Текст Black Thought – Cojiba

Caramel complected, with a body like heaven
How many years was we together, probably like seven
That Ethio Eritria Somali type lovin’
Shoulda knew I would never find somebody like
Look on one Friday night session
Her minor indescretion had me like what Usher sing ’bout in True Confession
I was wishin’ I could go back, make a minor adjustment
But I knew that kind of throwback simply out of the question
I knew love’s not possession, wish I’d gotten a message
Instead of blocking my blessing, now it’s gotten depressing

We left and walked and talked ’bout everything that matter to her
Like foreign policy, race gender equality, climate change
Fashion, arts, the global economy
‘Bout how the key part of a relationship is honesty and
How her virtue was hard is something she can promise me, well
I said I dig the fact you woke and you keep it a hundo
But rushin’ in like
?
is something I’ve never done so
Since time is of the essence
If I enjoy your presence over time I might be so inclined to let have some lessons
I see you different ’cause my frequency is different
You can’t be under wing unless you equally as gifted
That’s yet to be determined, the jewelry’s still pending
What’s the use of pretending it could be a happen ending when I
