Lyrics and translation

Original

-It's true, alas.

-How do you smell like that? You are, in fact, my petrichor.

May I be sprung? How do you move like that?

Through hell and back, my heart's at war.

Is this how it feels to fall in love with you? I don't know.

Is this how it feels to fall in love with you? I don't know.

But only faith can feel like that, oh. Da, ooh, da-da, ooh.

Da, ooh, da, ooh.

But only faith can feel like that. Da, ooh, da-da, ooh.

Da, ooh, da, -ooh. But only faith can feel like that. -Yo, Wale, look, huh.

Okay, biggie, biggie, heavy, heavy. If there's something better than me, baby, better tell me.

I'm not a telepathic nigga, I'm empathetic.

That mean I'm feeling everything, but only if you let me. Okay, I'm done with my options, I wanted you to arrive.

Took me up that cloud nine, now my gravity died.

I tried lifting you up, I tried putting it down. High taking accountability don't even count.

Hey, look, now one time, y'all. Can't even say that we ain't try, nah, look. Shawty, are my eyes wrong?

Stop leaking, I'm defeated and it's my fault.

Okay, love is a tragedy if you don't get it right. I carry the scars, I lost a formidable fight. I'm buried in bed unless

I'm by a therapy couch. Just earned a salt, my flaws put a lid on my life.

A literal light you are, nah, I'd rather be blind. I'd probably should call but nah,

I'm way too timid to try, uh. Anxious attachment style, I'm deeply sorry.

But -why you way too sweet a goodbye?

-Is this how it feels to fall in love with you? I don't know.

Is this how it feels to fall in love with you?

I don't know.

But only faith can feel like that, oh.

Da, ooh, da-da, ooh. Da, ooh, da, ooh.

But only faith can feel like that. Da, ooh, da-da, ooh. Da, ooh, da, ooh.

But only faith can feel like that.
