Are you heaven? Are you real?
Are you the feelings that I fear that I feel?
When I’m copping a feel on my heart I’m just afraid of the dark.
Down at the pier, our relation ship’s appeared to embark.
I met you when you were just so insecure.
You didn’t know how to speak or hold onto your word.
You’d always ask a fella to have to tell you
if you were acting ridiculous. Nah, let’s just forget this shit.
So I tell the former version of myself
to keep an eye of Sauron on those little white elves.
Cause people look evil when those people isn’t you.
You mistook every action that they do as not true.
Is it you that’s the problem? Is that me that is robbing
us of the opportunity for some peace and unity?
To pop your balloon, I really gotta go soon
so stop your monsoon or bye boo, salut.
I try to outrun my feelings when I get on a track
but the outcome’s me dealing with the sweat on my back
and there’s the shit on my plate and all the shit that I ate.
I’m named a sidekick. I’m not supposed to wear the cape.
“Not bad, man but you don’t have Batman powers”
but I’m the bad man who likes to spit a written so sour.
Now I’m squeezing the clouds trying to defeat the drought.
My life fell apart and here’s the how.
Got lost in your river and I’ve gone missing
like you’re going fishing and I’m going swimming.
Are you heaven? For me you opened up your gates.
All seven. I see I’m closer to number eight.
And I’m sending a message to sever forever.
Deliver the cypher, decipher my message
and digest my pregnant pauses.
My heart is pregnant and my flow’s going for broke water.
