[Verse 2]
I don't wanna✦ play the blame game, nah, that is not me
I can pack my own bags, no use tryna✦ stop me
I got my mind made, a spade is a spade, ma
You took what we had and made it bad, what's to save now?
Relationship is gone, ain't no heart here
Just an ice box where it was, if it's not clear
Let me make it for you — we are over,✦ find another
Ain't no use in tryna✦ reason✦ with this stupid✦ motherfucker
I never✦ shoulda trust us, you was dirty✦ from the jumpstreet
You wanted✦ a rap star, you ain't really✦ want me
Settle for a anybody, shit you done was idiotic
You thought I was broke, huh? Bitch, I'm gettin'✦ plenty✦ money✦
That shit is really✦ funny,✦ you gave me the ten count
You threw in the towel on me, then brought that Benz out
You at your friend's house booed up with some dude
With pictures on your Instagram, smiling with him, fuck you
[Chorus]
Let us fly to the heart
It's a fight for the love
Simple words weren't✦ enough✦
I don't know, I don't know
I'm so lost, so lonely✦
Where she goin', where she goin'?
It feels like I'm in hell
I don't know, I don't know
[Verse 3]
Hey, it's a new me, I hope you found new you
And got your shit together, I ain't mad, baby,✦ do you
There's✦ plenty✦ other✦ dudes✦ to fall in lust with
For holidays, or any✦ other✦ days you put your trust in
You're a must win, losing ain't an option✦
You don't wanna✦ work
You want the finer✦ things, stop this
You ain't no better✦ than the next bitch beggin'✦
Can't pour piss out of them boots you put your legs in
And even✦ want a fairytale wedding
Like a nigga✦ wanna✦ wife you, and I don't even✦ like you
The love gone, how am I gon' write a love song?
I'm wishing you the best, but wouldn't fuck you with a glove on
Now girl gone, how nice of you to stop by
Bitch that you accused me of sleeping with is my wife now
Let me be nice now, here's✦ you introduction
Mrs. Jordan,✦ here's✦ that stupid✦ bitch that I was fuckin'✦
[Chorus]
Let us fly to the heart
It's a fight for the love
Simple words weren't✦ enough✦
I don't know, I don't know
I'm so lost, so lonely✦
Where she goin', where she goin'?
It feels like I'm in hell
I don't know, I don't know

Rhyme Architecture: The verse primarily utilizes a persistent AABB structure throughout the 16 lines, heavily augmented by consistent internal rhyming on end-syllables (e.g., 'jumpstreet'/'me'/'idiotic'/'money'), creating a dense, percussive feel that mimics a heated argument.
