Grown Folk Groove

I know you like
I might know that cat there
I think I rock with that dude
Did you grow up on hip-hop?
And are you still in that mood?
But on your grown folk movements
Dancing to grown folk grooves
But still wanting that boom bap
poetically abstract Kaboom
Like guess who stepped in the room
Hey now Please allow me
To reintroduce myself
In the ways of an ol' school flav
But current day
Like 50 the new 30
Come clean when Iye get dirty
My worthy is Jimmy like
Ricky with the hickey on it
A rainbowed shaft
Minus the re-appropriative
Component I'm on it
Like I'm big poppa
Fixin to experience
Orgasms on every chakra
And you're welcome to come along
Get to nuttin' up on these songs
In ways a virgin could marry
And palm these psalms
And while she tonguing that scripture
Allow me to strip your
Funky emotes outside of the virtual
Flirt with hurt until
It's simply another color up in the spectrum
Respect due when casting through that reflection
And burned rubber like I peeled off protection
Erect man after erect sun
After erection
Mind how we flexin'
I know you like
I might know that cat there
I think I rock with that dude
Did you grow up on hip-hop?
And are you still in that mood?
But on your grown folk movements
Dancing to grown folk grooves
But still wanting that boom bap
poetically abstract Kaboom
Like guess who stepped in the room
Zoom zoom in'na pum periodic
Methodic in seeking logic
In energy misdirection talk about it
Star blazin' with the cannon
One shot can take a lot up out 'em
Careful where you point that
Point blank ain't no blanksPoint
Whatever splat gets all of that
It takes a long time to get it back
Mind you when depleted
You're at your weakest
Waste not want less
Like minimalist
If it's a shot to the chest
Then I'm shooting the gift
A leaky heart aint the mark
Of a Godly visit
Although for some fathers it is
God blessed the kids
Tossed out with the bath water
Some didn't wanna
Some had to do what they
Thought they ought to
Collected scars off rip
From how that work was whipped
Cool drip on your nip
Get a grip or take sip
Rat racing tail chasing
'Til I fall out
(Watch me)
Come hard Put her to bed
Then call out
Oooooooh

Yo...
A one-two, one-two and
Iye say, party people
Your dreams have now been fulfilled
Get out'cha seats and let's get ill
That's right yall were not just rough
We're mostly tough and when it
Comes to rhymes... We got
Nothing up my sleeve
except arm tats of emotion
Henna-like erase
replace, pray no retrace
Just a chase toward next chapter
As page after page stack up
Kept a journal so the world could learn you
When it should be so the world can know you
Give first what you think they owe you
So I'll lead with love
What you exhale man breathe it up
Don't get me sick, my nega-
Or at least attempt. These Ital foods
Give me some strength, my nega
And Iye can tell when sleeper cells
try infiltrate my figure
6 feet, the space, my nega
Not talking ID's, but ID erased, my nega
And you can read between right now
What's in your face, my brother
Look left... look right... they outta sight
Now in your space, my bother
How to recover if the village
Do not got you covered?
Blueprints abundant
Better catch these elders while they're still surfaced
Or learn how to summon
That which has to be learned from them
There's a war going on outside
They wasn't frontin'
A one-two, one-two and..
Iye say, party people
Your dreams have now been fulfilled
Get out'cha seats and let's get ill
That's right yall were not just rough
We're mostly tough and when it
Comes to rhymes... We got
Plenty reason to be here
So I'm'ma set it off
Every morn like a premier
And if you catch a cloth
pray to God it's a clean tear
'Cause ripping me off
Cause for stitch-up. Iye declare.
Been at it for years
Not your hobby it's just
Something I also do
'Longside a plethora of chambers
I like running thru
Like the one in between your boo
Newest def of phuk'n wit'chu
Watch your step on that Willy Smith
Set us back... you get Willie lynched
So {brrr} hang it on the wall
Tag it on a stall. Really what do it mean
When you ain't living out what you seen
In them jovial visions of futurism
Wedged between Celestial seems
Or would you rather Iye said stream of dreams
Regardless of any colloquialisms
Provoke and get bizm
Otherwise, we're just joking with living
A scope and a vision... a trigger & pull
A good squeeze'll pop the eye of a bull
I'm shittin you, not.
