Lyrics & Translation

Dive into the raw, unapologetic language of modern R&B and Pop with Jessie Murph and 6lack's "Forever." This track is a masterclass in using direct, contemporary English to express complex, conflicted emotions—from intense anger to passionate desire—in an on-again, off-again relationship. Listen closely to the contrasting verses to understand how artists blend raw vulnerability with casual, explicit language to capture a universal, yet complicated, form of 'forever' love.

[English]

Today, if I don't do it today

He'll be the death of me, before the coffee is made

I'll look him right in the face

Say "I don't need ya, " say "I'll leave ya"

But he knows me better

I got amnesia, yeah, ah-ah-ah

I go from "Fuck you forever" to "I might just fuck you forever"

I go from "Jump off a bridge" then I jump on that dick

I fucking lay down a law, but then you let down them drawers

And I can never say never, so I might just fuck you forever

Forever and ever, we fuck forever and ever

We fuck forever and ever

I might just fuck you forever

(Can't be a fuck 'cause we fuck forever)

First, we ice, then we unbalanced, ay

I like love when it's a challenge, ay

Got your number like an accountant, ay

Your last one, I wouldn't count it, ay

Don't crash out, need alignment

Clock me with perfect timing

Can't block, I know what your sign is

Tryna hide the truth, time to find it

She wanna be touched for reasons, the list 'bout long as a season

And we both need it

And I try to fight the feelin', but I'm feelin' so defeated

And when we don't fuck, I feel so depleted

When we make up, I feel so completed

I been thinkin' 'bout forever and ever

F and then U, that's my two favorite letters, yeah

I go from "Fuck you forever", to "I might just fuck you forever"

I go from "Jump off a bridge" then I jump on that dick

I fucking lay down a law, but then you let down them drawers

And I can never say never, so I might just fuck you forever

Forever and ever, we fuck forever and ever

We fuck forever and ever

I might just fuck you forever

Today, I just can't do it today

He'll be the death of me

He'll be the death of me

The death of me, the death of me

I go from "Fuck you forever", to "I might just fuck you forever"

I go from "Jump off a bridge" then I jump on that dick

I fucking lay down a law, but then you let down them drawers

And I can never say never, so I might just fuck you forever

Forever and ever, we fuck forever and ever

We fuck forever and ever

I might just fuck you forever
