IT AIN’T THAT SERIOUS (Remastered)

Lyrics

It ain't that serious
Rules don't change now
We just kicking it
You can date as many as you want to
Never have to tell nobody the truth
Long as you say
We just kicking it
There ain't no loyalty expected from you
different city every Friday night
Flyer in and show a paradise weekend full of grown-up thing
Then send her home with designer dreams. No promises made no questions asked no reason to wonder how long it'll last
She got a gift he got what he came for but neither knows what the other one makes for
Nobody's cheating if nobody claims it
Nobody's leaving if nobody names it
Keep your feelings somewhere out of sight
And tell yourself that everything's alright
It ain't that serious, we just kicking it
That's what they say
When feelings start getting in the way
No commitment, no wedding rings
No forever attached to anything
Everybody staying in their own lane
Nobody willing to carry love's weight
We call it freedom, but look what it costs
A generation acting like love is lost
It ain't that serious
That's what they say
But everybody looks lonely
At the end of the day
Yeah, yeah
Women saying, I don't need a man
I make my money, I got my own plan
Men saying, I only need one thing
No house, no vows, no down the rain
She won't depend, he won't provide
Everybody's protecting their pride
They learn how to lead before love gets deep
How to share a bed without losing sleep
He says he doesn't want a virgin now
Too much pressure, don't wanna show her how
Then wonders why after 25 years
She's still holding on to it through all her tears
Maybe she waited because she believed
Her body and heart shouldn't have to leave separately
They laugh and say, it's not that deep
But some things were never meant to come cheap
It ain't that serious, we just kicking it
That's what they say, when feelings start getting in the way
No commitment, no wedding rings
No forever attached to anything
Everybody staying in their own lane
Nobody willing to carry love's weight
We call it freedom, but look what it costs
A generation acting like love is lost
It ain't that serious, we just kickin' it, that's what they say
But everybody looks lonely at the end of the day
Oh, who's gonna stay when the good time ends?
Who's gonna hold you when you can't pretend?
Who knows your scars, your fears, your past?
Who's building something that was meant to last?
You can have options in every town
But who will be there when life breaks you down?
Followers, lovers, likes and DMs
All those names in your phone, a hundred connections
Still sleeping alone
Maybe love
Never changed its rules
Maybe we changed
Because we're scared to lose
Maybe no strength
Is the safest life
When everybody wants someone to choose them for life
We just kicking it
Don't ask where it's going
We just kicking it
Don't admit what you're hoping
We just kicking it
Don't let your heart get involved
But if nobody loves anymore
Tell me, what did we solve in that serious?
We just kicking it, keep saying that line
While secretly searching for somebody to call mine
No commitment, no wedding rings
Just temporary people and temporary things
Maybe love is serious, maybe that's the truth
Maybe we're just scared of what real love asks us to do
When it is all said and done
And your lie really begins
Please tell me it ain't that serious this time
Just kickin' it
Kickin' it, kickin' it, kickin' it, kickin' it, kickin' it
Thanks for watching!