Hitting that spot's a G thang
G'won make her g-string sing... Pull!
Get up!
Get up!
Get up!
Get up!
Get up!
Everybody... Get up!
Young Kings & Queens... Get up!
Baba beings... Get up!
My people... Get up!
Everybody... get up!
A' my... a' my... get up!
Yo...
A one-two, one-two and..
Iye say, party people
Your dreams have now been fulfilled
Get out'cha seats and let's get ill
That's right yall were not just rough
We're mostly tough and when it
Comes to rhymes... (aye yo... ya, ya, ya... aye yo)
We got

There comes a time when no
Method of diplomacy prevails
Oh shh
Aye yo, let's ride this out
Yeah, you can slide or ride this out
But we ain't gon' hide nor gon' cry this out
Some things just can't be denied. That's out
And what's pride when all that shit's for show?
Rather step with my dignity than ego
That being said time to reclaim that throne
'Bout to dropped more shit than prune nega-s that's prone
Can watch it bounce from there
Or dive in, hands dirt pull your share
Or fall back, get smacked, plus pulled hair
Quick to Dread when the man of flow would suggest
That you're up to some nastiness, yes
I see you're up to some nastiness, yes
I see you're up to some nastiness, yes
Up to some nastiness… oh?
How we walking this out?
It's evident we're past talking it out
Steadfast in your motion toward brick
A simple life-death
We'll see who ain't having it
Hear the talk, left to right
Felt the hawk front to back
In the attack, we cover all gaps
Load a clip of distract and cock back
Wait for it… Brrraaappppi
When that back hit the matt t'was a smack
From a foot sweep sweet in delivery
Deep within chivalry
Like if there's rules to this
A forced hand, death blows like the glove fit
Whole fist in esophagus type shit
Barbaric with the rap
Th'phuk you looking at?
Th'phuk you cooking, black?
Literal pivotal is this situation right here
Fear not the bear nor the bull
We're addressing elephants
Smack fly off the wall too
All participants
If it's time to blow horn... final song?
Phuk it, we all gone dance
Stone thrown out for romance
Violent when it change hands
Talkin' bout who gon' catch it?
Or who gon' withstand?
Watch your mouth. They gon' test it
Until the taste bland
Melanin, more flav than you can ever imagine
Sensory overload. Over lord over God?
Overreach barely breached
You'll still draw back a nub I ain't playing
You can bullshit with rap if you want
This ain't a game. Buckle up
I'm 'bout to ride this out
Yeah, you can slide or can ride this out
But one thing, we're not gon' hide nor cry this out
Some things just can't be denied. That's that's out
And what's pride when all that shit's for show
Rather step with my dignity than ego
That being said time to come off that throne
Yall done dropped more shit than prune bitches that's prone
Can watch it bounce from there
Or dive in, hands dirt pull your share
Or fall back, ass smacked, plus pulled hair
Quick to Dread when the man of flow would suggest
That you're up to some nastiness, yes
I see you're up to some nastiness, yes
I see you're up to some nastiness, yes
See you're to some nastiness Oh shit
Yeh yeh yeh yah yo… ee yeh
Yah yeh yeh yeh yo
Yah yeh yeh yeh yo
Aiight let me see let me see
C'mon let's goi
There comes a time when no
method of diplomacy prevails
That's when (forward) you realize (onward)the tide
has (move) shifted (out) to a wave of control
(I will go over or through, but...) Control of your energy
(we will not be moved) Control of your soul
(Listen...) No, (if it gotta go down) no
(Then it gotta go th'phuk down) no
(Right now) noi
Commitment shifts with each pass of threshold
Cannot turn back now suggest you best grab hold
Ain't gon' be no more "yours" when it comes to mine
Wheel it up Negus bring it back come rewind
Can watch it bounce from there
Or dive in, hands dirt pull your share
Or fall back, ass smacked, plus pulled hair
Quick to Dread when the man of flow would suggest
That you up to some nastiness, yes
I see you're up to some nastiness, yes
I see you're up to some nastiness, yes
You're up to some nastiness
Oh shit
Commitment shifts with each pass of threshold
Cannot turn back now suggest you best grab hold
Ain't gon' be no more "your" when it comes to mine
Mash it up, Negus get the strap come forwardi
I'm all in
Out
Oh shit

For every tic that gets talked down
And all that talk that tic back up
Let me tell you all this now
Ain't nothing to be scared of
Akashic finds from within us
Time to let all that glows inside, out now
Listen, if you here, you here
So give it up
Plus everything you got to spare
Look, I spent a good time wondering
What it's all about...
