[verse]
From the pedestal to my lap, yea I took it there
Hi top fade, gave up the waves, now they look and stare
Verily, Verily I say, let us flow let us pray
Iceberg, Romaine, eye'ing the Lion on my ring
Every night I used to wonder if I had my Dad features
Now I'm looking at these girls like they all swag leeches
Laying with my muse in a bed full of blues
I was up above the water now I'm deeper in the ewww
Where clouds never rain, and summer never falls
All we do is play, "hey whats that game called?"
She said "oh you think you smooth"
I said "what you think I'm not?"
She said "I can't" and then she blushed
Thinking I'ma jerk and its driving her bizerk
Wanna tell me that she love me but she asking hows work
Got a condo in the burbs so I'm heading back to jerz
She said call me when you reach just to stay inside my world
How many other girls, I never said a word
How many other girls but I never said a word
Cuz even as boy I knew the Lord had a plan
Grams never let me sleep without that sword in my hand
In the middle of the drought I was building me a ark
Now I let them doves fly and they bringing me the art
40 days 40 nights, this is how it starts
Told her bout that pot o gold she said babe I know you right
What a night I was whylin
Threw a couple back I knew I shouldn't be driving
Pulled up out the telly, blue and red no sirens
Me behind bars? nah Mars man you lying
Couldn't bring me down cuz the boy too buoyant
If it be any clearer I would be clairvoyant
My dude feeling like Doughboy when Rickey died
This is real life, and I am Tre Styles
The phone ring its an automated message
Still paying for my freedom but I ain't gon' stress it
Graduated thought I made it, medicated then it faded
Now I'm looking at the woods tryna make it out the house
Toussaint L'Ouverture, I'm on the move where we going? follow me
