JDefeats - Penny For Your Thoughts lyrics

[Verse 1: David Dilin] If ever I could find Another girl whose rhyme scheme's similar to mine Then I would pay a dollar for a quarter with this dime And give her a penny for her thoughts and ask her what she's bought With so much intelligence What kind of house would you buy? Are you a resident In a gated community with the president? Or are you humble enough to buy a place And give the rest to the less fortunate? I mean knowledge is your currency And you're the richest female I've met, currently She'd pause for a sec' But I would still feel the heavy ricochet of her each and every word in me The silence was hurting me Until I realized that she was just a thought that had occurred in me Blush is red so my cheeks did the best they could do With the red hues in burgundy [Hook] Give me your thoughts, I'll give you a penny Give me your thoughts, I'll give you a penny Give me your thoughts, I'll give you a penny Give me what you've got, just don't leave me empty Give me your thoughts, I'll give you a penny Give me your thoughts, I'll give you a penny Give me your thoughts, I'll give you a penny Give me what you've got, just don't leave me empty [Verse 2: David Dilin] And she'd say, "What are your thoughts? What are your instincts? Everybody's full of 'em, but you look so empty Where's the inspiration? What compels you?" I gave her four plan words, "I can't tell you." She wouldn't understand the abstractions of my thought process The contents, the food for thought that's Present on my table, but then she'd Quickly switch the subject to some said fable She'd label me a rock that could not be broken I'd take it as a compliment. It really was the opposite She'd tell me I have an unreached token And it's unreachable because I won't become open The fable was of Moses when he stuck his faith out And put his staff upon the rock and watched the water rain out "You've got so much potential, a streaming flow of water But you'll just stay a rock if you refuse to talk your thoughts." [Hook] Give me your thoughts, I'll give you a penny Give me your thoughts, I'll give you a penny Give me your thoughts, I'll give you a penny Give me what you've got, just don't leave me empty Give me your thoughts, I'll give you a penny Give me your thoughts, I'll give you a penny Give me your thoughts, I'll give you a penny Give me what you've got, just don't leave me empty [Verse 3: David Dilin] And she'd say, "What are your thoughts? What are your instincts? Everybody's full of 'em, but you look so empty Where's the inspiration? What compels you?" I gave her one plain word: Truth
