All I can do is cry for you , lie for you ... gimme a mic, I'd rhyme for you
Poetry come to life through Backpacker Hip-Hop
Story behind the song
Oh the memories plauge us dearly , When will it end , When will I just .... drop it
Lyrics
All I can do is cry for you ,
Lie for you ,
Gimme a mic ... I'd rhyme for you
I'd buy for you the finest foods
In the world
To dine with you ,
Drink wine with you
Appreciate the better things ,
I'm tryin to prove ,
That shining jewels
Would look like coal ,
By just a smile from you
It lights the sky
Bright shining high ,
Got the sun jealous
When your smile would shine
Why ... did you wanna walk that path
Coulda been together just to talk and laugh
Walk or dance ,
Pause or glance ,
And let romance take it's chance
And break the past ...
Break the shackles that lock me down
Chase the jackals that stalk me down ,
Make the echos fade softly now ...
Force me down ...
Hoarsely now ... my voice speaks out
Cuz most leave out the details ,
These tales are detailed to leave trails of deep spells
Or these hell-bound listeners to kiss and then twist the picture
Enlist the scriptures
To teach the lesson ,
I'm here confessin ...
Bless me ,
Arrest me ,
Detain the pain ,
Derobe undress me ...
Reveal the bare truth ,
In J's booth ,
Remains roots to rain the plain truth ..
Put it together , I should just tell you ...
All I can do , is say bye to you
I've lied for you ,
Attempted suicide cause you ,
Turned your back to me ,
It's like a slap to me ,
Pain with nothing to gain ,
Attacking beats I'm drastically ,
Trying to accept it all passively
But I have to see
You one more time , just to remember the way
Remember your face ... holding on to remember those days ..
When you would laugh with me ,
Trade jokes and chat with me ,
Pass notes through the crowds ... no one had to see ,
Now you're askin me , to swallow my pride ,
Forget how you were my life ,
So instead I just cry for thee .
To the one I promised everything
For you I would die ,
Now with a pen in my hand ,
I drink for you and I cry .
