EQ - The Metaphor lyrics

[Verse 1] You have seen me through my worst days, seen me through my best days Seen me when I'm down, seen me when my chest caved To think that I selected you cause no one else was there? Naw n***a, it was just that every time I pressed play Every time we touched, like every time I spit I would feel the rush, like I was hittin' piff Feel it in my veins, I would feel it blood Like I was fated to destiny by someone up above Beyond what we accept as the universe The same God that created love also made it so you could hurt The same God created hate made it so you could birth The same God created fate for which you go to church Word to Kanye, this is the church of Everything that anything to do with my first love The best I ever had, this is a letter to ya I give you all of me, I could never be better to ya And there's a lot of people that I know have treat you right And there's a lot of people that I know have treat you wrong And I can see the pain in your eyes when they release songs They be sellin' you out just to get their feature on Never make what's coming out of it, but got their speakers on Hate behind the sidelines, n***as got their bleachers on Never saw the haters cause they never saw the vision, baby No one listens to me quite the way you listen Too complex for you to choreograph And I could probably tell you my whole story in rap But it started with a boy who adopted a religion Through perpetuation - that is not decision No, I am not hatin' - I'm just lookin' back You can rest a**ured in the fact that I believe in something bigger What if I told you I found something perfect as God is This is my church, and that these people were my prophets? What if I told you it was you, and that I fell in love In fact, I fell so hard that I was never getting up? I give you everything - hoping that you give it back Feeling like we're one, but I'm hoping that you signal back Judging by the chemistry we've got potential energy To give you what I want to give you would take ten of me The sacrifices always remind me that nothing's free And other n***as? They just treat you like the f**in's free You are my shelter, I give you shelter enough to grow We've got a future, I'm dedicated enough to know You give me hope; I got more than enough to dream But everything that I give you's never enough it seems To the style of this life that I be livin' for you To the pen in my hand that this kid is grippin' for you I'm always coming home . . it'll be and you This is to hip hop, from the E to Q [Outro Bridge, written by Slug of Atmosphere] No matter where I am, no matter what I do I'm always coming back home to you They can leave me for dead, they can take away my true I'm always coming back home to you Through the lies and the sins that ride the wind that blew I'm always coming back home to you As sure as the life in the garden that you grew I'm always coming back home to you No matter where I am, no matter what I do I'm always coming back home to you If only I had known what you already knew I'm always coming back home to you From the heaven I've had to the hell I've been through I'm always coming back home to you I'm always coming back home to you
