Eshon Burgundy
Sand Castles
[Intro]
Please don't do this to me (I don't do this to me)
Please don't do this to me, me
One, two
[Chorus: Sean C. Johnson]
If you don’t mind
I would like to play this cool
'Cause I don’t wanna lose track
Let your words take me where pride won’t let go
'Cause I been building castles in the sand for so long
And you know it crumbles, crumbles
[Verse 1: Eshon Burgundy]
Yeah
Everything that you telling me should be a felony
'Cause you killing me
All my strength and ability
The way I'm redesigned is nothing without humility
Hit the refine button if you ever notice that I'm stunting
Showboating and bragging ain't really what's happening
No concept of gravity
Feelin above average
'Cause you keep sayin I'm the man
I try to play it off but then start feeling like I am
You keep engaging my vanity
A thin line between that and my sanity
I pen lines to penetrate
Each statement is a dinner plate
Eat it
It's no secret that Jesus is an interface and
I'ma inmate in the prison of me
Tryna cop a plea
Bargain
You know I'm from where the heat sparking
That's why I run up on these beats talking street jargon
I know my fraudulent ego tryna get at me
And you, you tryna gas me
Please miss me with the flattery now
[Chorus: Sean C. Johnson]
If you don’t mind
I would like to play this cool
'Cause I don’t wanna lose track
Let your words take me where pride won’t let go
'Cause I been building castles in the sand for so long
And you know it crumbles, crumbles
[Verse 2: Eshon Burgundy]
Yeah, yeah
Let me use being modest to justify this
No doubt I'm polished and my flow is a bit stylish
I know I'm unworthy to even sip the chalice
I've been known to wreck it
Make a record skip under the stylus
I'm clumsy
I fumble, I'm not too good with money
I got a temper
But I temper it with jokes and being funny
Put a diamond on my wife hand
With the hope that she would love me
And trust me with her heart again after treating her ugly
And she did
'Cause she is an angel in the flesh
Gotta couple dollars left
If you wanna make a bet
See I'm gambling
My nature's underhanded, let's face it
The only replacement is the Son of man
I'm shapeless and void
So all your statements, man, I'm trying to avoid
The Father is supplying all my honor and joy
So putting Dolce and Gabbana on your words
And then serving them to me is worthless
Because that’s something that I don't prefer to eat
Keep it a hundred with me
[Chorus: Sean C. Johnson]
If you don’t mind
I would like to play this cool
'Cause I don’t wanna lose track
Let your words take me where pride won’t let go
'Cause I been building castles in the sand for so long
And you know it crumbles, crumbles
