[English]

So surreal

The vibes I feel

It must go on, oh, oh, oh

All for you

Fiendin', fallin', crawlin', I'm stallin' for your love

You got me drinkin', smokin', I might, overdose on your love

Fiendin', fallin', crawlin', I'm stallin' for your love

You got me drinkin', smokin', I might, overdose on your love

I need to chill

Emotionally scarred, I cannot feel

Am I not the one?

Am I not the one, not the one, one for you?

You can keep it real

You get me high

You get me high, high

High enough to paint the sky for you

Every time

It's you and I

I feel revived

I would die for you

Fiendin', fallin', crawlin', I'm stallin' for your love

You got me drinkin', smokin', I might, overdose on your love

Fiendin', fallin', crawlin', I'm stallin' for your love

You got me drinkin', smokin', I might, overdose on your love

Overdose on your love
