I Love Makonnen - Forever Lyrics

[Hook - I Love Makonnen:]
You needed a love that lasted forever
For how long? Forever
I remember when you said
You needed a love that lasted forever
For how long? Forever
Yeah yeah you did
Yeah yeah I needed it
Yeah yeah you did
Yeah yeah I needed it

[Verse 1 - I Love Makonnen:]
I won't be sneaky if you treat me like the last time
Your heart is cracked because you said I was the last guy
That you would ever let get inside
I'm tryna find out how you feel inside
Your heart was bleeding when you needed
Now you left me and I'm feeling so defeated
Because I thought that we would always be
But something's changed now between you and me
And I don't understand, not again, I can't be your man

[Hook - I Love Makonnen:]
You needed a love that lasted forever
For how long? Forever
I remember when you said
You needed a love that lasted forever
For how long? Forever
Yeah yeah you did
Yeah yeah I needed it
Yeah yeah you did
Yeah yeah I needed it

[Verse 2 - 1st:]
She said it's over, over, over and over again
I just play dumb, retarded, act like it's pretend
Then she got the nerve to give me shit from a friend
Now I'm stuck here with a f*cked up bitch
I remember when you told me that you loved me
Ain't never gonna let me go, yeah
And you meant that from the bottom of your heart
Deep down in your soul, yeah
Yeah you made me feel good good from my highs down to my lows
I ain't saying you was a hoe but girl you need to learn your role
First we started f*ckin', it was cool
Then everything we liked to do just wasn't new
What's the point of playing games that we gonna lose?
Sorry baby, this is what I do

[Hook - I Love Makonnen:]
You needed a love that lasted forever
For how long? Forever
I remember when you said
You needed a love that lasted forever
For how long? Forever
Yeah yeah you did
Yeah yeah I needed it
Yeah yeah you did
Yeah yeah I needed it

[Verse 3 - Santigold:]
Mama used to say, read what's written on the wall
Been around, beneath it all, we still neanderthal
Didn't I give it all I got? Did I get my own way?
I don't know, no use in wondering, got other giants to slay
My hands up, see you late, see me out the door
Keep counting all your money, can't count me out for sure
No excuses, not the evil one, nothin' more to say
Won't lie down, not for your love, never out your way
When you hitting that, hitting that
Think you can give it all you got like that
I just keep on getting that, getting that
You'll never get ahead with a hoe like that
Got a thousand rocks all in your bed, no bitch hard like me
Idolize you, I was your big gun you see
Said we were forever, not 'til you reach the top
Use me to hold you up, just use me to hold you up

[Outro - I Love Makonnen:]
You needed
A love that lasted forever
For how long? Forever
