**IT AIN’T THAT SERIOUS**
[Intro]
rules done changed now.
We just kickin’ it.
You can date as many as you want to,
Never have to tell nobody the truth.
Long as you say, “We just kickin’ it,”
There ain’t no loyalty expected from you.
Different city every Friday night,
Fly her in and show her paradise.
A weekend full of grown-up things,
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 aches for.
Nobody’s cheating if nobody claims it.
Nobody’s leaving if nobody names it.
Keep your feelings somewhere out of sight,
Then tell yourself that everything’s alright.
“It ain’t that serious,” we just kickin 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 cost—
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.
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 diamond ring.
She won’t depend, he won’t provide,
Everybody’s protecting their pride.
They learned how to leave 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 want to show her how.”
Then wonders why after twenty-five 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 kickin 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 cost—
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.
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 D M's
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 strings” is the safest lie
When everybody wants someone to choose them for life.
We just kickin’ it—
Don’t ask where it’s going.
We just kickin’ it—
Don’t admit what you’re hoping.
We just kickin’ it—
Don’t let your heart get involved.
But if nobody loves anymore,
Tell me, what did we solve?
“It ain’t that serious,” we just kickin 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 life really begins
Tell me it ain’t that serious then.
just kickin it......just kickin it......kickin it....kickin it