Then I had a conversation with my man
He said P, we're never dead...
I told him, "true...", but he proceeded
How we entered this dimension's through birth
Carnation's, rein-... some would say ruined
I am viewing these human beings
Including me in reflection
Getting vexed at what I'm seeing
Not really the physical
Though I can do without this belly
Really it's a level of happy needing achieving
Got me regulating my breathing through meditation
Although I can't quite seem to get there
Without assistance so I roll one
Get-up-and-get my stroll on
This aint no mother fucking
group therapy session
This life lesson is a solo course
Worth one credit. Use the force
And the world starts to applaud
Refer to you as a boss
When all you did was pay the source
Some attent-ions
While they paid attention to you
Dent different if as a stu-
But you, they're boob tube viewing
Facebook and YouTube'n
Atrophying the mind
Because the mental aint moving
Calcifying the penial due to usage that's menial
Turning backs on your genial.
Ungodliest ruins...
But what's being pursued, man?
Accolades while the shackles remain?
Or them tools you could use to
Hop, skip, and jump on these planes?
I'm just saying
For every tic that gets talked down
And all that talk that tic back up
Let me tell you all this now
Ain't nothing to be scared of
Akashic finds from within us
Time to let all that glow inside, out now
Listen, if you here, you here
So give it up...
Plus everything you got to spare
Leave it all on the floor... heard that saying before
But what is rarely overstood is that behavior is taught
We're so tied to emotions in the things we do
It's what fuels the passion and drives the follow through
Think I'm nice with it? Probably do it more than you
Everybodys a star. Its your responsibility to find yours
And when you peep it, don't sleep
Peop's gone need blinders
Still light the block up anyway
That's a spark that segways
Into your community
Bright, the mind when demonstrating
Soul glow illuminating the roads
And it shows through every vessel
that dares to embrace it...
Face it. We placed here for no other purpose
Than to be we to the fullest
Liberating like a good stretch
Or a bust nut after good sex
Flex... Cobra yoga with a swollen neck
All hands on deck... Snake charmer
Had 400 years to straight dom' ya
What a mutha'phuk'n fluke?
It's time to take that flute from 'em
What sang songs of survival
Turned victories bellow
Hello... bass in your face
Is like a framed pic of cellos
Ring the alarm
Let's cut the noose off the necks of who they're stringing along
And put the hue back in man
It's like I'm addicted to flaws
And remixing them until they become awes
Mutha'phukas
For every tic that gets talked down
And all that talk that tic back up
Let me tell you all this now
Ain't nothing to be scared of
Akashic finds from within us
Time to let all that glow inside out now
Listen, if you here, you here
So give it up
Plus everything you got to spare
Sometimes you gotta slow mo' the flash to catch the shine
Give it space on the ledger of life
Unchained block documented in time
Let it shine... let you shine
Leave something behind, today for tomorrow
And be great about it.

