[Intro]
Authentic Intelligence on the track
The Hopeless Romantic
[Verse]
I'm all alone with no one beside me
High key in need of distractions
To stop my mind from twisting and compacting
Several situations in which I die alone
Like Al Capone in his last scene, wish I seen't that
You got me fiendin' for that
Like you my druggie, please hug me
And tell me it'll be okay
Wake me at the break of day
Next to me in my bed
Lay your head on my chest
Lemme carefully caress
The crevices of your silk mind
Smoother than jazz chords
Mixed with cheesy pick-up lines
You blow up my mind
Like you sweeping through some mines
Not sure how to play
But we always careful and take our time
Take my time as if its currency
Because time with you is well-spent
See I'm hell bent on making you mine
Even if that means I'm at the back of the line
As long as I'm not in the back of your mind
And when I get up front
I won't front nor will I play
Cause I've been waiting for the nine-Tays
Watching Dwayne slay Will and Jay
And my main man Carlton, Sway
Nah, I'm here cause I wanna put your troubles away
Put them in this treasure chest and place it
In the basement floor of the sea of forgetfulness
I hope the way I finesse these words
Can be interpreted as more than you hear
But more that you feel like the way your layers
And peel back, peel back, peel back
See that's real, that's what I want
And I'm here to tease or to taunt
Just show you the thoughts that haunt
This lonely romantic whose antics
Are very often get taken for granted
So he sits back and sips that tea ever so slanted
Waiting for someone to fall for his enchanted
Slow, 10 degrees below chill, flow
Now if you fall underneath the sound of my voice
Let's go, let's go, let's go
