What the song means

This song is a plea from a narrator who has been emotionally wrecked by a relationship and is begging his partner not to leave or take her loyalty elsewhere. Trippie Redd's chorus carries the request: stay, you belong here, and don't give up on love. XXXTENTACION's verse shifts from the request to his own inner turmoil.

The mood moves from tender longing in the chorus to physical and emotional collapse in the verse, where he describes feeling sick, being torn open, and being left with no tears. Images of riots and gunfire inside his head turn private grief into a kind of internal war. When the chorus returns, the same plea sounds more desperate, and the song ends on repeated, fading "yeah"s, which leave the pain unresolved.

The key images explain the emotional logic. "Switchin' sides" stands for betrayal or choosing someone else, and "where you reside" describes the place the partner holds in his heart. "My eyes are all cried out" shows exhaustion after too much grief. The title, "Fuck Love," is ironic: the song is really about how badly he needs love, even though it is hurting him.
