05 LOVE SONG
Love Song
Live Mxaku
[Verse 1]
Big dreams that we have l wonder if
We gonna make it, stand a chance to sit at the
table with Jay Z, cheeks are sore from smiling, red carpet
We posing, but what if we make it, and end up losing you
I'm afraid, I'm sure you heard that money raised
People it's a root, though we dwell in heaven so did
The devil yet we depend on this root to make a living,
Raise children, l guess it's fate that we evil.
What if l fail to make us stand and pose on the red carpet?
I hate pity, how would l noticed that l failed
if l kept trying? I know sometimes it doesn't work
but l keep praying, praying to God for better cards
Though l get tired
[Verse 2]
There are many people, working so hard as much as l do
Not any of them has written a song about you
I'm not pounding my chest coz they got their own lovers too
So why should l listen to fools, with prejudice views?
Advising me to do, what other rappers are doing
Can't they see that we different and our stories are different?
Anyway that's the pain of not being at the top
What would really hurt, is you not knowing who l am
So what if this game, requires me to compromise
Who l really am? but a starving man is willing
To lose all his cool, even if this game is dishing
Spoiled and salty food, but l think I'm fortunate
Because l never crave, especially for a free lunch
It carries obligations, and so for us we reap the fruit we sow
It's difficult, to trust yourself when everybody has
A second thought, l like to pretend like "who cares?"
Though l get tired
[Verse 3]
This was meant to be a love song, but in the abattoir
It's difficult to think 'bout poems, you'd be stunned
By what people can do when seeking gold, and appluads
I should tell you how you make me feel, coz you don't know
I should tell you that l love you still, you know those words
They are ringing a bell inside you, people use them
In movies and movies ain't real, these are words
That were said by the cutest couple, that everybody
Loved a couple that never made it, these are words
That were said by your own enemies, enemies
That bought you flowers and made you happy these are words
that l used when my actions were saying otherwise
In your past you met people, some you left
But l always remained in your heart, this is love
But despite the pain this word can cause, Thank you God
Coz some people never felt this way, i feel it everyday
but I never get tired