Mmmm
Yeah
I like that... uh, Let's go
Don't think I blame you for it
I do but I can't blame you for it... Yup
You don't know the depths of your hook-line sinker
Think a brother's gonna keep overlooking
Shooken by a desire gone wrong
Wild for the Night like that's my song
Since the day you picked me up
I knew my heart was gone
Now I'm back
You got a problem
Yo... Yo as the splash hit my left pant leg
I glanced up and before I let out a hey
Brake lights illuminate
Out steps this figure eight
Who'd calculate to a dime in most minds
Tryna define her current state
Apologetic she said it like
Can I dry that? Taken aback
Was the kid on some, uh um sure
Not seen, was the lure
Just slid to the passenger door
Got in... looked up... caught a grin
How she darted in and out of traffic
Showed she was dominant
Like what you don't know
From Trina and Trick Daddy
And I thought I was fresh
But ol' girl was a professional
Like a mother-to-child innate
And here I am quick with the bait
Before I knew it, dates was on some I do
Comma vous comma rendez
Any time and any place
And only if she'd say
Yes muy grande
I'll admit was my boops status, but
Don't think I blame you for it
I do but I can't blame you for it... Yup
You don't know the depths of your hook-line sinker
Think a brother's gonna keep overlooking
Shooken by a desire gone wrong
Wild for the Night like that's my song
Since the day picked me up
I knew my heart was gone
Now I'm back
You got a problem
Had me open
Pussy had me wide open meow
Gotta change the stats and hit the door on some be out
But Crack screams loudly
Asked them heads on the corner
Better yet ask them vets who give
Head on the corner
And I'm lassoed
A shunned feeling leads me to explore
Somewhere I had thoughts, deep-rooted
'Bout some pussy galore
Which leads me right back to your front door
With the ravenous knock
Miss Little Piggy, open up
Before I tear down your spot
Don't make me huff
We could puff and blow it all down
Go a few rounds
I'll hit it like old folks to the lotto
Who's on the verge of croaking and like giving it back
Speaking of backs. I'm that again
Let me in
Remember how your back bent when you let me in
You hit a pitch so soft it had my heart opening
T'was since then I have been trying to let it mend with no luck
And on some "what the..." all you gave was an uh
Don't think I blame you for it
I do but I can't blame you for it... Yup
You don't know the depths of your hook-line sinker
Think a brother's gonna keep overlooking
Shooken by a desire gone wrong
Wild for the Night like that's my song
Since the day picked me up
I knew my heart was gone
Now I'm back
You got a problem
Yo... Yo let me tell you how it goes from here
You want it or what?
Scared to drop your guard
Scared to thank God
My lord if you could just touch her
Show her how nice the puzzle fits
Let her bask in the shower
Guarantee no more loose hearts will she devour
After feeling the power of our
So much so, watch you gloat
When you boast with a toast to nosotros
But first, you gotta let me play host, and you hostess
No ho stress focus
That's how you get more with less
Yes, an indecent proposal to a showgirl
Before you met me, tell me, did you really know "world"
Or just familiar with a fraction
I'm just asking
I know it's your life, your rules, but my attraction
And not a bag of mouth I want action
You know it's time, time for some
You got a problem baby
I don't know what it is
And I am right here
I don't know what'chu doing
Yeah it's that cold-blooded shit right there
(Heh heh)That problem solver... yeah
Let's get it together... come on
Don't think I blame you for it
I do but I can't blame you for it
You don't know the depths of your hook-line sinker
Think a nega- just gonna keep overlooking
Shooken by a desire gone wrong
Wild for the Night like if that's my song
From the day you picked me up
I knew my heart was gone
Now I'm back
You got a problem
Yo Ev bring that back yo
Don't think I blame you for it
I do but I can't blame you for it... Yup
You don't know the depths of your hook-line sinker
Think a brother's gonna keep overlooking... okay
Shooken by a desire gone wrong... no way
Wild for the Night like that's my song
Since the day picked me up
I knew my heart was gone
Now I'm back
You got a problem
Feel that shit... heh heh... heh heh

That noise
Never ever let 'em steal your Kingship
To the table always bring shit
Even if just intellect
Especially intellect... if you have value, apply it
The God to which the Gods have already assigned it
D-evil you may feel is only felt when you deny it
Oh yes that bitter taste of emotions embrace
But you're gonna eat that faster than gnats on a jog
But when it's all said and done we jog from that experience
If you're a leader then lead
If you're a worker bee then work it B-I-G
Nothing you do is of insignificancy
Truth won't allow it. Ain't no tappin' without it
Always know your worth and maintain balance
The ebb and flow of your exposed talents
And who shall control will be the challenge
Or maybe not if you're made in that image
Lawd can I break shit down?
