[English]

Heaven, help me

If love ain't dead, I'ma kill it 'cause it's killin' me

Cold world, don't be livin' in a fantasy

Got me, it's the only thing I'll ever need

Heaven, help me

If love ain't dead, I'ma kill it 'cause it's killin' me

Love is a drug, methamphetamine

D-A-R-E, they'll be hooked on me

Y'all, who you think you sassing? (Sassing)

Say whoa, baby, I'm a classic (Classic)

Say whoa, something like a Hitchcock

Say whoa, got you goin' psycho (Psycho)

Oh no, don't you get your shit rocked

Say whoa, Kesha with the tick tock

Say whoa, time's up on these motherfuckers

Say whoa, what you say, what you say, sucker?

Say whoa (What you say?)

If you think you got me dickmatized

(Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah)

I need to get you out of my life

Can I get an amen?

Heaven, help me

If love ain't dead, I'ma kill it 'cause it's killin' me

Cold world, don't be livin' in a fantasy

Got me, it's the only thing I'll ever need

Heaven, help me

If love ain't dead, I'ma kill it 'cause it's killing me

Love is a drug, methamphetamine

D-A-R-E, they'll be hooked on me

Hit 'em with the Bible (Bible), say whoa

Hit 'em with the drive-by (Brrr), say whoa

Hit 'em with the dry cry (Dry cry), say whoa

Then you get a new guy, hello

Even if you are the love of my life

(Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah)

Sorry, baby, I got too much pride

Heaven, help me

If love ain't dead, I'ma kill it 'cause it's killing me

Cold world, don't be livin' in a fantasy

Got me, it's the only thing I'll ever need

Heaven, help me

If love ain't dead, I'ma kill it 'cause it's killing me

Love is a drug, methamphetamine

D-A-R-E, they'll be hooked on me

Heaven, help me

If love ain't dead, I'ma kill it 'cause it's killing me

Ooh, can I get an amen? (Amen)

...

Been thinking about you, thinking about you

Thinking about you baby

If love didn't drive me crazy, maybe I'd be your baby

Trust, baby, you can't make me beg or try to change, hey
