Have A Baby (With Me)


You hold my hand, but in your head, you've already left
You free yourself of patience
You sit on the bed, but your shadow is getting dressed
You've had too many years of waiting
I know you're not comin' to the life that we wanted
What if it cut short with the fires I've started?

Have a baby with me, me
Have a baby with me
There's no time to believe in what we could be
Have a baby with me

You couldn't eat with grills for teeth
Is Lower East still inside your memory?
What if we married? What if you believed
In God, this world, in Hell, and all the things that this could be?
But you need to leave, you ought to see
What this world can offer you, outside of me

Have a baby with me, before you leave
Have a baby with me
There's no time to believe in what we could be
We could leave something here
It's too late for our dreams
We can make a new dream
Have a baby with me
Have a baby with me

Woman, I need you, like never before
African woman, you're the one I adore
I-I-I need you, like never before
I'll give you all I've got, and I'm sure

Call On Me


Finally you're right where you wanna be
Comfortably inside of my arms
I seen it coming, we was manic
Pleasantly
Whatever that means, oh, baby

Whenever you feel your tummy rumble
Need something to eat
(What have you left for me to do? Yes)
(What have you left for me to do? Yes)
Whenever you feel your pockets empty
Can call on me
(What have you left for me to do?)
(What have you left for me to do?)
Call on me, baby

You change your, you change your
You change your energy when we get home
Get what you need and then I'm all alone
Blessings raining down upon me
Baby, it's no harm if you really want my money
Come and take it from me, come and take it from me
Take advantage of my better nature (better nature)
I burn through money, yeah, I'm burning paper
Who needs it? Not me

Whenever you feel your tummy rumble
Need something to eat
(What have you left for me to do? Yes)
(What have you left for me to do? Yes)
Whenever you feel your pockets empty
Can call on me
(What have you left for me to do?)
(What have you left for me to do?)
Call on me, baby

Oh-oh-ooh-oh, oh-oh-ooh-oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh-oh-ooh-oh, oh-oh-ooh-oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Baby Blue


[ Featuring Norwill Simmonds ]

Baby blue
I'm privileged to know you
And from this point on
Your delight is my delight
Baby blue
I like your eyes, they sparkle
You find me in a dark hole
But now I know you're my light
You oversee, or all of me, you do
It's true
The heavens above, they suit you
I'm glad you preed my energy
It's much like yours
Be assured

So many colors to choose from
You chose blue
So many people to choose from
I choose you
You, you
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la

Baby blue (baby blue)
Sometimes I feel blue too
But when I look at you
My melancholy dissipates
And when in doubt, you call me out
I too, shall rise
On occasion
To the occasion
It's worth my time 'cause you're divine
It's obvious, yes
So I'm waiting

So many colors from
You chose blue
So many people to choose from
I choose you
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la
La-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

Root Of All Evil


What have I done? What should I do?
Forces of evil pull me away from you
I let 'em in, granted them entry
Now that you're gone, nobody gets me

Am I a man or a beast?
Somebody please discipline me
For I'm a sinner, a sinner

I know I should stay away but I can't
I'm too drawn to the evil
I know that I've gone astray, here I am
So many pretty people

Good of my heart, where will it lead?
It's only a door, for people will leave me
If I take you back, what will I turn to?
Sin is a gesture that I know you see through

Am I a man or a mouse?
Inside your house, stuck, can't get out
Sin is a weakness, and you see it

I know I should stay away but I can't
Proclivity to evil
I know that I've gone astray, here I am
So many pretty people

Who Knows


I'll probably be a waste of your time, but who knows?
Chances are I'll step out of line, but who knows?
Lately, you've set up in my mind
Yeah, girl, you, and I like that, ooh

Lately, I've been thinking that perhaps I am a coward
Hiding in a disguise of an ever-giving flower
Incompetent steward of all of that sweet, sweet power

Yesterday was feeling so good, now it's gone
I'd feel like that always if I could, is that wrong?
Tell me 'bout the city you're from
Is it hot? Does it snow there?

Lately, I've been thinking 'bout my precarious future
Will you be there with me by my side, my girl, my shooter?
Who's to say who calculates? Not me, I'm no computer

Is it a crime to be unsure?
In time, we'll find if it's sustainable
You're pure, you're kind, mature, divine
You might be too good for me, unattainable

Maybe we get married one day, but who knows?
Think I'll take that thought to the grave, but who knows?
I know that I'll love you always
Yeah, girl, you, and I like that

Moon


[ Featuring Bon Iver ]

Hit dogs will holler, I'll howl at the moon
I'm not who I wanna be at the moment
Maybe soon
Fighters keep fighting, I'll fight 'til I'm blue
And fill up with lactic acid
The fighting produced

I'd rather fight for you
The only way I know, that ain't sustainable (you leave when you get to know)
Who's gonna fight for me? Who will advocate?

Who's gonna be my Jesus?
Pull up on a cloud?
Play that trumpet loud?
Carry me home?
Who's gonna be my Jesus? Who will advocate?

