[Intro]

I ain't lie, know what's happenin' with me bae. I'm a fucked up nigga, I ain't gonna lie but I know that the first day I ever seen you, the first day I been around you, I know we was in love, I know this. You know how you feel, like fuck how it look, fuck thinkin' about it, I know how I feel. You know what I'm sayin'? And my heart don't lie to me, that's why I follow that motherfucker like this here bae, forreal


[Hook]

When you're alone at night and need somebody by your side

No matter wrong or right sayin' it's gonna be alright

No one'll hold you tight, no one'll look you in your eyes

As if it ain't okay to cry, try to be the tough guy

Think about you all the time, start to feel it backfire

No one love you like I, hope our love ain't expire

Tryna figure out why, dyin' on the inside

One day I'll get over my pride


[Verse 1]

I knew I loved you when I met you, some say this don't exist

Emotions captured, had to have you, ain't care who you was with

At your apartment off of Siegen, had a brief disagreement

You move back to Houston, we went like three years without speakin'

I got back on drugs bad while I was stillin' chasin' cheddar

My heart was broke, soft and stressin' battlin' with my depression

On top of that my team was shittin' on me harder than ever

Not a worry in the world whenever we was together

I flew you out to Miami, we laid up in the suites

Bathtub full of fruits while I was rubbin' your feet

We went to Bloomingdales, I bought us matchin' grey theory sweats

Said I ain't want you to leave before you boarded the jet


[Hook]

When you're alone at night and need somebody by your side

No matter wrong or right sayin' it's gonna be alright

No one'll hold you tight, no one'll look you in your eyes

As if it ain't okay to cry, try to be the tough guy

Think about you all the time, start to feel it backfire

No one love you like I, hope our love ain't expire

Tryna figure out why, dyin' on the inside

One day I'll get over my pride


[Verse 2]

Shoutout to Nard that's my personal trainer

He cool with you because of you I now treat him like a stranger

Big booty Shelby I know things ain't work with me and your sister

Best of what life has to offer love, you still my little sister

Pull up in vets, hear the engines, eight speed tiptronic transmission

Four door Porsche reminicisin'

Wishin' that you was here with me

I used to to tease you bout your feet

We would laugh and we'd giggle

And havin' breakfast on the beach

You don't know how much that meant to me

Holdin hands in Aventura Mall ,public affection

When you with me don't need no bodyguard, I'm your protector

Facetime, I can't wait until you call me, you special

You had that problem, now that problem solved, he won't disrespect you

Un-uhhhh, not ever


[Hook]

When you're alone at night and need somebody by your side

No matter wrong or right sayin' it's gonna be alright

No one'll hold you tight, no one'll look you in your eyes

As if it ain't okay to cry, try to be the tough guy

Think about you all the time, start to feel it backfire

No one love you like I, hope our love ain't expire

Tryna figure out why, dyin' on the inside

One day I'll get over my pride


[Outro]

I not ever love, not ever

You know I never love, not ever

No-one respect you like

Kill someone if someone disrespect you love

I see you lookin' at my girl

Yeah she a fine girl

Yeah I love the way you whine girl

She from the islands she be ooh

And ain't no lookin' at my girl

They were living together, but after a disagreement, they fell apart for three years and at this point – Gate’s lost himself in drugs and the everlasting allure of chasing money. To make matters worse he was also dealing with depression, and disputes with his team.

A continuation of the previous line, being that he fell in love at first sight, he didn’t care about her relationship status. He knew from that moment, he had to make that woman his woman.

Gate’s is referring to the controversial concept of “love at first sight”. He directly contrasts those that say it doesn’t exist but saying he’s already experienced it.
