Dear mr lover
brother, fellow lover
you came to mind
you're a type of blues
A hint of funk
& I thank Jah for that
Now brother, fellow lover,
your name has a certain ring to it
So I thank your mother for that
Now mr lover
why you so shy?
You're a man of swagger right?
A man with an ego too big for his own good
the man of night
The thief, the predator
A man that walks that walk
& talks that talk
One who holds his own
A kicking it back kinda guy
you just tryna keep it cool, right?
A smooth type of brother
But see mr lover
Your eyes give it away
they burn like flames
mr lover your cool demeanor is front, ok.
See your body language reads differently. the body of the mind is what I comprehend
your body language is what I'm fluent in
& mr lover it's the language of possibilities
