Lyrics:
i put my hand by yours so you know i wanna hold it.
i say my prayers at night but i know who controls it.
i’m fallin’ hard for you but i know i don’t show it.
i’ll take your love for me but i know i don’t own it.
it’s not gonna be a big production.
it’s not butterflies or fireworks.
said it’s gonna be a tiny garden.
but i’ll feed it everyday. i’ll feed it.
oh and i lead you on.
oh i don’t mean to.
oh and i’m scared to rush.
oh but i need you.
everyday i’ll feed it.
everyday i will. doesn’t matter what you say.
doesn’t matter what your friends say.
somethin’s wrong with the pace.
you fall in love everyday now.
i think of you when i wake.
a premonition of fate.
i put my flaws on display.
to scare you away.
you put your feelings on hold.
winter came and it got cold.
you wanna be sure that i’m sure.
that i want you.
not just someone fun to do.
someone to hold in zero below.
you ask why i’m so cold? i
ceberg heart, but look below.
iceberg heart, but look below…i’m sure.
it’s not gonna be a big production.
it’s not butterflies or fireworks.
said it’s gonna be a tiny garden.
but i’ll feed it everyday. i’ll feed it.
duendita:
water us so we may rise.
deeper in ourselves each night.
listen close and listen right.
don’t wanna bring anything from our past lives. ayiyiyiyiyiiiii.
cyphing the j down yea it’s a vibe.
watch all the purpose we place multiply.
slowly over time.
the seed has all the information.
yea i really wrote a weird verse.
lemme heal first.
then return to the space that we make.
and you know i wake up and i give God His Praise.
for making you.
and making your mom too.
and for making me yea i gotta sing His Name.
i’ma pull up right now and we celebrate.
then he put the pipe down and i’m ok.
so if i’m awkward just let me rock, let me be.
