I never knew, it'd be hard to tell you |
|
that I love you, matter of fact feelin so taboo, like a tattoo, |
|
hidden on my sleeve when I sleep |
|
and I dream of a scene as it seems |
|
when I got home from school, and feelin so uncool, |
|
cuz the rest of my friends, their parents weren't on glue, |
|
when they got a good grade on their paper |
|
I would tell em see you later, |
|
lasers shooting out the glasses of my cyclops |
|
Never cry, they're just traces from my eyedrops |
|
I wanna be everything that you wanted |
|
Straight A student I'm sorry I never done it |
|
but the grades never meant anything real to me |
|
just a part of me reaching out with L.O.V.E |
|
but i fall short of this, the language we speak |
|
can we speak a different language, |
|
Cambridge, Top of Columbia Stanford just a couple dialects |
|
but i'm feelin tired yes, taking all these side tests |
|
can we take a rest and have a conversation |
|
i just want to tell you everything i'm facing |
|
you wanna consume it, wanted to know me |
|
said you went through me, won't you undo me |
|
and i wanna know know know know know |
|
wanna know know know know know |
|
i wanna get to you, wanted to know you |
|
instead i went right through, what am i to do |
|
cuz i wanna know know know know know |
|
wanna know know know know know |
|
cuz i never really wanted to go, i just wind up somehow losing control |
|
would you come back baby tell me once more |
|
i'm sorry i was missing but i wanted to know |
|
i never dreamed it'd be hard to be seen as a preteen you would work harder than machines |
|
and it isn't what it seems, cuz i know it's out of love |
|
but i'm feelin kinda lost, and the distance is enough |
|
for me to style, for me to write, |
|
for me to tell you that i'm missing you at night |
|
and the moments that i have, and the way i raise my children |
|
will be everything i learned staring at a television |
|
i just wanna play catch, throw a long ball |
|
have a father figure to teach me to love god |
|
and a mom that would hold me when everything seems wrong |
|
god i'm barely five foot and taking it all alone |
|
but it's cool, i understand |
|
i'm just sharing, not to offer you demands, i would help you if i can if you smiled a little bit |
|
every time we take a picture i would save it as a kid |
|
and i'm tired of the acting, gashing, |
|
there's a problem that is happening, blastin |
|
and i wanna fix this so this is my one shot |
|
mama papa love you i miss you a whole lot |
|
you wanna consume it, wanted to know me |
|
instead you went through me, would you undo me |
|
and i wanna know know know know know |
|
wanna know know know know know |
|
i wanna get to you, wanted to know you |
|
instead i went right through, what am i to do |
|
cuz i wanna know know know know know |
|
wanna know know know know know |
|
you wanna get to me, wanted to know me |
|
instead you went through me, would you undo me |
|
and i wanna know know know know know |
|
wanna know know know know know |
|
i wanna get to you, wanted to know you |
|
instead i went right through, what am i to do |
|
cuz i wanna know know know know know... |