Break it down to the top
Wait a minute
Good lawd, can I break shit down
Break it up... (come on) break it up ... (come on)break it up
Break it down to the top
Fuckin' with it... Good Lawd
Never ever let 'em steal your Kingship
Never ever, you, let him siphon your Godliness
Never ever let them snatch your crown
Make sure your points remain sharp
When darts or jewels are passed down
The magic they're seeking, isn't it obvious
That blessed are those who are privileged to witness
When I break shit down
Come on... come on... come on... come on... come on
Break it down to the top
Wait a minute
Good lawd, can I break shit down
Come on... come on... come on... come on... come on
(Come on) break it down (come on) to the top
You fuckin' with it
Never ever let him steal your Kingship
Even with that Goddess well deserving of her Queenship
See boops... see boops deh... gets you nowhere
Might be the catalyst but it's how you stand on your square
Unu better own that box when boxing box down
Sing songs of freedom but with a brand new sound
On some, get up... get in... and get out
As above so below or so we work it, no doubt
Enjoy the ride and slide
The knight left with the joust
You don't say
Sheath that and keep your stride
For any ditch, I'm diggin' out
Never ever let 'em steal your Kingship
Never ever, you, let him siphon your Godliness, huh
Never ever let them snatch your crown
Make sure your points remain sharp
When darts or jewels are passed down
The magic they're seeking, isn't it obvious
That blessed are those who are privileged to witness
When I break shit down
Come on... come on... come on... come on... come on
(Come on) break it down (come on) to the top
Wait a minute
Good lawd, can I break shit down
(Come on) break it up... (come on) break it up... (come on) break it up
(Come on) break it down (come on) to the top
Fuckin' with it

You know how I get it in
Angry with the happiness
Hard like a gentleman
Smooth with the roughness
So poor when I'm righteous
Opposite of norm, call me Ab
Split a six pack in back of the cab
Sort of like were sight seeing
No destination really, we're just being
Not really dreaming of ways to put it on you
But cabby pull up there at the corner
I sling jokes and you chuckle
Plus an occasional "phuk you"
Balanced when we argue
I can dig it
Got your back when you argue. It's a team effort
Got my back when I argue. Challenge the method
Defining my cypher, commit like a lifer
I ain't willfully kicking shit in
Til we are just one
Very skillfully how I get it in
Freeing the dumb
And thanking God for what we've become
I can be the one for you
Love you like you've never been the goddeness that are
You dont think I care... I do
I see right through all of your imaginary flaws
Oh girl...
It's the type of shit I'll make you do with me
It's that shit you rock when it's just you and me
When we be all alone, see you're a fool for me
Musical jewelery
On God...
It's that type of shit I'll make you do for me
It's that shit you rock when it's just you and me
When we be all alone see you're a fool for me
Musical jewelery
Yo, at your momma's house
up in the deck wet from the sweat
What she yap about
We're seeing it right here
Same place where the tears shed
She fed with the boredom
Rather grip the board and
Bite lip. Praise the lord and
Tell me grab her hair and
Sling it from the rear and
Flick it at an angle
Make her grab her ankles
Cha cha to the tango
Ta ta... pretty nipples
One touch a thousand awe shucks
Lost in the role-play
Let the words stroke ye
The verb on some poke me
Your nerve on some hooray
Pat on the booty
In hi-def or blue ray
We're living it right now
Getting on that get right
What'chu doing tonight?
What'chu doing despite
Might regrettin' the ramp
If so, pump your brake, eh
Canada can wait
Fall like Niagra
Stiff like... the rigor
I ain't that old yet
Oh, girl
It's the type of shit I'll make you do with me
It's that shit you rock when it's just you and me
When we be all alone, see you're a fool for me
Musical jewelery
On God
It's that type of shit I'll make you do for me
It's that shit you rock when it's just you and me
When we be all alone see you're a fool for me
Musical jewelery
Oh, girl...
It's the type of shit I'll make you do with me
It's that shit you rock when it's just you and me
When we be all alone, see you're a fool for me
Musical jewelery
On God...
It's that type of shit I'll make you do for me
It's that shit you rock when it's just you and me
When we be all alone see you're a fool for me

"Yo, what's up man?"
"Aye, man. What's going on?"
Not too much man... you sittin' down, bro?"
