*Lyrics* Verse 1 Aunt Lisa said you can’t come around here no more When we broke the bed she felt disrespected and all Confused Said “would I ever do that to you?” And in return I feel like I fool Now I walk for days with nowhere to rest my head Vape in my mouth but got a feeling that it might be dead There’s no smoke As I reach in my pocket for my phone, There’s no texts, there’s no missed calls Chorus In the morning we can start We can start over, again Verse 2 Reading about trauma In our daughters Has got me shook I got things to learn, I got fears to burn ‘til then I won’t cook, a bun in my oven when I wanna get wet No matter how my guy protests On the third day, we shall rise again And come back around Been here before, kinda sick of myself But also quite proud It’s hard, being at the mercy of man And dealing my cards with my wrong hand Chorus x2

@alexsamuel50844 жыл бұрын
A P. I like her , but I'm not crazy about this song, nor do I feel like we need another Macy Grey or Erica Bado (sp); however, I will check out "Honey For Wounds". She's incredibly talented, don't get me wrong, but I hate to hear artist that are too close sounding to what is already unique, special or different. She's also beautiful, I love and prefer dark women-I may end up eating my own words. Thank you for your recommendation

@@alexsamuel5084 fair assessment my brother. I definitely get your point. My thing is that you gotta get in where you fit in. If you have to switch up from what u know and what got you to the point you're at, why change just to stand out? That would be disingenuous at best. I think there's enough room for everyone. And at the end of the day, if it's good who cares? Just my take fam.👍🏼
@alexsamuel50844 жыл бұрын
@@adg_87 Honest and fair reply without any admonishment. And, I have to agree; however, it wouldn't hurt to deviate slightly, even if its just showcasing a slight rapping style or even utilizing another form of music. For example, you don't hear much from rapper XIBIT, and I'm not assuming that you like hip hop, but as a 54 year old who grew up on it he's one of the few artist I've ever heard and seen that utilized classical music to his rhymes.
