Eric G - Precious Wings lyrics

[Intro] [Verse 1] En garde it's the war of the heart still Warring with my past how a lot of us women feel Brother sneaking on you like Jay in on Rothschild That's how the feeling hit you just like missing your birth pill Sickness, remembering the calls that you got, ill? No, I was more hurt than embarra**ed could not deal Carrying this baggage and I wonder how he feel That new man I got who wanna do more than cop feels Unlike them old flames in my day that I used to deal Wit only concerned with your looks and your s** appeal They all claim to love you then its down like Brazil From here on, sensitive ‘bout the trust like good will Used over and over, I've been through it the worst Try to pay it no mind just like the bills on the first That's when I black out like them women in church Catching the ghost of yesterday who all remind me of hurt I messed up, and all I ask now is patience preceded In the shower tryna wash the pain with Ivory breeze Crying my eyes out till the touch of the water was freezing Thinking of that baby that is no longer breathing He had and he lied about it Asking myself “why the hell I even cry about it” I'm better off without him Cuz what I got with you outweighs all the riches, power And all the gold and what I know is I can't do without you [Verse 2] En garde it's the war of the heart still Know he made for you, tho someone else got the deal And they dont ‘preciate it, got you watching your Fossil Know your time coming, new edition to it like J Gill My, my, my remain tough like the diamonds do Every day is pressure, each one feeling like 22 Catches, there's some give and take in all of it, learning Tryna educate myself as I go through it like Lauryn In the 2-5, where I was raised and Mama Lou died A lot girls in my age all lead wit their two thighs How can I expect 'em to be different if in they eyes They see themselves as what they all holla they despise Pea size inside, when we P' size outside Two inches from 6'5”, if we won't too high We would be too high, to be touched, M. Blige The breakthrough, shouts to Hip Hop dedicated to you My precious wings [Verse 3] En garde it's the war of the heart still Heavy hearts for all the heroes that need will Real power, we watch um fall like towers, down Cuz they ain't none around to keep um from doing downhill Addicted to the villains, and it all turns bad Until the villains take our heroes and we all feel sad Even heroes need a hero to watch out for they back though Under all the armor they just women and men yo Fighting for our cause, and in the end, we should all Band together for they sake and give 'em something to stand fo' Instead me making jokes at 'em, and we laughing at 'em When we all sinners in the end just like Eve and Adam So, dear madam I pray for you and mos' Definitely pray you find peace that you need cope Cuz hope don't ever die like legends And since the age of seven I knew I would touch the world the most So, peace to you love, forever on top I show respect cuz who we talking bout is Hip Hop So, peace to you love, forever on top I show respect cuz who we talking bout it Hip Hop My precious wings
