[Intro: IYAMAH]
Oh
[Verse 1: IYAMAH]
Her eyes always on the other side (Other side)
Standing there at the borderline (Borderline)
Two worlds in her hands, she can't decide (Can't decide)
What's the risk of knowing (Oh), is it worth the sacrifice?
[Pre-Chorus: IYAMAH]
'Cause in the Garden of Eden
Where the fruit falls and the beauty lies (Beauty lies)
Great potential, nothing dies (Oh)
Till deception catches us by surprisе (By surprise)
Could of never anticipatеd (Oh-oh)
You're so free, but stood there naked (Oh-oh)
How vulnerable (Oh-oh)
Can't be too sure what's lingering in the
[Chorus: IYAMAH, Kofi Stone]
Green grass
Where the snakes are
Don't trust your heart (Yeah)
'Cause your heart
Wants to follow the green grass
Where the snakes are (Oh)
Don't trust your heart (Your heart)
'Cause your heart always follows
The green grass (Oh, na-na-na, no)
Wants to follow the green grass (Do-do-do-do-do)
Always follows the green grass (Oh, yeah-yeah)
Wants to follow the green grass (Uh-uh, uh-uh, oh-oh)
[Verse 2: Kofi Stone, IYAMAH, Kofi Stone & IYAMAH]
The grass you thought was green was brown and
Heaven was hell, the preacher's realm, but he's a devil
Look at how he sneaks about
Probably need some receipts when your dreams are found
'Cause when you get it, and it wasn't what you dreamed about
What can you do? Keep your head up from beneath the ground
Esteem withers with the breeze in between the clouds
The demons pounce, nobody's even reaching out
So be careful what you wish for (Wish for)
See I was piss poor (Poor)
It's like they love you, then they runnin' with their pitchforks (Yeah-yeah)
All of a sudden, ain't invited to the big ball (Yeah)
Don't think they get it like a missed call thinkin' I can
Fix the jigsaw, but gettin' puzzled in this big war
Stayin' grounded ain't a big flaw
It's a shame, but you let me explain (Oh)
I know you really wanna kill the game
But listen, your esteem's gonna suffer, means your dreams gonna suffer
If they crowned you the king, there would soon be another (Yeah)
Gotta think twice every word that you utter
Especially 'cause this was your bread and butter
You're blinded by the beams, please you want it by any means
Expect jealousy, brothers will turn green (Oh-oh)
Stress-free, no, it will never be (Oh-oh)
When you got it, everybody want a piece, yo
[Verse 3: IYAMAH]
Oh, and in this garden of perfection (Oh-oh)
You look around and you start to question
Do I really fit into this shell? (Oh-oh)
This heaven is starting to feel like hell
There's forbidden fruit in all directions (Oh-oh)
This wasn't in my imagination (Oh-oh)
Got to lower my expectations
You don't know the
[Chorus: IYAMAH, Kofi Stone]
Green grass
Where the snakes are
Don't trust your heart (Yeah)
'Cause your heart
Wants to follow the green grass
Where the snakes are
Don't trust your heart
'Cause your heart always follows
The green grass (Uh-uh, uh-uh, yeah)
Wants to follow the green grass (Oh)
Always follows the green grass (Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah)
Wants to follow the green grass (Oh-oh, yeah-yeah)
