Ocean Song |
I treat my woman like water, I play with her emotions |
Got her floatin' that’s until I get her salty like the ocean |
She engrossin', she full of mysteries and revelations |
It’s ironic, sea level is the highest elevation |
She be movin' with the moon cause she move and she in tune |
With the universe she bloom like bearded irises in June |
She make me swoon, if you’re not careful she will suck you in |
You’re piratin' lookin' for that booty but the treasure you discover |
Is the mothership, marry for the love of it |
You wonderin' why you need a licence from the government? |
She the pool you jumpin' in, your neighbours covered in the earth |
Three fourths water that’s the length you wanna |
She bugging when I’m gone I’m comin' back when I get off the tour |
but could the ocean ever divorce the shore? |
I stare at her, I see the sun reflectin' cause it mirror her |
I’m humble but I never feel inferior, still |
Who am I to fight the ocean? |
The battle just begun |
But the only way to win is if me and the ocean one |
When I swim against the current I’m showin' ‘em my pride |
But her strength is a deterrent so I’m goin' with the tide |
I can’t fight it, no, I can’t fight it, no |
I can’t fight it, no, I can’t fight it, no |
I can’t fight it, no, I can’t fight it, no |
I can’t fight it, no, I try to fight it |
She get loud at night, way too loud to listen to me |
And so I’m out at night, you know there’s other fish in the sea |
Now I’m soundin' like a stowaway, the ocean overwhelmin' |
I’m so small, surprised she noticed me |
Let’s go away and get a room with a spectacular view |
Don’t be a basic chick, focussed on the bag and the shoes |
I’m playing favourites, you labourin' so hard that you broke the water |
Got all sorts of memories and cured the remedies that you could show your |
daughters |
Go with me so we can sow the seeds |
A gem so rare that they should keep her in the booth with the Mona Lisa |
My poetry lives where the sky and the ocean meet |
The potency capsizin' |
See the ocean spray wetter than a kiss from my lover’s lips |
Kiss the mothership, if God the ocean and I’m just a sip |
Because of this waterless life, let’s have a baby |
You so wavy, Ii’s crazy, now I’m drownin' come and save me |
No I can’t fight it |
So tired it’s like |
And it’s winning when his thirst quenchin' |
Don’t fight it, no |
Just let it flow |
Like the ocean, just let it flow |
I’m the ocean, just let it flow |
