[Verse 1] Feel like I done run out of my luck Damn, this love shit one hell of a drug I been trippin’, deep down in my feelings Tryna turn your house to my home
[Pre-Chorus] Hey, what’s up? Feelin’ rushed? Did I call at a bad time? Yeah, I can tell in your tone you’re ashamed, tellin’ more lies I been up all night at home, tell me where you been Never thought I’d be the one who be callin’ friends But I guess it’s true, I’m stuck on you Don’t know what to do
[Chorus] I’m goin’ down, down I can’t get up (I can’t get up) You be the reason why I never give my trust And it hurts so bad Tell me how to stand whеn the tide comes in I’m tryin’, but it’s hard Lovе is sink or swim I’m goin’ down, down I can’t get up (I can’t get up) You be the reason why I never give my trust And it hurts so bad Tell me how to stand when the tide comes in I’m tryin’, but it’s hard Love is sink or swim
[Verse 2] It’s sink or swim Emotions, they all in the wind I won’t pretend, you can’t even trust your friends Could’ve did it, but never did it Boy, seems like you love doin’ me wrong
[Pre-Chorus] Hey, what’s up? Feelin’ rushed? Did I call at a bad time? Yeah, I can tell in your tone you’re ashamed, tellin’ more lies I been up all night at home, tell me where you been Never thought I’d be the one who be callin’ friends But I guess it’s true, I’m stuck on you Don’t know what to do
[Chorus] I’m goin’ down, down I can’t get up (I can’t get up) You be the reason why I never give my trust And it hurts so bad Tell me how to stand when the tide comes in I’m tryin’, but it’s hard Love is sink or swim I’m goin’ down, down I can’t get up (I can’t get up) You be the reason why I never give my trust And it hurts so bad Tell me how to stand when the tide comes in I’m tryin’, but it’s hard Love is sink or swim
[Bridge] You don’t understand what my mind’s thinkin’ Tell me that I’m crazy, tell me that I’m trippin’ Tears in my eyes, what am I missin’? Used to be the one that you wanted, oh, damn Got me singin’ this song since you left me alone You just do what you want and I’ll try to move on Pain in my heart, I’m takin’ a loss Boy, your love cost too much And I’m broken
[Chorus] I’m goin’ down, down I can’t get up (I can’t get up) You be the reason why I never give my trust And it hurts so bad Tell me how to stand when the tide comes in I’m tryin’, but it’s hard Love is sink or swim (Sink or swim) I’m goin’ down, down I can’t get up (I can’t get up) You be the reason why I never give my trust (The reason, the reason, the reason) And it hurts so bad Tell me how to stand when the tide comes in I’m tryin’, but it’s hard Love is sink or swim
[Outro: Mary J. Blige] When your heart gets broken, it seems like everything is wrong Everything is failing You can’t work, you can’t sleep You can’t think, you can’t eat And it’s not even you, it’s this person that’s not ready And you’re beautiful and you deserve better That’s my only thing I can say to you, sis Guard that heart
