But despite all the ups and downs, the speaker still chooses love because it is the one thing that they can't live without. The chorus talks about the fickleness of people who use the name of love in vain and how even those who have faith in love can sometimes go astray.
The speaker in the song is in love with someone but is afraid to express their feelings because they fear it might change how their love interest perceives them. The song 'Love' by Musiq & Musiq Soulchild is about the complexity of love and how it can simultaneously bring both joy and hurt.
