Delanie - Aloe Vera Lyrics

Too lazy to build the pressure
My baby is my forever
Lately it's looking like I won't ever be your successor
The bigger the dream, the better
But my eyes, they well up
Thinking of how he left you and watching you have to step up
Mess up, forget us, single handed and single
Maybe all of your love was inside of my colored pencils
Time you got me them skittles, nickels and extra sprinkles
Promising to you now to make it up with my singles

With more to say
I should've thanked you more
You've shown the way, yeah
There's more to thank you for

I promise to hold it down, not take it too fast or slowly
I promise to hold it down, these suckas they think they know me
Nah ah, ah-ah, ah, ah
Nah ah, ah-ah, ah
I promise to hold it down, not take it too fast or slowly

And it's the smell of the trees, opened sunflower seeds
Aloe vera and weed, like you just gave grass its green
After I hear your keys from a hard day's work
Playing card games in a stargazed world
Feeling sad when you'd yell about the dishes again
Feeling happy you liked if I made a brand new friend
I didn't know shit then, my skin was golden tan
We'd sing to soulja boy, we'd sing the ice cream man
I miss it every day, I miss it every day
I didn't know shit then but I miss it every day
I miss the neighborhood, I miss the childhood
I thought I never had but I just misunderstood

With more to say
I should've thanked you more
You've shown the way, yeah
There's more to thank you for

I promise to hold it down, not take it too fast or slowly
I promise to hold it down, these suckas they think they know me
Nah ah, ah-ah, ah, ah
Nah ah, ah-ah, ah
I promise to hold it down, not take it too fast or slowly
