Do For Love
Turn it up loud
Hahaha, ahahaha, hey, man
You a little sucker for love, right?
Word up, hahahahaha
I shoulda seen
You was trouble right from the starrrrt, taught me so manylessons
How not to mess with broken hearts, so many questions
When this began we was the perfect match, perhaps
We had some problems but we workin at it, and now
The arguments are gettin loud, I wanna say
But I can't help from walkin out just a little way
Just take my hand and understand, if you could see
I never planned to be a man it just wasn't me
But now I'm searchin for commitment, in other arms
I wanna shelter you from harm, don't be alarmed
Your attitude was the cause, you got me stressin
Soon as I open up the door with your jealous questions
Like where can I be, you're killin' me with your jealousy
Now my ambition's to be free
I can't breathe, cause soon as I leave, it's like a trap
I hear you callin me to come back, I'm a sucka for love
That's right, sucka for love
What you won't do, do for love
You tried everything, but you don't give up
Just when I thought I broke away and I'm fellin happy
You try to trap me say you pregnant and guess who the daddy
Don't wanna fall for it, but in this case what could I do? So now I'm back
To makin promises to you, tryin to keep it true
What if I'm wrong, a trick to keep me on and on
Tryin to be strong and in the process, keep you goin
I'm bout to lose my composure, I'm gettin close
To packin up and leavin notes, and gettin ghost
Tell me who knows, a peaceful place where I can go
To clear my head I'm feelin low, losin control
My heart is sayin leave, oh what a tangle web we weave
When we conspire to conceive, and now
You gettin calls at the house, guess you cheatin
That's all I need to hear cause I'm leavin, I'm out the do'
Never no more will you see me, this is the end
Cause now I know you've been cheatin, I'm a sucka for love
Samn, sucka for love, sucka for love
Sucka for love
Now, he left you with scars, tears on your pillow and you stillstay
As you sit and pray, hoping the beatings'll go away
It wasn't always a hit and run relationship
It use to be love, happieness and companionship
Remember when I treated you good
I moved you up to hills, out the ills of the ghetto hood
Me and you a happy home, when it was on
I had a love to call my own
I shoulda seen you was trouble but I was lost, trapped in youreyes
Preoccupied with gettin tossed, no need to lie
You had a man and I knew it, you told me
Don't worry bout it we can do it now I'm under pressure
Make a decision cause I'm waitin, when I'm alone
I'm on the phone havin secret conversations, huh
I wanna take your misery, replace it with happiness
But I need your faith in me, I'm a sucka for love
Sucka for love, know you ain't right g but yet I'ma sucka for love
I'ma sucka for love, sucka for love
Sucka for love
A Armadilha do Amor na Visão de 2Pac
A música "Do For Love" de 2Pac, também conhecido como Tupac Shakur, é uma expressão crua e emocional das complexidades do amor e dos relacionamentos. A letra revela a luta interna de alguém que, apesar de reconhecer os sinais de problemas desde o início de um relacionamento, ainda se vê preso em um ciclo de amor e dor. Tupac usa sua habilidade lírica para descrever como ele foi ensinado a não mexer com corações partidos e como ele tentou se comprometer, mesmo sabendo que isso não estava em sua natureza.
A música também aborda temas de ciúmes e traição, elementos comuns que podem envenenar o amor. Tupac fala sobre como a atitude ciumenta de sua parceira o sufoca, levando-o a querer escapar, mas ele se encontra preso, incapaz de resistir ao apelo para voltar. Ele se descreve como um 'sucka for love', ou seja, alguém que é facilmente enganado ou manipulado pelo amor, mesmo sabendo das consequências negativas. A narrativa é agravada pela menção de uma gravidez inesperada, que o prende ainda mais na relação.
Musicalmente, "Do For Love" é um exemplo do estilo de hip-hop de 2Pac, que frequentemente mistura batidas cativantes com letras profundas e pessoais. A canção reflete a habilidade de Tupac de contar histórias e expressar vulnerabilidade, algo que não era comum no gênero na época. A música permanece como um testemunho da complexidade das emoções humanas e da luta para encontrar um equilíbrio entre o desejo de amor e a necessidade de liberdade pessoal.
