| Wassup y’all, it’s your girl and right now you checkin' out Larry Love and DJ
|
| O’Minaya on W-LLL
|
| Yea
|
| I want a love like Ruby and Ossie’s
|
| You know Ruby and Ossie
|
| Friends with the Kennedys, cool with the Cosbys
|
| Autobiographies, movies with Spike Lee
|
| Everything they did they did it together
|
| Not separately, just celebrities livin' off energy
|
| Love and serenities, so many memories
|
| They got arrested, protested for a legacy
|
| Wild in the seventies
|
| They knew Martin and Malcolm they were friends with ‘em
|
| They did eulogies for ‘em when they left
|
| Shoulders on both sides, leanin' on each other
|
| Hopin' they both strive
|
| When Ruby wasn’t actin' most of the slow times
|
| Ossie got gigs and said you know she could roll by
|
| If float by
|
| They work together just like Kobe and no 5
|
| When was not high
|
| I need that security, they dealt with impurities
|
| Money problems, worrying
|
| Here’s an example of an issue
|
| Ruby said divorce and I ain’t gon' miss you
|
| Ossie said aight, if you get married agian
|
| Make space for a brotha cause I’m comin' there with you
|
| That’s love, somethin' I want, somethin' I need
|
| That’s love, someone to hold, someone to please
|
| That’s love, somewhere to go, somewhere to be
|
| Go into the middle of nowhere with me
|
| If we are everything that you said that we should be
|
| Then I’m there, even I’m there
|
| And if we are the definition of connection
|
| Then I’m ready, forever and ever
|
| Ready, forever and ever, I’m there
|
| They even had side pieces
|
| Open marriage back then, it sound genius
|
| Then the man said I don’t want nobody else
|
| Cause my family means more to me than these wild divas
|
| I’m kinda speechless, 57 years is a lot of weeks spent
|
| A lot of respect, no lottery cheques can amount to the time
|
| That they bonded through debt
|
| Ruby said black women gotta understand
|
| The struggles of the black man in this wack land
|
| God don’t want me and he took her left hand
|
| Four finger seal with a nice wedding band, man
|
| I love you means I want you to be the very best you can be
|
| Whether it benefits me or not, damn
|
| And even in his death
|
| She put his ashes in the room right where she slept
|
| So they could be together while separated next
|
| And when she met with him they became one flesh
|
| Again, in the urn cause they was in it together
|
| Not just words
|
| This is what I want, when it come to her
|
| I have observed both of them so have learned
|
| Love overcomes lust and even through a loss
|
| Love overcomes trust, love overcomes much, yep
|
| Heaven is dope, 57 years down, forever to go
|
| Well, there you have it. |
| Love.Lust.Lost II in its completion I thoroughly
|
| enjoyed it and I hope the people did as well. |
| Tune in next week.
|
| Don’t forget to check Mickey out on tour and please listen to this lovely
|
| outro by Trise called «Farewell to Hello.» |
| Until next time this is Larry Love
|
| and this is DJ O’Minaya on the Love Hour on W-LLL FM and we encourage you guys
|
| to love, live and be lucrative. |
| Peace |
