Kanye West True Love

Kanye West True Love

“TRUE LOVE” sees Kanye West and the late XXXTENTACION singing about the complicated nature of love and their struggles to keep their relationships alive on a beat reminiscent of Ye’s magnum opus, “Runaway.” This marks the second official collaboration between the two artists, following X’s December 2018 posthumous track, “One Minute.”

The song debuted on February 22, 2022, as the opener of the Miami listening party for Ye’s eleventh studio album, DONDA 2.

The song was released on Ye’s Stem Player platform on February 24, 2022, with different drums from the listening party version. The next day the Stadium Version was released, and the drums were changed back to how it was heard live in Miami.

Lyrics

[Chorus: XXXTENTACION]
True love shouldn’t be this complicated
Thought I’d die in your arms
I thought I’d die in your—
True love shouldn’t be this complicated
Thought I’d die in your arms
I thought I’d die in your—

[Verse: Kanye West]
No hard feelings, but these feelings harder
When I think about it, my eyes fill up with water
Don’t have our daughters butterfly while they larvae
Wait, when you see the kids? I’ll see y’all tomorrow
Wait, when the sun set? I see y’all tomorrow
Wait, when I pick ’em up, I feel like they borrowed
When I gotta return them, scan ’em like a bar code
Wait, no hard feelings, but these feelings hard though
Wait, who got the kids in those “What are those?”
Wait, why they can’t wear Yeezys with the cargos?
Y’all know Nike don’t like me, y’all take it too far, though
At least have ’em in some Mike’s, he played for Chicago
I only see three kids, who watchin’ Chicago?
And you know all the nannies said, “Daddy in Nebrasko”
Let the kids dig a tunnel to my house like Chapo
Only neighbor in the hood with a door they can knock on
I leave the light on

[Chorus: XXXTENTACION & Kanye West]
True love (Daddy’s not gone) shouldn’t be this complicated
(You see the light on)
Thought I’d die in your arms (Daddy’s at home)
I thought I’d die in your— (Tell Gekyume)
True love (Daddy’s not gone) shouldn’t be this complicated (Tell Gekyume)
Thought I’d die in your arms (Daddy’s at home)
I thought I’d die in your—

[Bridge: XXXTENTACION]
Oh, woah, oh, woah, oh, woah
Oh, woah, oh, woah, oh, woah (Love)
Oh, woah, oh, woah, oh, woah
Oh, woah, oh, woah, oh, woah

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus: XXXTENTACION]
True love shouldn’t be this complicated
Thought I’d die in your arms
I thought I’d die in your—
True love shouldn’t be this complicated
Thought I’d die in your arms
I thought I’d die in your—

[Outro: XXXTENTACION]
Oh, woah, oh, woah, oh, woah
Oh, woah, oh, woah, oh, woah (Love)
Oh, woah, oh, woah, oh, woah
Oh, woah, oh, woah, oh, woah
