You see a side and
It’s another side I’m hiding
But when we get in private
I lose self control
You like it when I’m riding (for u)
Ima let you drive it
You break it you buy it
You taking me home

I know you’re wondering
If this is really all there is?
Why we always end up on this ride?
I know it means something
Why you always down play it
You can’t go without us
Dont lie
Don’t lie
It’s more than some nights
Know I got options
I put them aside
This theme adds depth to the song, as it touches upon the reality that relationships can sometimes offer a fleeting sense of security, despite the strong emotional bond between two people.
