Talib Kweli - Traveling Light lyrics

[Verse 1] What's your name? I can tell you our story before we get into the game We fall head over heels over night See my face in your future I'm in your future, in your nights, mmm We're intense In a lip-lock, now 24/7, don't want it to end But reality's waitin', they say better come up for air soon Yeah, come up for air soon Make a change, mmm [Pre-Chorus] Fallen again, and don't understand Never my plan, nah [Chorus] I'm in a cycle Yeah, I admit it How can I change it when I don't know when I'm in it? I'm in a cycle Swear this is different Don't wanna end it, if you leave then I keep spinnin' My life's a cycle Don't mean we ain't true Just 'cause I talk about the things I've done before you I'm in a cycle Swear this is different Don't wanna end it, if you leave then I keep spinnin' [Verse 2] You're afraid (yeah) The way I love you now and my love in the past are the same And the things that I say are exactly what I used to tell them And that really hurts me, but I know, mmm [Pre-Chorus] Fallen again, and don't understand Never my plan, no [Chorus] I'm in a cycle Yeah, I admit it How can I change it when I don't know when I'm in it? I'm in a cycle Swear this is different Don't wanna end it, if you leave then I keep spinnin' My life's a cycle Don't mean we ain't true Just 'cause I talk about the things I've done before you I'm in a cycle Swear this is different Don't wanna end it, if you leave then I keep spinnin' [Bridge] Guess I'm romantic in a way Why don't you catch me when I sway? 'Cause when my heart falls out of place I know (oh, oh, oh) [Chorus] I'm in a cycle Yeah, I admit it How can I change it when I don't know when I'm in it? I'm in a cycle Swear this is different Don't wanna end it, if you leave then I keep spinnin' My life's a cycle Don't mean we ain't true Just 'cause I talk about the things I've done before you I'm in a cycle Swear this is different Don't wanna end it, if you leave then I keep spinnin'
