Love

If 50 Cent can get shot 9 times and carry on
I can get my heart broke by 9 girls and still want to marry one
I can learn to give my all to someone else, even if it wasn't enough before
I'm ready to go on the battlefield, because love is war

I've carried the weight of the world on my shoulders now I've got a bad back
I've been hurt more times than I've been happy, that's a sad fact
But I'm still smiling and finding a way to continue my journey
Nothing out there can stop me, even if it hurts me

I hated her for a while because of how she left me broken
My heart is locked, but I'm working to get it open
I locked it to protect myself, but I need a new girl to take care of it
Until my smile becomes real, this fake one I'm wearing it 

I hated love because of how it betrayed me
I thought life was a B, but now I'm dressing it up as a lady
There's a girl out there for me, I guess I have to go through the wrong ones first
Sometimes you need to be under valued before you start to see your true worth 

People won't always love you back and there's nothing you can do
But please don't think there's something wrong with you
We're all pawns in a game played by cupid
We're on the battlefield hoping to find a way through it

If 50 Cent can get shot 9 times and carry on
I can get my heart broke by 9 girls and still want to marry one
I can learn to give my all to someone else, even if it wasn't enough before
I'm ready to go on the battlefield, because love is war
