Lateef - Balcony Beach lyrics

[Hook] Ooo baby We can make it happen Make it through baby All we Need to do is begin rejuvenating Keep it all in focus and pursue it Faithfully Do it patiently Just the way the sea's been this evening I came out at eight, was leaning on the railing I kept hearing the waves crashing beneath me Back and forth, just rephrase what they were saying Over and over, and doing that repeatedly Crash, go back, just a constant thing Every time they'd go back out to sea It's like they'd draw a little bit more out of me A lot of images, feelings - just a limitless release And I began to reminisce freely It was a cinema featuring me and a cast of emotions That demanded my attention immediately Now, I had previously put them on hold On the back burner since earlier I didn't want to deal with it At that time, I felt like other things were pertinent Now I see it's permanent unless I get real with it And it ain't that I don't love to tussle Especially mentally, cause I generally do win Might not win at first, but definitely eventually Cause I ain't never not been a shoe-in since birth But now, this is special though. See, it's beyond my threshold I'm accustomed to just a conventional struggle with two opponents Only here, the tussle's between you and the truth So ultimately I'm gonna lose Actually I gain though. I gotta be honest with myself Or else I'll impede my personal progress I think it's better to be depressed for a minute, admit it And get re-oriented instead of being a bitter cynic, isn't it? [Hook] Getting older, and everybody around me acts all sober And they're looking poker-faced I started losing hair at the corners, matter-of-fact I looked up top - that whole border's just jacked Nobody's gonna chauffeur me anymore Whatever this is... we all go through it I guess It's just awkward - I'm not a hundred percent comfortable with The rate that everything's developing at It's just a little overwhelming at times I'm dealing with hella sh** to process, it's new data daily There's really no preparing for this thing Or, maybe it's mainly just me acting strangely It's just me facing the challenge, I doubt it though Cause I met thousands of people, seen something similar in their faces It's like the outlook is changing I think it's called 'being a man in the making' It's burnt, I like Pralines now Long walks solo where I can sort my thoughts out Just what I've been taught to date Doesn't gel well, the way that I've been feeling these days That's coming from a ton of angles, you know, hella places I'm really not trying to make a political statement But just in terms of like internally inside I'm at an interval in my life where it's a turbulent time And I could pretend that it's all good That I shouldn't put so much on it Let it sit and just settle itself, stop acting all sappy and sentimental Besides, everything's perfectly fine But here I am on this balcony with my thoughts just traveling randomly On some tangent, and in the back of my mind I keep hearing this lady with a voice that's beautiful She keeps saying [Hook] Ooo baby We can make it happen Make it Through baby All we need to do is begin rejuvenating Keep it all in Focus and pursue it faithfully Do it patiently
