lyrics

I wanna tell you that I’m here for you
Can’t help but care for you
I wanna tell you everything that you already know
Like how this world keeps getting darker farther from your glow
Like how this world Is laced with empty promises
And I dunno how much it helps if we acknowledge it
I wanna tell you everything you are and more


Ain’t it funny how things go, make a blueprint that fits till we change clothes
Make a life plan to stick to then implode
Build a cage around a flower just to watch it die slow
Ugh
I got a love to protect at all costs
But I wouldn’t even be here were it not for love lost
Who are we to decide if we know or not
If we really doomed to die in this melting pot
Whether we rise or rot imma stick around
Town cause the sparkle in your eyes makes it worth it
Have me staying up at night dreaming bout your brown skin gleaming while you smiling at me swear I don’t deserve it
Gotta say that perfect doesn’t suit you
It could never you justice
But really all I need is just this
A moment of your time for me to waste
As I rhyme my hearts riddles through this cyber space
As I sanctify similes that only touch the surface of your melody that remedy
For all of life’s afflictions
That purple mess , always stressed and best-dressed - and you lying on my chest swear that my only addiction - I’m
Terrified I’m gonna drop this diamond
And if it ever falls I know you’ll keep on shining
And I can’t guarantee that this is perfect timing
But it’s right right now , and that’s the reason that I’m smiling

And I’m here for you
Can’t help but care for you
So I can tell you everything that you already know
Like how this world keeps getting darker farther from your glow
Like how this world Is filled with empty promises
And I don't really think it helps if we acknowledge it
I wanna tell you everything you are and more

Everything you are
And more
everything you are
And more


I know you spent some time in life trying to dictate your path
Like what a pisstake to make a mistake when given the chance
But it’s a lack of planning spanning over generations , warlines and nations that’s got us here, right here to this moment
And I swear from what I see
our fear the only opponent
Seldom scary when you're near me you got my healing component
Taught me everyone’s got flaws in them we just gotta own it
N’ compassion can’t corrupt you no I swear I won’t condone it
No I swear I won’t allow it
You say I’m too neurotic
And when I get up in my mental
I get borderline robotic
I try and stop it or drop it so it won’t consume me
But the fear still burns unruly
Truly
Im
Doing my best to love myself I swear we all are
Uh - Keepin my patience ‘case I jump the gun and fall hard
But even a false start
couldn’t deter my drive
Cause This naivety will breathe in me as long as I’m alive

And
im here for you
Can’t help but care for you
I wanna be the one you hate and you complain about
Then turn around and tell me I’m who you cant live without
That brings some beauty out of all this bullshit
And when your heart is broken know I’m there wid a toolkit uh
I wanna show you everything I am and more
I wanna show you
