Toki Wright - Devil's Advocate lyrics

Chorus How do I explain What is it I can say That'll help me make it through the day How do I explain What is it I can say That'll help me change my evil ways How do I explain What is it I can say That'll help me take off all these chains Pleasure with the pain How do I explain Chorus I'm a Devil's Advocate... Miss Brown Skin Light brown skin Dark brown skin We can link around 10 I said, I ain't got no lady You ain'r got no man Tell me what's the deal What's the plan You want to talk Want to touch Want to make love Want to have s** Want to f**? You want all of the above But you want it with somebody You can trust Might as well face it I'm addicted to love Or is it lust Trying to keep you in my grasp In my clutch When we split like a dutch afterwards I wondered if we moved in a rush Not waiting for the next bus What they say Every 15 here comes another one 'bout to get in something that's troublesome Is a relationship possible Is it realistic or an obstacle Not for you I'm on the phone Said I need some time alone When you gone Wish I had you in my home Said you've got a Jonz in your bones Play D'angelo Angie Stone told me Come and get it while its warm I called you back and said come on Lets meet halfway We can burn it til We filling up the ashtray And I've never been the one for betrayl I've just got to find a way to say no Devil's Advocate Chorus How do I explain What is it I can say That'll help me make it through the day How do I explain What is it I can say That'll help me change my evil ways How do I explain What is it I can say That'll help me take off all these chains Pleasure with the pain How do I explain Chorus Sins of the father Cast down upon the son As the sun sits overcast Beaming down upon us Hand inside the gauntlet With a hair trigger Father figure Views The Bible Channel As he sips upon his liquor Son watches father Watching channel As the hammer hits the anvil And its thinning out the blade I recollect the times I could of died By suicide but stayed alive Before I hit the 7th grade I met a friend Who jumped over the ledge But someone grabbed her leg Before the halo or the flames came overhead I understood that all her tears were shed And realized that I lived in denial Later restless in my bed Know the secrets some should never know Deep inside I hold Wishing I was never ever told Praised by others Telling me I'm bold But I often wished my ears were shut Mouth were taped And eyes were closed So Chorus How do I explain What is it I can say That'll help me make it through the day How do I explain What is it I can say That'll help me change my evil ways How do I explain What is it I can say That'll help me take off all these chains Pleasure with the pain How do I explain Chorus The high rise is bigger Than the skyscrapers in the distance Living in a complex Can be some complex Section 8 'til we get it straight I said, we gon make it big Get up out here any day (Repeat) Chorus How do I explain What is it I can say That'll help me make it through the day How do I explain What is it I can say That'll help me change my evil ways How do I explain What is it I can say That'll help me take off all these chains Pleasure with the pain How do I explain Chorus
