The Truth

Chorus:
Be easy baby
Crawl in these arms
And rest your bones
With me lover
I see the truth in you
So open up your soul to me now

Verse 1:
Let me lace up my kicks
So I can get at you
Spit at you
All night long
Take away your rain
And your blues
Cuz you the leader of the pack
So imma run to you
And I can read you like a book
Every time we watch a scary movie
That’ll get you shook
See you look just like Mariah
So right butterfly
I never seen no one flyer than you
And maybe we can get it in
It can be the two of us
Or we can add your best friend
Naw I’m playin, I’m sayin
I’m a jerk
But every time I talk
About that shit
You get a smirk
Yet still you’re spiritual – Buddah
M.V.P. like a 3 point shooter
School of hard knocks
You made it – Dues
Now relax cuz your man got you

Chorus:
Be easy baby
Crawl in these arms
And rest your bones
With me lover
I see the truth in you
So open up your soul to me now

Chorus:
Be easy baby
Crawl in these arms
And rest your bones
With me lover
I see the truth in you
So open up your soul to me now

Verse 2
Yea it’s me
A poet of the ghetto
Spit rhymes so slick
Half the shit I can’t tell you
See I’m Mr. Nice Guy in town
But you can call me Rude Bwoy
When I put it down
So profound
With my logic
I’m hypnotic
We outta here – Rocket
And you might get sick – Vomit
We on it
Well maybe in a year or so
I’mma buy you fancy things
And take you to the jewelry store
Here we go
Lets just relax and chill
When I sign my first deal
All my dreams’ll come real
See, me and you that’s coincidental
Met your ass last last year
Feel like it’s been forever
And since you always keep your mind clear
Write all of this from memory
Like we already been tight
I got you for life – Priceless
You kinda like a diety
Outerspace – Isis

Chorus:
Be easy baby
Crawl in these arms
And rest your bones
With me lover
I see the truth in you
So open up your soul to me now

Bridge:
So I can see you
When the sun rises
Over the horizon
And we
Could wet our feet
In the morning dew
As free as that yea
And a matter of fact
This is all spontaneous
So we ain’t gotta rush
While we letting love
Take over us
And I would learn
All your quirky ways
And little things about you
If you promise
That you’ll get me back
Like that

Chorus:
Be easy baby
Crawl in these arms
And rest your bones
With me lover
I see the truth in you
So open up your soul to me now (X2)
…be easy baby
