I wanna be nice
And I wanna be gentle
I wanna be a romantic
And I wanna be together
I wanna know that in the coldest weather
That we will never sever
When I levitate you'll be here forever
It's something more
Someone that I adore
But devastating to my core
And it's the rage, it's blanks on every page
It's the way that you'll never act your age
And I wanna be calm, And I wanna heal your hurt
I wanna correct all that you said no worth
Tell me, will staying here make it worse?
If I fight for your peace, will I lose my own fight?
So tell me tonight, in this storm we rehearse,
Is love my salvation, or deepens the curse?
Change me
Rearrange me
It'll hurt before it feels
Fake before it's real
Mirror reveals
Shadow concealed
How do you kill?
How do you kill?
How do you kill?
What's not even real?
It's been a lot of things I learned since we been through
Been a lot of people that told me about the real you
Tell me, do you sleep good at night
Since all you do is abuse?
What do you do with all those hidden truths?
Tell me, will you smell his blood when I wring it through?
And it's broken pieces, it's feces
No singularity
No anthesis
I need this
I breathe this
The complexity of your bones
I read this
It's lust
It's love
It's a must
Nothing above
But if I shove off this roadside
And I collide
To see you in another life
To breed the sins of the past
To be your wife
It's suicide
It's devotion
Lost in your eyes, vast as an ocean
No more coasting
Show me what I'm owed then
Come on my love, drink the potion
It's Cupid's poison
I never wanna see you die unless it's by my side
I never wanna lie unless it's to give you peace of mind
I never wanna give you away unless you wanna decay
Yo I close my eyes
I see my father staring back at me
It's sad to see the reality of a Black woman's curse not living happily
Root rot, it's in my family tree
Eyes all on me as I choose between numbness or redemption
Am I Insane?
In the veins
Scars in my veins
Reigns the millennium of pain
Broken bonds we wear like chains
It's unseen
Trading touch for trauma in the in-between
I'm broke
But I poke at what scenes seem unseen
Love wrapped in apprehension
Mother loved a man who mirrored her affliction
Hollow "I love you's" carved in tradition
I want you to be a witness
This is my rendition
This is a concentrated mission
Men made of shadow, women built on intuition
But what's love if it's born from superstition?
A spell cast blind with no intermission
I feel it crawling
Pain that ain't mine
Inherited lies written into my bloodline
Do I break the cycle or just toe the line?
Love's been a battlefield masked as divine
I'm tryna till soil where bitterness grew
Water the roots with truth and start anew
Heal what they hid, feel what they knew
Turn generational wounds into something true
So I choose redemption over resistance
Build a legacy that don't need repentance
Let my kids know love without distance
A new line written with sacred persistence
It'll hurt before it feels
It'll fake before its real
Promise you it'll heal
Murder reveals the shadows concealed
Sing with me how to kill
The blood of lies
From hollow eyes
Till the void inside us fills
The void of lies
From hollow eyes
Till the void inside us fills
The void of lies
From hollow eyes
Till the void inside us fills
The void of lies
From hollow eyes
Till the void inside us fills
The void of lies
From hollow eyes
Till the void inside us fills
The void of lies
From hollow eyes
Till the void inside us fills
The void of lies
From hollow eyes
Till the void inside us fills
The void of lies
From hollow eyes
Till the void inside us fills
