| We learnt to love ourselves until we were full
|
| Until we did not need yours
|
| Until we realised our own was enough
|
| We will not apologise for being the night sky
|
| Black and broken and beautiful
|
| Our own type of constellation
|
| Don’t you know light lives in dark places too?
|
| Yo (Juls baby)
|
| I ain’t even gonna lie
|
| I need you on the sly
|
| But feelings get tekky when i’m dealing with my pride
|
| All the things you said were trying to lead me to your mind
|
| But to really see the signs I had to read between the lines
|
| Our ting runs deep they ain’t gonna understand it
|
| And they don’t know I see their compliments are underhanded
|
| Now mandem moved all mad all over sudden don’t wanna panic
|
| Coz i’m coming for your back like I ain’t gonna fuckin' have it
|
| Subtle but erratic, it’s only coz of you though
|
| I ain’t even plan it had to rule it out like pluto
|
| Got me staying static just to guarantee that you grow
|
| And you know this shit’s the truth
|
| Coz unlike your bredrins I ain’t telling
|
| No lie, I need what’s precious to you
|
| Comfort in your darkness beauty humble me too, no lie
|
| Show me my journey’s in vain
|
| Run fingers through your history and learn my real name, no lie
|
| Onsite, each day
|
| Took me way too long to understand what got me, no lie
|
| No lie, each day
|
| Run fingers through your history and learn my real name, no lie
|
| I don’t see mother nature in the landscape
|
| Portrait of my history
|
| Could never let them paint a portrait into your dynasty
|
| There’s wisdom in your majesty and mystery
|
| God is a black woman and the universe is part of her infinity
|
| Supple at the soil of the earth you gave birth to
|
| Honey in your heart it’s golden and full of virtue
|
| Last of the flowers to blossom but you’re the first through
|
| Blackest of the berries I vow to never desert
|
| Your generational love (your generational love)
|
| So I never felt more safe than when I was placed in her bust
|
| She healed the hate with a hug mama walking without soul
|
| But you recognise the touch when you feel the rays of the sun (feel the rays of
|
| the sun)
|
| Sweet Lord, God just don’t see no flaws
|
| Kindness 'til she came to the door
|
| Honest i’ll forever be yours
|
| Teach me, how to love like you love yourself
|
| Coz I see no evil speak none too around you I don’t see nothing else, no lie
|
| Sweet Lord, God just don’t see no flaws
|
| Kindness 'til she came to the door
|
| Honest i’ll forever be yours
|
| Teach me, how to love like you love yourself
|
| Coz I see no evil speak none too around you I don’t see nothing else, no lie |