"Yo, what's good, man?"
I knew I wasn't gonna like it when it came.
On such cloudy days who need pray for rain?
Soaked from eyes down, watering my frown
Dry tears stain an opened chest
I get heated as my heart pounds
Yeah, I know... What selfishness?
How dare I regret a loss?
When I was blessed just to even have a cause
Something I found holding me down
When the seasons approach
Whether coat or the coach
It's warm to the touch. Got love for me much
Reciprocate sorts...
These mutual moments, we treasure them
Droppings from Jewel to Jem
The iron in Fè
It in-Irvienne'd in men
Sew it different with a seamless blend
We no kin teeth cause kin better than friend
Sacrificed pain in begged innings
Built strength to ward ends
But do it do it tho?
Tell me, how much?
Tell me, why... what?
Tell me, how clutch?
Tell me, Fuck Fuck Fuck!!!
How much do it do it tho?
No man can possibly
Be fully prepared
And... bullied, be the scared
And... fear, forever, be present
So why not present fear
With a firm fuck you?
Is it cause you know it be fucking back?
Not fair when it be fucking first
Fucking you, and you're like, fuck that!
Yeah, I know where you at, but it is a lose-lose...
Bee Bee King of the slop... Fat boy blues clues
Pick at it, not! Boy, I am telling you
Finish your food. Cultivating crops
Need nourishment, recyclable.
And that is to... reincarnate
The ionically chargeable
Cause it's within that you charge the bull
To bare witness (to the unbearable)
And bare it in full... interest-free
Though it may feel uncomfortable
Uncomfortably, be free...
Comfortably being thee...
Being you... being he, being she, being me.
Strength to fuel the next-gen...
Undoubtedly... unconditionally
Planted, be the seeds... continue to breathe
The dispense of breath,
Same time the inhalant of fresh where, what is sustained...
is a mint condition...
But do it do it tho?
Tell me, how much?
Tell me, why... what?
Tell me, how clutch?
Tell me, Fuck Fuck Fuck!!!
How much do it do it tho?
No man can possibly
Be fully prepared
And... bullied, be the scared
And... fear, forever, be present
So why not present fear
With a firm fuck you?
Is it 'cause you know it'll fuck you worst
Yeah, when fuck don't give a fuck
Especially when you it's fucking up
Knots up in guts can blind you...
Bind you to stuck. Tieing you down.
But what's in the find if not the foundation
Where emotional placement
Makes a big enough statement
And it aches men through pain on the pavement
Or pain on a bedroom floor
Lord, make it end soon
Thru clear quartz of crystals help me flip the...
"What?" Energy in the rooms
Turning it from gloom to bloom
Or make it digestible so we can move forward...
(Ow) I wanna move forward
When you can't take it back
Take it Forward...
When you're facing that black
Take it forward...
Ain't no looking back to the light. Forward.
Take it forward
I gotta move forward
It's hard to move forward
I need to move forward
Why can't I move forward?
I got to move forward
When you cant take it back
Take it forward
When you're facing that black
Take it forward...
Ain't no looking back to the light. Forward.
Take it forward...
Be sure to call on you.

One for the treble, two for the Iye
Double El Lion Pat Dash to the mutha'phuk'n
Rickerrr. Shit off the Richter
Stick ya... like, "... 'em up, hands high!"
Or gun finger point mapped outlined gentrified
Intensified, the subtle takeover
Makeover... shake over... bake over
Stovetop, show stop, roadblock
Who still sells that?
Unu... better pivot. Right foot then left
Forward the step. The choices
How you calculate them the best? With poise, kid
Or so you think through the squeeze
Think a nega- ain't keen on that pressure
That force could very well burst through the pipes
Or it could reroute to exhaust
Blast the phuk off. The buck off the start gate
Already made a nega- hurry up and wait
Slick in the city fluted the many 'til lulabied
And muffled, was the cocks doodle doo, dribble and stool
Til made the fool, no more.
Unfortunately, t'was by force
At least to me that is how this story is told
When moving like water you sure to adapt to the bowl
Or slice Dartañyon, the Grand Canyon
Move... yeah yeah to the K.I.M.
