Illogic
Chiseled Masterpiece (Man Ain’t Supposed To Cry Mix)
[Sample]
(Now she is gone, my heart is yearning)
(Her love is cold, but mine keeps burning)
(How mine eyes can weep, but I gotta keep them dry)
('cause a man ain't supposed to cry)

[Verse 1: Illogic]
She’s a temptress, exotic mistress, unknown origin
She’s molded with purpose, perfectly proportioned
She’s chiseled masterpiece from head to tippy toe
She’s energy embodied easily, I eased in slow
She’s soft talks, coffee sips under moonlit sky
She’s long walks and foreign trips that slipped my mind
She’s but a moment in time, a precious grain of sand I held in my hand then after the wind, hard to find
A mere memory, my thoughts won’t escape
She’s love tempting me to recycle mistakes
She’s a dove with clipped wings
She’s an example of potential untapped and lost in the song she sings
Only an ink blot on the page
She's precious poems penned and personified on stage
She’s dark eyes, dark skin and dark hair
She’s all lies, I fell prey to the petrified stare
A lost chapter of the book
I only gave a piece of my heart, the rest she took
She’s deceptive, trust, used lust as a spear
She’s manipulative whispers that still pierce my inner ear
She’s fear bled, each tear shed, I hear splash
She’s near death and still yet, she just laughs
She’s politics, religion, the other half
She’s obvious, all her predictions they came to pass
A yesterday that echoed
She’s wilted rose petal, I need to let go
A tomorrow that died, she’s life to me, the living history I cried
[Sound bite: Illogic]
(yo, [?], man, it's like nothing's the same, you know, since, since, since she left me, it's like, it's like I can't think, it's like I don't even wanna live)

[Sample]
(Now she is gone, my heart is yearning)
(Her love is cold, but mine keeps burning)
(How mine eyes can weep, but I gotta keep them dry)
('cause a man ain't supposed to cry)
(The days are long, the nights are madness)
(Where there was joy, now there is sadness)
(Torment and despair, they refuse to pass me by)
(And a man ain't supposed to cry)

[Verse 2: Illogic]
She’s beauty beyond bounds
She’s open windows, spring breeze
Wind chime rings, a site beyond sound
She’s bee stings and honey comb drippings
She’s sweet poison posing apocalypse I’ll die kissing
She’s lipstick laced lollipop love I can’t reach
She's misplaced keys to a class I can’t teach
She’s picnics and sunbeam showers for hours
She’s incense in some dreams, her sin flowers
She’s power and sacrifice after life she lives
A lantern of dimming light they never like to give
She’s pretentious acorn with trapped oak tree
She’s prison bars for the many stars her hands are holding
She’s love that lost its tongue
She silenced the branch fate sadly hung lifeless from
She lives sexy and sweats clever
She’s jigsaw-measured so it’s better we don’t fit together
She’s mother-figured, we held hands then cross streets
Expensive words and cheap sentences bought sleep
She’s a shadow with staff to herd sheep
She’s grass-is-greener demeanor no matter the score she keeps
A yesterday that echoed
She’s wilted rose petal, I need to let go
A tomorrow that died, she’s life to me, the living history I cried
[Sound bite 2: Illogic]
(Man, I cried too many rivers over this girl, I'm done, now I built a bridge to walk over the river now)