Violence is as violence does
Men is but a pile of dust
Why are you a weapon formed up against me?
Is this what you call love?
Someday I will leave your home
I'll be a man, I'll make my own
And I'll set this wood on fire, you can't stop me
There I will rest my bones

Touching God


[ Featuring Blood Orange, Yebba ]

I know you're sick and tired of words
Floating 'round the universe in spite
Of all the time and all the work
You put in, I know it hurts, and I
I've seen you lose your ground to lowly skies
Fell too fast, can't get the chance to cry
Who will you ever be without their eyes?
What good's your voice if no one really minds?

Settle down till the moment comes around
There's a plan you won't understand for now

I was going so crazy, couldn't run
I know there's a God that's withholding His help
I know You made me but I hate myself
And I know, when I know that it's buried somewhere else
And I know that I'll find my moment
'Cause what good's your voice if no one really minds?

When I was a child, I spoke like a child
When I was a child, I became a man
When I was a child, thought like a child

Oh, Lord
Thy kingdom come
Yes, you're an awesome God
Thy will be done
Oh, Lord
The battle is won
On Earth and Heaven
Praised be the Son

Sign Of The Times


Mister, mister
I heard God speaks to man through signs
Well I think I just seen mine
'Cause when I kissed her
I pictured her bringing forth life
Like Madonna and her child

No need to be alarmed
It's just love
And the future
But so what?

Mister, mister
Do you think I should let her know
Or wait it out, let colours show?
'Cause when I'm with her (when I'm with her)
Impulsivity pulls at me
I'm stronger now than I used to be

It might be too late
I've gone
And spilled my guts
But it feels so great
It's risky
So what?

I think it's finally 'bout that time, a nigga nearly thirty
Find some soil to plant a seed, Lord, send me someone worthy
I was chasing 'round my f*cking lady like a sycophant
But you brought me up and out of Egypt with your single hand

My homie crashed the Tesla and that shit went up in flames
The Lord, He got him out in time, I wanna tell Him "Thanks"
Sometimes I feel it should've been me inside of the passenger side
Then it would've been me 'stead of

Is it my fault? God decides who stays, who goes
Can I ask the question? 'Cause I really wanna know
I was at home in my bed, my spirit felt a disturbance
Signs are all around me, I'm just trying to interpret

I know, I know, I know, yes, I know
I know a sign when I see one, sign when I see one

Emily's Song


Why don't you answer my calls no more?
Is it something that I've said?
Tired of checking my telephone
You're running through my head

We used to stay up for hours, many nights
Fussing and fighting, f*cking and lying
Nights in Miami, tears at the Grammy

I just wanna thank you
For being my mirror
Showing me myself
I just wanna thank you
You helped me see clearer
Like nobody else

Now that the feeling has floated away
And I got a bit of clarity
Addicts are addicts and will never change
But we were never scared to be
I'll get it all out my system by God's grace
I'll never regret you, it's Heaven that sent you
But I'll never go back
I hope that you know that

I just wanna thank you
For being my mirror
Showing me myself
I just wanna thank you
You helped me see clearer, like nobody else

No More Loving (On Women I Don't Love)


[ Featuring 646yf4t ]

No more loving on women I don't love
F*ck these power-tripping niggas that be lying on God above
F*ck the world 'cause the truth is at stake
Give you all the lemons and say f*ck what you made

I'm no better, no better
Make promises that float like feathers
But I try, try, try
I still try, try, try

Give you the best of me, nothing lesser
Go out swinging, a real warrior's end
Drown my face in blood and sweat
Call on Jesus for my death

No more loving on women I don't love
F*ck these power-tripping niggas that be lying on God above
Forget the world 'cause the truth is at stake
Give you all the lemons and say f*ck what you made

Although I walk through the valley
Of the shadow of death
I will fear no evil, fear no evil
Although I walk through the valley (I hear no caution)
Of the shadow of death (yet, it's all in connection, oh)
I will fear no evil, fear no evil (my prayers burst through the sky, so I)
Dare you to come and step to me
I dare you to come and step to me
I dare you

Sins Of The Father


[ Featuring Bon Iver ]

Oh Lord, I bear this weight
My mom and my daddy, upon me they've placed
I have no words to say
It's written there all over my face

Oh Lord, perpetual pain
I can't be at home where
My father lays
In time we'll fade away
Hopefully it's to the same place

Father, You said You'd love me
Like my own never could
How could I ever thank Thee?
You are good

There is no one like You
You gave Your life so I wouldn't have to
Where there is one, there's two
It's me and You

I've got all this hate in my heart
But I got no place to put it
Tried to leave it behind but I couldn't
I need alchemical transmutation
I need alchemical transmutation

I've got all this pain in my heart
But I got no place to put it
Tried to leave it behind but I couldn't
I need alchemical transmutation
I need alchemical transmutation

Dad was forgetful, he promised a lot
Thankfully, he never got caught
Passed it to me now, I finally can see
Forgetting's a gift, thank you, God

Forgot your birthday, I'm sorry, my dear
At least my stance remains clear
I'll forget your birthday like every year
Who gives a f*ck anyways?

Those are the sins of the father
Those are the sins
Sins, sins, sins, sins of the father
Turn around
Turn around
Child of mine
