!
if you stay with me, for real!
i don't know what tomorrow brings!
i don't know who we are without this thing!
but tonight i'm here, and you're next to me!
and i ain't trying to leave, you see?
tell me you believe in this
tell me you won't dip
tell me this city
is ours to flip
ours
i know i ain't perfect
i know i messed up plenty
but for you, i'd change it all
i'd rewrite my whole story, any
this city ain't big enough for us two!
we're like fire and water, but we pull through!
and i believe that this shit gonna be real!
if you stay with me, for real!
so i can fall in love forever!
and never love nobody else, ever!
i'd do anything, you hear me?
just stay right here, near me!
never leave