Go away! Go away! Come again
Go away! Come again
Move... yeah yeah to the K.I.M.
G'won, g'won g'way
No mek mi affi say it again
Go that a way
At-a-boy... Ade Mae eat the cake
Beat the cake. No vaseline. We ain't mates
This ain't date. Phuk a rape
Yo, you lucky to escape on your stakes
Get to skakin' money. Scrapin' money
For whom the bell tolls, forced some to sell their souls
The more feet, the bare. The stare, ice grills
If looks could kill
Laid to bed... Murphy stance
"Stop pushing me man..."
I'm going until I come back
And when I do, mind it don't be the nape
On some pearl necklace lest I aim for the gape
In your face like its bait. No debate
The move

Night cries of a siren eyes widen its around two-and-a-half
Alongside my better half soundly deep breathing
A whisper in her ear enhances the dreaming. "I'm leaving"
Later on, she would swear she heard death screaming
Early on we're at the table eating
Where dinner talk turned to killer squawks
An amplified bark frightens the children
Right now I couldn't tell you what about
All I know is that it's unsettling
And time will tell how the youth's affected
Gunnin' at each other until we tire from the utter
Damn it, my throat is sore plus I feel a headache coming
Along with the wee hours, so I yes her til satisfaction then crash
Now, I'm up… disgusted with her yet wanting some ass
You know what? This pool of lust... I'm about to make a splash
And wet something. Grabbed my keys, breeze
Now I'm at a spot speaking easy
And throwing them back. My over do it stats
Chat had Miss loving every minute
We're about to bounce… get up in it
(She got me) driving like, "Man
She don't know how much I'm gon' bend it"
Then out of nowhere, them two lights appeared
Flash... Not quick. Got hit. Suddenly it phuk'n ended
(Gasp) Night cries of a siren. Eyes widen. It's around two and a half
Why put up with it?" Did he have to ask?
Thinking it's copasetic 'cause he can provide the cash
When certain tasks cost not more than attention
Paying no mind can simply lead to a void that's gon need filling
Needing to get away, what if she left him and the children?
I can't take this! Now she's outside of the building
Tunnel vision blurred by open space
She's at a place where those smooth grooves make her saddened
And like being capsized with a gash in the ocean
You know the sharks are coming
Look, there goes one right on cue
He smelled the blood from only a few
Distressed damsel baited by an ear and a smile
He yes'd her 'til she felt comfortable
"He sees what I'm saying…"
Now going for the kill, he asked her to dance
"It'll take your mind off him"
Funny how when the mouth stops, the body keeps talking
Language they spoke had a rhythm all of its own
He was romancing the stone in hopes she'll expose
Then he could steal her diamond in the rough
But something said, "Enough! I can't…"
"Wait… let me walk you to your car"
She said okay but as soon as they hit the alleyway
He forcefully (No!) snatched her jewel of the Nile, with her, he had his way
What a twist of fate?
Raped, stabbed, beaten and bleeding
How can someone not hear the screaming?
Night cries of a siren. Eyes widen... it's around two-and-a-half
Alongside my better half soundly deep breathing
A whisper in her ear enhances the dreaming
I'm sorry for not thinking of your feelings
It's just that at the plantation having a shit of a day when
Mr. Charlie stabbed out, but not before leaving more mandates
Then I come home to all these envelopes saying it's time to pay
Cliché had me pretending like I'm crime or something
Honestly, your man felt like crying and thumping
Stroking her shoulder, I went on about how I'm honored to know her
How much I really love her and how I wanted to show her
Just then the snore lightens to a slight whimper
Baby, you up? She rolled over and put her two fingers
To my lips… we start engaging in passionates
Couldn't imagine it lasting as long as it did... was dawn when it hit
What? My last line of gentleness
It came at the peak in the form of release
Now, I've heard of crimes of passion, but
I never really felt the need for the "Love" police until my heart
Arrested on some cardiac. Baby got black widowed
And though feelings of absent middles, she lacks little
For now, been a single parent for nine months, and knowing me
Them other two had the opportunity. This newborn felt me in theory
So peacefully is now, the move on because of a bond Godly
Feel the warmth in his smile… That's just a reflection of me
