[Intro]
We learnt to love ourselves until we were full
Until we did not need yours
Until we realised our own was enough
We will not apologise for being the night sky
Black and broken and beautiful
Our own type of constellation
Don't you know light lives in dark places too?
[Verse 1: Knucks]
Yo (Juls baby)
I ain't even gonna lie
I need you on the sly
But feelings get tekky when i'm dealing with my pride
All the things you said were trying to lead me to your mind
But to really see the signs I had to read between the lines
Our ting runs deep they ain't gonna understand it
And they don't know I see their compliments are underhanded
Now mandem moved all mad all over sudden don't wanna panic
Coz i'm coming for your back like I ain't gonna fuckin' have it
Subtle but erratic, it's only coz of you though
I ain't even plan it had to rule it out like pluto
Got me staying static just to guarantee that you grow
And you know this shit's the truth
Coz unlike your bredrins I ain't telling
[Chorus: XamVolo]
No lie, I need what's precious to you
Comfort in your darkness beauty humble me too, no lie
Show me my journey's in vain
Run fingers through your history and learn my real name, no lie
Onsite, each day
Took me way too long to understand what got me, no lie
No lie, each day
Run fingers through your history and learn my real name, no lie
[Verse 2: Che Lingo]
I don't see mother nature in the landscape
Portrait of my history
Could never let them paint a portrait into your dynasty
There's wisdom in your majesty and mystery
God is a black woman and the universe is part of her infinity
Supple at the soil of the earth you gave birth to
Honey in your heart it's golden and full of virtue
Last of the flowers to blossom but you're the first through
Blackest of the berries I vow to never desert
Your generational love (your generational love)
So I never felt more safe than when I was placed in her bust
She healed the hate with a hug mama walking without soul
But you recognise the touch when you feel the rays of the sun (feel the rays of the sun)
[Outro: XamVolo]
Sweet Lord, God just don't see no flaws
Kindness 'til she came to the door
Honest i'll forever be yours
Teach me, how to love like you love yourself
Coz I see no evil speak none too around you I don't see nothing else, no lie
Sweet Lord, God just don't see no flaws
Kindness 'til she came to the door
Honest i'll forever be yours
Teach me, how to love like you love yourself
Coz I see no evil speak none too around you I don't see nothing else, no lie
