[English]

- When you walk in the house, show me love (21)

It ain't even gotta be Valentine's Day

I'ma still leave some roses by the tub (On God)

Go through so much in the street

I just want to come home to a meal and a hug

(Straight up)

The opps wanna kill me, you wanna argue

I sleep in a trap and just thug (I swear)

But I'd rather you show me some love (21)

I'd rather you show me it's real (Real)

I'd rather you tell me your feelings

Than act like I'm tripping and high on a pill

(On God)

Don't say that you crazy in love with me

'Cause being crazy could lead you to kill

(For sure)

And money ain't nothing,

there's people who happy in love

And behind on they bill (21)

And they haven't paid they mortgage in years

(On God)

Let me help you fight your fears

Can't turn my back

When my grandma died, you helped me wipe my tears

(21)

Cold-hearted when I opened up

Man, your love, was that a bear? (Too late)

By the time you realize it was PTSD,

You ain't even care (Damn, you ain't even care)

- Show me love

Treat it like we freaking on the weekend,

show me love

I heat up the seconds, times and reasons

for your love

This is not the season for nobody else but us

I always get wrapped up in you, baby, I'm in love

We gon' get this love, yeah like we never done it

Baby, I'm in love

Go 'head, show me love, like we never done it

Ooh, I got you running every time I give you some

Show me love like you see red lights

And you crashed in it

Like a deer inside of headlights

- Yeah, I show you love like it was passionate

I just wanna bask in it,

Winning it like a championship

- You gon' show me love, like, like you tried it

(Yeah)

and denied it (Yeah)

But you still let me apply it (Yeah)

Like I made you put your ties in

Show me love, even when you don't got time to

- I'll be there to find you

- I'll remind you

Show me love

Treat it like we freaking on the weekend,

Show me love

I heat up the seconds, times and reasons

for your love

This is not the season for nobody else but us

I always get wrapped up in you, baby, I'm in love

- We gon' get this love, yeah,

like we never done it

Baby, I'm in love

- Go 'head, show me love, like we never done it

(Ooh)

- I got you running

- Every time I give you some

- Yeah
