Shawn B - Bon Voyage lyrics

[Verse 1] Let me, talk to the kids, but they don't really listen, they don't really pay attention What? You don't see the way they livin'? Is it not, on your comprehension from where you stand? See we tryna' expand and spit heat so hot that you can't block this with Ray-Bans With this, bra** band, never know when we will land We tryna' reach the base of the brain like the pituitary gland And I am, one of the nicest, really doin' it now, my friends know, you need someone then, you can trust in Lavell cause I go, go Got so many people depending on me now that stopping would be a no go I can't be a no, show, I gotta be me so this is real like it's, no show I cannot say goodbye, before I say hello, oh [Hook] More than we shoot for, more for the stars, more for the stars This is more than we are More than we shoot for, more for the stars, more for the stars This is bigger than y'all More than we shoot for, more for the stars, more for the stars This is bigger than y'all, but this is all for y'all, this is all for y'all Bon Voyage, Bon Voyage [Verse 2] When I was young me and my friends would discuss our dreams and visions And how we can, change the world with these talents we've be given But due to some decisions some are in prison Others are in prison of their own mind, living life in rewind, not knowing time is pa**ing them by Bye, we could no longer be close, when it rains, it snows There are a lot of flowers in a man's life, but only one rose That concrete rose, that was me that arose But I got love for you n***as, I mean, more love than you'll ever know, I suppose Life is a puzzle man ain't it? Life is a canvas, man paint it Don't be afraid, get acquainted, till you feel you are related Then you and life have relations And give it to her verbatim, so there is no ultimatum, I have the realest of conversations That come from love and frustration, thirst and all dehydration Hunger, and all this starvation, just adapt, adaption And push them back cause they waitin', to see you crack on your face When you faced with that they can't take it, but homie we gonna make it [Hook] [Verse 3] They say that life could be heaven or hell which side you wanna live Been taught the same principles since I, was a little kid And, growing up sometimes, you know, disrespecting em And straying away from friends that I thought that should be next to him Why? Why is it that we usually would lose unity? Cause as kids we all grew up, and had some insecurities Or some disbelief of things that we'd thought we'd be Only coming to realizing that, we've lost opportunities I, I wish that I could live with no fear If I could borrow your ear, then I would be so sincere My dear, I swear I love you so but in order for me to grow, I gotta let you go Naw, this ain't a rainbow with no skittles, but if you feelin' brittle let me fix you up a little Cause Elvis sang about a lonely man, The Beatles said “let me hold your hand” But Nas said “I know I can.”
