O Heaven - Blu & Exile/Blu.mp3

[00:01.14]O, Heaven
[00:02.58]How could I forget you?
[00:03.94]Rose to the occasion one day
[00:05.51]Plucking petals
[00:06.63]Stole something precious
[00:08.07]Should've been the way I left you
[00:09.14]But no matter what's changed
[00:10.39]Sustain
[00:11.07]Be the best you
[00:12.22]The rest grew restless as cousin's sleep
[00:14.68]Wanted peace but the search wasn't deep
[00:17.34]I invest in my week
[00:18.23]To see a brighter Monday morn', but
[00:19.95]Woke up on Tuesday in the same uniform
[00:22.36]And through it all I try not to do you wrong
[00:25.20]As I have in the past
[00:26.30]Rapping other love songs
[00:27.61]But it's kinda hard
[00:29.04]Building lust when your trust gone
[00:30.87]Money was the object of affect-
[00:32.70]They ain't want John
[00:33.82]Should've gone with my first love
[00:35.39]Maybe moved out to Vigo and wrote books in cursive
[00:38.68]Learned a little French and do the film I've been tryna make
[00:41.16]And translate the feeling I was feeling at my modern-day
[00:44.27]Took a break with the wiz
[00:46.00]Gave the rhymes a break
[00:47.07]Busted hard enough to make the condom break
[00:49.65]No seeds, no sticks, no stems
[00:51.56]Old gems found crumbled by the bubble-goose and Timbs
[00:54.80]I can hear the hymns
[00:55.87]And the choirs from the pews where
[00:57.26]Mom sat listening to Sunday's blues
[00:59.40]In the scuffed penny loafs that I stuffed a nickel into
[01:02.48]All-white Easter suit that won't fit you
[01:05.48]Sent through Heaven to Hell to sell dreams of
[01:07.94]Places once dwelled
[01:09.14]But I fell for the green stuff
[01:10.55]Swore I could fly back and say hi again
[01:13.16]But my money was no good
[01:14.57]I needed time to spend
[01:16.27]Brought me back to my youth when I was grinding with no loot
[01:19.25]Book full of rhymes with the gold tooth
[01:21.37]With the scripture engraved
[01:23.38]Over a picture of the days
[01:24.34]When I dreamt of being richer
[01:25.86]Liquor pours
[01:27.04]From the picture to the glass house
[01:28.79]Built for looking to remember the soul once 'membered: gone
[01:32.42]Gotta find it in her
[01:33.49]And we happily concur
[01:35.60]Ever after
[01:36.75]One blur
[01:37.35]Marry matching, one word: love
[01:40.36]Found crumpled in notebooks you never saw
[01:42.97]Belittled thoughts and yada-yada
[01:44.95]Drama side, my
[01:46.52]Traumatized by, um
[01:47.83]Falling off in the water
[01:49.68]Which was softer than the ground-level
[01:51.75]Found holding soul of daisies without petals
[01:55.27]How special
[01:56.24]Oh heaven, how could I forget you
[02:00.05]My dedication to the muses
[02:02.43]
[02:03.27]Love, love, my love
[02:03.76]Heaven, heaven above
[02:04.34]All that it once was
[02:06.35]Stars lost and found us
[02:09.14]Time, time goes by
[02:11.50]Smiles, smiles that cry
[02:14.45]Love, love, my love
[02:17.03]Heaven, heaven above
[02:19.80]All that it once was
[02:22.49]Smiles kisses and hugs
[02:25.00]Child misses that drug
[02:28.14]Love, love, my love
