We’ve met a few times, 3 or 4 times, they all went by much too fast
Eyes were so locked, led to small talk, wanting each moment to last
I can do this, tried to focus, but is so hard for me to see past
Your beauty, yeah mostly, all I could get out was a laugh


There are no words to say whenever you are near
I try to be myself but she just disappears
I’m nothing like those other girls, I am so weird
Cause I don’t bite my lip, or bat my eyes
When you walk by, when you walk by


You’re a star and everyone knows, maybe thats why I can never get close
I can barely remember most of what was said during our last
Conversation, overthinkin’, still so hard for me to see past
Your beauty, call me crazy but maybe you’d like to get to know me, baby


There are no words to say whenever you are near
I try to be myself but she just disappears
But boy I promise you will see that I’m sincere
Hope I’ll get another try
When you walk by, when you walk by


I’m not very flirtatious
I’m not gonna blow kisses
I don’t bat my eyelashes
I have nothing to lose, so how could it go wrong
But it’s so much easier to sing it in a song
this is more so a song

i admit, my head feeling too heavy
aint prepared but now i feel like im too ready
too steady, can't push me over
bob and weave and dip, wait they grabbing holsters?

---****---

it ain't that serious
eatin cereal at 3am, gettin curious
about Buddha and Jesus, imagine they cruise in a beater
with an 8-track playin classics from Bocephus

world leaders taking pics with the people, is that
a green screen or some hay from a needle?
every open door adds another horror more
hoping *****'s drugs keep me grounded on the floor

pop a little AD for my headache
need a little BB on for my soul's sake
or at least heard, logo on a t-shirt
do i think about the things that i dream for?
well i ask, who's got time?
in between all the *******, tryna make room for a dumb rhyme?
i guess im moving on to the next line
cuz everything might be okay

------------- yeah, right -------------

men with money and power deciding outcomes
and everybody with plans talking about some
sympathy and ignorance, everybody allowed some
i keep my feet planted, aint nothin new to see mouths run

try to read between the lies of the faint lips
overthinkin my demise, i need patience
paying loose change for my ancestral basics, and
now im too numb from the meds for the anxious

see, the thoughts in my head too loud
so i need something light just to hold me down
but i hear there's some of that goin round
everybody listenin for the same sounds

— The End —
