Untitled


It gets inside you like a heartbeat and makes you move your body
Even the way you breathe mimics the drums that he strokes with such care
It speaks to your heart and gets the brain in a state of euphoria taking over body and soul
So I let go and lose control
Fade away into the sounds and my thoughts steer
They know their way around
So hi that I can't feel the ground
He came in and sang the right song
Putting the beats into rhythm
Vibing with eyes closed tight praying it’s not a dream
Like I will be the #1 draft on his team, his all star player and leading lady
Taking the fall to complement his swag and update is status
Completing the meal like the perfect wine, it gets better with time
Time that we invest to see it double and watch our assets grow
Only to find out the day dream is made real by the average hoe
They look for their gateway and wait to strike
Seeing the vulnerable as weakness and pounce like lioness looking for prey
All I wanted was to lie in your arms for another day



I loved the chase and you got me hooked
Like a girl lost in a song waiting for the beat to drop so she can dance her pain away
Going out every night hiding behind a smile
Heart on her neck hidden by her long brown hair
Not on her sleeve because that's where he would look first
Right under her mind and connecting to the spine
She waits for him to bring her to life, color in the lines and one day say you're mine

You're flaws is what drew me to you
The unpredictability kept me wanting more
The confusion made me sure that we would make it
It was written all over my face
I didn't understand how or why I understood it but I understood
And I knew that one day we would be good

I repped you hard and held you down
Thought you were different that's what made you special
You did something that was like all the other clowns
A woman’s intuition never lies and my radar went off when you stepped out
Trying to be slick claiming you just saw a friend
The least you coulda' done is kept it in the QC
You come to the port thinking I wouldn't know
In my back pocket?
Really?
At least you didn't come to me with some fake alibi

What are you going to do?
I show you no emotion
For all you know I'm hangin' out with my girls sun bathing by the ocean
Go back to the queen and realize you lost your B
Silence kills you so you act out
You won't see one tear or my lips pout
I lost my best friend
Where is your soul?
When you find it, come back maybe I’ll be around
Doubt it
I told merry I'm dizzy and it’s my time to go
I gotta' fly on my own with no cares or fears
So she let me off then started spinning around again
You're still caught in the whirl wind
I hope you find what you're looking for because the confusion made my stomach weak
Now I don't even have the energy to speak

Doesn’t it make my brown eyes blue?
Headed to Philly
Hurdled the Penn
Went out on broad
Bought some new shoes

I'm going to be like the eagle
Drop a pebble
See if you catch it
Drop a stick
Whatcha' going to do with it?
Drop the weight of an egg
Swoop down and get it
My weight falls
If you prove yourself, you'll gain it all

Waiting to see what happens
My back up against the wall
It's another season or the long haul?
I wait to see because I don't think it’s going to be you at all
You served your purpose
I clean my plate and wash the surface
