Do for Love Lyrics

(Turn it up loud)
(Ayy man)
(You a little sucka for love, 'Pac)(I can't lie)
(Word up)(I'm a sucka for love)

I shoulda seen you was trouble right from the start
Taught me so many lessons
How not to mess with broken hearts, so many questions
When this began we was the perfect match, perhaps
We had some problems but we workin' at it, and now
The arguments are gettin' loud, I wanna stay
But I can't help from walkin' out, let's throw it away
Just take my hand and understand, if you could see
I never planned to be a man it just wasn't me
But now I'm searchin' for commitment, in other arms
I wanna shelter you from harm, don't be alarmed
Your attitude was the cause, you got me stressin'
Soon as I open up the door with your jealous questions
Like, where can I be? You're killin' me with your jealousy
Now my ambition's to be free
I can't breathe, 'cause soon as I leave, it's like a trap
I hear you callin' me to come back, I'm a sucka for love

What you won't do, do for love (that's right)
You tried everything, but you don't give up

What you won't do, do for love (sucka for love)
You tried everything, but you don't give up (no, baby)

Just when I thought I broke away and I'm feelin' happy
You try to trap me say you pregnant and guess who the daddy
Don't wanna fall for it, but in this case what could I do? So now I'm back
To makin' promises to you, tryna keep it true
What if I'm wrong, a trick to keep me on and on
Tryin' to be strong and in the process, keep you goin'
I'm bout to lose my composure, I'm gettin' close
To packin' up and leavin' notes, and gettin' ghost (ooh-oh)
Tell me who knows, a peaceful place where I can go
To clear my head I'm feelin' low, losin' control
My heart is sayin' leave, oh what a tangled web we weave
When we conspire to conceive, and now
You gettin' calls at the house, guess you cheatin'
That's all I need to hear 'cause I'm leavin', I'm out the do'
Never no more will you see me, this is the end
'Cause now I know you've been cheatin', I'm a sucka for love

What you won't do, do for love (sucka for love)
You tried everything, but you don't give up (don't give up)
What you won't do, do for love (oh yeah, sucka for love)
You tried everything, but you don't give up (no, baby)

Now he left you with scars, tears on your pillow and you still stay
As you sit and pray, hopin' the beatings'll go away
It wasn't always a hit and run relationship
It use to be love, happiness and companionship
Remember when I treated you good
I moved you up to hills, out the ills of the ghetto hood
Me and you a happy home, when it was on
I had a love to call my own (own)
I shoulda seen you was trouble but I was lost, trapped in your eyes
Preoccupied with gettin' tossed, no need to lie
You had a man and I knew it, you told me
Don't worry 'bout it we can do it now I'm under pressure (yeah)
Make a decision cause I'm waitin', when I'm alone
I'm on the phone havin' secret conversations, huh
I wanna take your misery, replace it with happiness
But I need your faith in me, I'm a sucka for love

What you won't do, do for love (what you won't do for love)
You tried everything, but you don't give up (every little thing)
What you won't do, do for love (you don won't do for love, my pretty baby)
You tried everything, but you don't give up (no)
What you won't do, do for love (I'm sucka for love)
You tried everything, but you don't give up (oh-ooh, oh)
What you won't do, do for love (sucka for love)
You tried everything (sucka for love), but you don't give up (oh)
What you won't do, do for love (do)
You tried everything (every little thing, babe), but you don't give up (no)
What you won't do, do for love
You tried everything, but you don't give up (do for love)

(Do for love)
Yeah baby, yeah
(Do for love)

What is the Meaning of Do for Love?

In the labyrinth of emotions, one often gets lost in the pursuit of love. This song paints a vivid picture of a man ensnared by love, battling with his feelings and the realities of a tumultuous relationship. The lyrics reflect on the struggles faced when love becomes an obsession, leading to compromises and sacrifices that may not always be reciprocated. It's about the desperation to hold onto a relationship that's falling apart, despite being aware of its toxicity. The song is a poignant reminder that love can sometimes make us blind to our own well-being, pushing us into a cycle of pain and forgiveness. But it also highlights an important life lesson - understanding where to draw the line in relationships. #LoveStruggles #Obsession #ToxicRelationships #LifeLessons
