Lyrics

[INTRO]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I put my heart on the line
But this love's a crime

[VERSE 1]
Heart’s exposed, I wear it on my sleeve
But you don’t understand the pain I weave
Running shadows, caught in the night
You want your life back, babe, I’m ready to fight
Knives in my back, they’re buried so deep
Tried to show you, but I can't find peace
You scream and cry, can’t take no more
But every time I leave, I keep coming back for more

[CHORUS]
I put my heart on the line
And you don’t like that I get caught up in crime
Yeah, you tell me you want your life back
Stay with me, baby, I’ll get on the right track
But first, I got my demons to face
Still, I promise there’s love in this space

[HOOK]
Baby, listen to meeee, don’t walk away
I know it’s messy, but I’m here to stay
Got my brothas with me, we don’t fear the fight
But it’s you in my heart that makes it feel right

[VERSE 2]
Running too long, gotta end this chase
Gotta lay it down before I lose my place
You keep snapping, I can feel the heat
But trust me, darling, you’re my heart’s heartbeat
In the back end, I’m watching the scheme
Trying to change, but unraveling the dream
I know you’re tired of these lies and schemes
But baby, with you, I wanna build real dreams

[CHORUS]
I put my heart on the line
And you don’t like that I get caught up in crime
Yeah, you tell me you want your life back
Stay with me, baby, I’ll get on the right track
But first, I got my demons to face
Still, I promise there’s love in this space

[BRIDGE]
Kick me to the curb, I’m dead to you, ooh ooh
But love ain’t easy, and neither are the truths
I’m just a ghost when you’re not by my side
But just for you, baby, I’ll swallow my pride

[HOOK]
Baby, listen to meeee, don’t walk away
I know it’s messy, but
