Risk It All Song Lyrics
[Intro: H.E.R. & USHER, Both]
Mmm
Let's go, yeah
Oh, oh, ooh
Oh, oh
Mmm
Yeah, yeah, yeah, baby
Listen
[Verse 1: USHER]
Like a condition, like a religion
So easily mistreated, scary decision
Sometimes it's Hell and sometimes it's Heaven
It's overcomplicated, but, baby
[Chorus: USHER, USHER & H.E.R.]
I don't mind
Feelin' like I'm bound to fall
Close my eyes
Baby, I would risk it all, yeah
[Verse 2: H.E.R. & USHER, H.E.R.]
Sometimes it's tragic, so problematic
People are cryin' for it, people are dyin' for it
Always the reason (Always) we still believe it (These days)
Somethin' that leaves us hurtin' is worth it
[Chorus: USHER & H.E.R., Both]
I don't mind
Feelin' like I'm bound to fall (Fallin', fallin', oh yeah)
Close my eyes
Baby, I would risk it all, oh, oh
[Post-Chorus: H.E.R. & USHER, Both]
Just to be in love (Love)
Be, be in love (Love)
Oh, I just wanna be (Be in love, love)
Be in love (Love, yeah)
[Chorus: H.E.R. & USHER, Both]
I don't mind
Feelin' like I'm bound to fall (Oh, baby)
Baby, I close my eyes
Baby, I would risk it all, oh, oh (Ooh, I)
I don't mind
Feelin' like I'm bound to fall (Fall)
Oh, close my eyes
Baby, I would risk it all
[Outro: H.E.R. & USHER, Both]
Oh, just to be in love
Be in love
Be in love
Be in love, be in love, love, yeah

The song begins with a portrayal of love as a powerful force that can be both fulfilling and didtressing: "Like a condition, like a religion / So easily mistreated, scary decision." This suggests that love is an overwhelming experience that requires commitment and sometimes leads to difficult choices.
The chorus encapsulates the essence of the song: "I don't mind / Feelin' like I'm bound to fall / Close my eyes / Baby, I would risk it all." These lines express a readiness to embrace love despite its uncertainties and the potential for heartache. The metaphor of falling implies a surrender to the unpredictability of love, indicating a deep emotional investment worth the potential consequences.
Verse 2 further explores love's dichotomy: "Sometimes it's tragic, so problematic / People are cryin' for it, people are dyin' for it." Here, love is portrayed as an intense emotion that can lead to both sorrow and ecstasy, underlining its powerful impact on human lives.
The post-chorus, "Just to be in love / Be, be in love," reiterates the longing for the profound connection and fulfillment that comes with being in love, despite the inherent risks.
In summary, "Risk It All" is a poignant reflection on the nature of love as an intense, sometimes conflicting experience. It acknowledges the challenges and pain that can accompany love while also celebrating its beauty and the willingness to embrace it fully, even if it means risking everything.
