[Verse 1: Jesse Boykins III]
Your insecure extremities
Have led me to believe
In short term everything
You treasure only what you see
I base us on memory
All I remember is you Unhappy
I'm forever reaching without you
To break my faults

[Chorus: Jesse Boykins III]
This is a Matter of The Heart
A Matter of the Soul
Your words sentence us apart
Forcing me to pave this road alone
This is a Matter of The Heart
A Matter of the Soul
Constant Battles Bring us Apart
Forcing me to pave this road alone

[Verse 2: Jesse Boykins III]
Sun Dried Dreams of us stay fresh
Real time feels for worst for less
My dedication seems to be your stress
All my thoughts they stay blessed
All your wild, Like a child
I pacified myself thru your test
A compound of Regrets
[Chorus: Jesse Boykins III]
This is a Matter of The Heart
A Matter of the Soul
Your words sentence us apart
Forcing me to pave this road alone
This is a Matter of The Heart
A Matter of the Soul
Constant Battles Bring us Apart
Forcing me to pave this road alone

[Verse 3: Phonte]
You thinking too late I lost him
Your friends saying "touché divorce him"
And I'm thinking what happen to sink or swim
Until death do us, your so bold
But your heart's gone stone cold Steve Austin
Trying to erase the emotion
In footprints of everywhere I stood, but best believe
If I could be anyone other than myself I would
And I think I should have the right to shed tears about it
But misery is all you love to flaunt
Always telling me I don't know what I have, and I'm always
Telling you, that you don't know what you want
Do you really want to live this or do you want to watch it
Do you want a husband or do you want a hostage
Do you want to settle down and try to reconcile our little matter of the
Heart or have a battle of the artless. let me know
[Chorus: Jesse Boykins III]
This is a Matter of The Heart
A Matter of the Soul
Your words sentence us apart
Forcing me to pave this road alone
This is a Matter of The Heart
A Matter of the Soul
Constant Battles Bring us Apart
Forcing me to pave this road alone
