Things Happen

People fallin' in and out of love That would be the only time that I won't hit the ground running Momma told me things happen But how do we make sure that they don't happen to us Happen to us How do we make sure that they don't happen to us Cuz we're in love But is love not enough these days Growin' up my best friend called it his dads's crib I ain't get it I just thought that he was possessive or never mentioned his mom Because he liked his dad more And moms was somewhere being a bad sport Somewhere trippin' without a passport but they took turns packin' the Jansport But aside from not being together He had the best mother and father he could've ever asked for Fast forward take a walk in his sandals Imagine having a relationship without an example You got a problem but you've never seen it properly handled You on ya phone social media watching immediate blocking Feeding ya relationship and being fed up Know the difference, one is demonstrating commitment And the other one is callin' it quits when somebody isn't Is it too much or something missing All I know is I'm seeing too many People fallin' in and out of love That would be the only time that I won't hit the ground running Momma told me things happen But how do we make sure that they don't happen to us Happen to us How do we make sure that they don't happen to us Cuz we're in love But is love not enough these days Grown and out the house when my parents split up What went down to make the marriage go up in flames Ideal image of love wasn't the same Echoes of arguments I heard over the phone were stuck in my brain Nothin' insane but it affected me still Felt the tension in the room when we chilled I'm thinkin' bout how all the holidays would go down His and hers is done for, all the possessive pronouns Prayin' I was never in the middle of a showdown Would I have to make a choice and pick a side to hold down How's my lil sister holding up Would she wanna talk it with me, are we close enough Wifey brought me back to God He cleared everything up for me Told me not worry as long as you stay in touch with me One of many ways she illustrated her love for me Even when I think that she's done and she's had enough of me Luckily we'd never be like all of these People fallin' in and out of love That would be the only time that I won't hit the ground running Momma told me things happen But how do we make sure that they don't happen to us Happen to us How do we make sure that they don't happen to us Cuz we're in love But is love not enough these days
