lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hours turned into pain
Summer turned into rain
From a different terrain
Feeling like I was left with no cards to deal with
In vain, ashamed all at the same time
And I love you was all I was left to say
I turned it to music, a melody from my brain
As I elevated my vision, to them I'm a regular citizen
I couldn't take the criticism from those who knew I had it
Thoughts turned into cynicism
Revealing villain in him
Ignorance is bliss, so ignoring him was building him
Though far from Will.I.Am, I am forced to push the will in him
I'm driven by the notion of hoping you would notice
My presence in your life, funny you do, but I ain't know it

[Chorus]
We gon' make it to the top if we just grow
All these feelings deep inside we'll never show
It always feels like we've been through this shit before
But we gon' make it to the top if we just grow
Grow
Grow

[Verse 2]
It's funny how the Propellar 3
Was just me thinking "I'm hoping that you remember me"
A time back in '09 when I knew I could hear my soul cry
You had me on a chocolate high, Soul Child, India.Arie
In D-I-V-I-D-E, I was thinking we would never be
All I remembered was conversations we had in high
School, times you would walk by the strip and we would play our hi
You know the one we'd wave real hard until it made us smile
Boy how I thought those times back in the day would never end
Until it did, then later on, thought to myself like "better yet"
I better tell her, and I did, but then I guess it wasn't time
Cause at that time, you had a B.F
But it didn't make me regret
Tracing back to re-step
Started off from step one
Pressing send on all these texts was better than pressing reset
Until you told me I was coming on too strong
Strength has no limit though when your love's unconditional
Wrong

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
J-E-double T-W-O
Cleverly spelling out my name in letters for every flow
Praying my love for you will grow so large
The universe could float
And if your boat is underwater
It's so safe you could still go fishing
I was always told that you would reap all that you sow
So I enstictched my heart by thread and made a coat with it
To show that if you really love something
With excitement, you should go for it
Even in the Spur of the moment, Gregg Popovich
I was just a drummer, you moved to beats of the rhythm
And you would tell my kids that I fell in love with a dancer
If dreams were structured by the reality that we live in
Then I would tell myself that I think God gave me an answer
If real is just a figment of dreams that mirror existence
Then you would tell my kids that I'm who told him he was handsome
If the future is now, we would have to figure out
How we would tell our children we always knew that we had us

[Chorus]
