[Intro: Christon Gray]
Roses
Right, Right
Thank you Jesus
Right, Right
[Verse 1]
Yo
Here I am half awake late it's like, 4 a.m lot of thoughts caged in
I'm praying that my pen plays its position in the playpen of my heart and minds endless decisions
The name of my prison I've been sittin' in is unknown
Brother's busted son is a s**a' for love
'Love Jones'
Listen to the tale as I tell you of two being weighed on my scale
Listen
I'm mister middle man with little understanding of how to manage a companion
During this specific time
Not in my prime in Christian living
So why am I giving all my time to these women?
[Verse 2]
Well for a minute to us uno in my pupil
But nowadays, Chris is seeing double vision
One eye closed, the other is wide open
Find broken promises that I made to me and her
Sweet dreams baby girl, it seems the dreams avert
Put the dream on hold, it seems there's still some things to learn
A churn in tummy made a funny bone turn
To a frown looking down with eyebrows of concern
She's still holding every real moment
We ever had, it made her sad
Automatically seeming like a dream down the drain
To change the dreams I help her have
It's like a nightmare in her brain
And I'm scared that I might scare her away
Well, let me explain
I'm going through some things
Uh, I'm going through some things
[Verse 3]
So in the mean; I wonder why it's me
I've never been between
Two loving hearts for
C-H-R-I-S-T-O-N
Never knew, no, no!
That I could meet someone after I fell in love
Maybe I'm
Trying to hold on
Hold on
Let me go back
Back to the beginning, let me slide back the blinds cuz ya
Ya got to see the climax inside
Leaving her house; I ride back in silence
It's 2:20 a.m
New music playing
The old one fading but the new one faze in
And as my world turns, instead he's asking is this Magic or Mayhem?
Magic or Mayhem?
Magic or Mayhem?....
[Verse 4]
Yo, I couldn't even guess
Cuz, wow! This new pretty got my eyes undress
The whole time I wonder what I just left
See, I thought that we were in love
But all our memories-pain
The whole pickin' 9 cents
Yeah
I framed a whole different mindset
Cuz then there was us
With no I.D
And then I found lust; the more I see
All the while, it was just insecure I-T
All the while, it was just insecure I-T
[Outro: Christon Gray]
Man. I'm so sorry I did that to you. I'm still learning...
