Let It Talk

 

Ooh, baby, you’ve been gone a long time

See your eyes, lookin’ like they lost mine

Shawty, I know it’s way past our bedtime

Where you headin' every night, crossin’ that line?

 

Say you meetin’ with your girl, like it's college days

But I want the whole truth, not just a phrase

Damn, you bring the worst outta me

Hate the way I gotta act so mean

Rollin’ tree, it's the last thing I got

Smokin’ life down to the very last shot

 

Yeah girl, let your soul speak,

Let the truth talk, no more mystique

Walkin' 'round like you bulletproof, huh

But you trip hard when that liquor loosens up huh?

 

777, sing it up to God

Tell him you were lost, tryin’ to play the odds

You been testin' all my patience,

This love’s not growin', it’s breakin’, degradin'

I see the treason you been hidin’ in your mind

Tickin’ clocks and hourglasses you rewind

Open up your eyes, girl, look outside

Let the light hit, let your demons die

 

It’s sad how the truth just fades

In the dark, where your fears cascade

Devil got a grip, sayin' "You’re mine"

But I see through the games and the signs

Hey you, always actin’ kinda crazy

Hey you, always tryna play me shady

This world ain't just meant for pain

We divide, we multiply, we carry shame

 

Subtract the pride from that star quarterback

Now he’s laid out on a greyhound, leanin’ way back

My ancestors bled for the bed on my back

For every whip, I wrote lines, kept track

Read every detail, between every rhyme

Stayed up too long just to lose my mind

 

Yeah, it’s more than love (It’s more than it!)

More than love! (More than it!)

It’s more than love! (More than love!)

It’s what they took, what I reclaim

Truth in my veins, pain in my name

 

777, callin’ home tonight

God, are you listenin'? I need a light

Let it blaze through the smoke and lies

I see the fight, I still try

Yeah girl, ooh, let the soul speak

One last breath, let the pain release

Open up your blinds, let the truth be known

This love was war,now I’m headed home.
