I claim to be a man of faith, I told her from the start |
[00:25.90] |
a shame to say she has my heart and still I won't depart |
[00:28.74] |
my art, it got me 'tween a rock and a brick wall |
[00:31.49] |
and my journey to her's feelin like a game of Pitfall |
[00:34.53] |
and all she wanna do is study english, law and history |
[00:37.30] |
and I'm a mystery, a life with me's like a gypsy |
[00:40.10] |
|
[00:42.20] |
cause the South is in my chest, and I don't wanna fly it's nest |
[00:45.23] |
Lord, I'm young, gifted and black |
[00:47.66] |
thanks for that, but help me sift through the facts, please |
[00:51.05] |
with her on my team I'm feelin like a King |
[00:53.33] |
findin' comfort in her Heat and we just want a couple rings |
[00:56.07] |
but the thing? the throne's in my old Kentucky home and |
[00:59.04] |
it need me more than us, I can feel it in our tone |
[01:01.57] |
we ain't ready for the leap, maybe one day we'll be grown |
[01:04.37] |
and step outside our comfort zone |
[01:06.75] |
If you do, spread your wings please let me know |
[01:10.60] |
take me with you when you go |
[01:13.62] |
You can't leave me here alone |
[01:17.59] |

[01:21.72] |

[01:24.75] |

[01:29.46] |
You the apple of my eye before the seed was planted |
[01:32.67] |
Proceed to vanish before I could even see the damage |
[01:35.23] |
Beneath a sea of Zanax |
[01:36.70] |
She provide the X, I provide the Y |
[01:38.83] |
But why did she concede to panic? |
[01:40.55] |
The plea that she demanded |
[01:42.11] |
To her it seemed so even-handed |
[01:43.75] |
I seen no advantage and so I'm screamin damnit |
[01:46.13] |
Wish you could see Atlanta |
[01:47.58] |
Wish you could see your Nana |
[01:48.79] |
Wish you could see that I believed that we should be together |
[01:51.75] |
But I did not protect you |
[01:53.11] |
Cus I did not correct her |
[01:54.54] |
I learned a lesson that I guess I didn't earn your presence |
[01:57.43] |
Concern was ever-present |
[01:58.63] |
If I could turn back the hands of time I'd return to find her on the 11th |
[02:02.80] |
The day she seen the premise |
[02:04.05] |
That if she left the clinic premises without your essence |
[02:06.72] |
She'd relieve her stresses |
[02:08.07] |
See we agreed that it's a woman's preference |
[02:10.37] |
But if she loved me she'd have second-guessed it |
[02:12.40] |
And now I keep sayin |
[02:12.94] |
If you do, spread your wings please let me know |
[02:17.08] |
