Yo, just want to be real
Know what I mean
I just want to say
I came a long way
For real, like
I came a long way
[Verse 1]
Feeling like I'm a 30 year old, 30 year old man
With a baby face
My dick ain't fell off yet
Now that's amazing grace
All this bad
I never made a cake
No ones in the oven
Nobodies husband
I guess we just afraid to bake
Microwave mentality, instinct gratification
My ADD is in HD so f** masterin' patience
We so quick to choose any path
Faster than waitin'
Take us to the past so we could laugh with he ancients
So why the hell we so anxious just to languish some anguish
Be careful what you're asking for if your aim's to be famous
Local celebrity, everybody know what your name is
And who you currently datin'
And who you penetratin'
My reputation seems to be proceeding me
It seems to be standard procedure just to love 'em and leave 'em so leisurely
If I could make her say "I can't", I can
But what kind of man wants that all so easily
I got game like Gandhi in the observatory
The sun see many planets, but where the earth before me
Perhaps this is purgatory where I earn her glory
Cause so far, I can't get farther from a perfect story
And it's not like I really need new p**y
But I be living on the edge so if you push me
I gotta fly or either fall for another
So be careful not to make it too hard for a brotha
Word up
[Hook]
I heard you can't stop, but you had a bite
But my eyes are too big for my appetite
And I might want a midnight snack tonight
But my eyes are too big for my appetite
I swear I had them on Blacks and Whites
But my eyes are too big for my appetite
But I really need to chill and just have a wife
But my eyes are too big for my appetite
[Verse 2]
My homies felt the need to testify
I guess I had it on his heart, so he just let it fly
He left his girl for him because she had a jealous eye
Spreading lies, Going through his texts like the FBI
Then she found out she had an STI
A mutual friend found a bottle of [?] she hide
He got tested, turns out she ain't infect my guy
But how she claim to love him but let his health be jeopardized
It ain't love if you gotta throw respect aside
Just to spread your thighs
Otherwise it's access denied
If he infected her she would've been the devil's bride
Sleeping with the enemy, now how is that for selfish pride
They had him praying for forgiveness for my indiscretion
Dissecting hidden lesson with my imperfections
Nowadays you gotta ask these n***as many questions
Cause s** in the wrong hands could be a k**er weapon
Some people live lives polyamorous
I wonder if I stopped and asked "Can my body handle this?"
It probably cancelled why you chancin' it
Maybe you should fall back a bit, even if you ain't abstinent
Cause a lot of folks are straight banned for it
But you can't be mad 'cuase sh**, you still had a hand in it
It's just that so many of us got that shallowness
But the bright side is no one had a [?]
[Bridge] 2x
She's got bows, with arrows
Too many hoes, with pharaohs
Like a rose, with no petals
Got toes, [?]
[Hook]
I heard you can't stop, but you had a bite
But my eyes are too big for my appetite
And I might want a midnight snack tonight
But my eyes are too big for my appetite
I swear I had them on Blacks and Whites
But my eyes are too big for my appetite
But I really need to chill and just have a wife
But my eyes are too big for my appetite
[Verse 3]
30 years of Fatherless youth...
30 years of Fatherless youth and we think this doesn't have an effect, a traumatic effect on relationships and how we treat one another
You know, Mother-Father relationships
When the house is broken, the heart is broken
And we go on looking for love and happiness through other people when we cannot find love and happiness within self
I would say a man who looks for happiness from a woman is a fool
Because happiness, is a contract for self
I would say a man who looks for happiness in a woman is a fool
Because happiness is a contract for self
A man does not look towards his woman for happiness, a man looks towards his woman for peace
A piece of mind is the greatest thing a woman could other a man
And undivided attention is the greatest thing a man could offer a woman
I said undivided attention is the greatest thing a man could offer a woman
Love is self first, and if you cannot find a way to love yourself, you can never find a way to love others
Remember that
Love is love, love is love
