Love Is Blind Lyrics

	


Hey, yo I don't even know you and I hate you 
See all I know is that my girlfriend used to date you 
How would you feel if she held you down and raped you? 
Tried and tried, but she never could escape you 
She was in love and I'd ask her how? I mean why? 
What kind of love from a nigga would black your eye? 
What kind of love from a nigga every night make you cry? 
What kind of love from a nigga make you wish he would die? 
I mean shit he bought you things and gave you diamond rings 
But them things wasn't worth none of the pain that he brings 
And you stayed, what made you fall for him? 
That nigga had the power to make you crawl for him 
I thought you was a doctor be on call for him 
Smacked you down cause he said you was too tall for him, huh? 
That wasn't love, babygirl you was dreamin' 
I could have killed you when you said your seed was growin' from his semen 

1 - Love is blind, and it will take over your mind 
What you think is love, is truly not 
You need to elevate and find 
Repeat 1 

I don't even know you and I'd kill you myself 
You played with her like a doll and put her back on the shelf 
Wouldn't let her go to school and better herself 
She had a baby by your ass and you ain't giving no help 
Uh-huh big time hustler, snake motherfucker 
One's born everyday and everyday she was your sucker 
How could you beat the mother of your children? 
How could you tell her that you lover her? 
Don't give a fuck if she lives 
She told me she would leave you, I admit it she did 
But came back, made up a lie about you missing your kids 
Sweet kisses, baby didn't even know she was your mistress 
Had to deal with fist fights and phone calls from your bitches 
Floss like you possess her, tellin' me to mind my business 
Said that it was her life and stay the fuck out of it 
I tried and said just for him I'll keep a ready clip 

Repeat 1 (2x) 

I don't even know you and I want you dead 
Don't know the facts but I saw the blood pour from her head 
See I laid down beside her in the hospital bed 
And about two hours later, doctors said she was dead 
Had the nerve to show up at her mother's house the next day 
To come and pay your respects and help the family pray 
Even knelt down on one knee and let a tear drop 
And before you had a chance to get up 
You heard my gun cock 
Prayin' to me now, I ain't God but I'll pretend 
I ain't start your life but nigga I'mma bring it to an end 
And I did, clear shots and no regrets 
‘Member cops comin' in, watch me going to jail 
Nigga whatever my bitch, fuck it my sister 
You could never figure out even if I let you live 
What our love was all about 
I considered her my blood and it don't come no thicker 

Repeat 1 till end

this song s very honest, apart from the eve killing the guy and (sorry to getr technical on u folks!) the part with the baby being born from the seamen. seamen is the stuff that helps the spearm along, not the thing that fertilises the egg. i love the chorus, it is so simple, yet so meaningful.

If you watch the video, its dedicated to a friend of Eve's.

I think its a true story, and the ending is what she wished she could have done to him. A common response to grief, especially a murder. She wants to kill the guy, who beat and abused and eventually killed her best friend.

I love Eve's creativity she places in all her lyrics. How she manages to weave words together so they sound right. I love seeing female artists out there speaking about issues such as this one.

Overall it's a great song.
