Moon (Freestyle)
I've been talking to the moon
But it doesn't talk back
Think it's something that I did
About five years back
I've been
Tryna get the stars all to listen
But it's
Something 'bout the boys I've been kissing, they don't
Understand where the rainbows went
Where we are going and how much we spent on that
Oh, now then
Could it be that we've got no money so we're spending more something like time
Time and patience and energy
More value than you're gonna pay with
All of these songs you've been waiting for
Waiting for, is it that the
Universe has got us headlocked and we're
Stepping where we ought to not step, but we
Do it anyway, learning lessons that we
Should've learned five years back, but we
Back where we started, the beginning when we
Knew everything anyway but never listened so we're
Tryna hold back, tryna hold back
Love is needed on this planet, it's been bleeding
How's that? How's mother Earth gonna deal with this flack?
Flatline loving, we've been taking it back
Fountains, they be giving everything
So we be taking all the oil and we spill it back, oceans
How's that? How these humans be living
Loving, no giving
Taking, just singing these songs
Songs about theirselves and the people they lust
Songs about the people that they never trust
Trust is an issue that we never really
Dedicate to compensations dearly, we must
Get to know people much better than we do
Cause one day you'll be missing those people you knew
