[Verse: Merlyn Wood]
Flash, camera flash, I was baptized
Never, feline, livin' nine lives
Light, my inner light, it was multiplied
By the holy fire of the campfire
When the story really real, then it hit harder
Make a mess, step back, in my head, I'm Harden
Dropped out of college, Momma found a way to stop me
Played guitar 'cause I was six strings away from stardom
It's a drought, I don't even think about the rain
When you play, man, I couldn't feel my love again
It's too late for you to ever hold me close again
Man, my reality just stayed the same

[Chorus: Jabari Manwa]
If I gave you my heart, then would you go away? (Go away)
If you love me then tell me, why would you run away? (Run away)
It's so cold man, and you know it (Know it)
Give up my house and home for you, there ain't no way
If I gave you my all, would I be wrong, mane? (Wrong)
I played the wrong game, put out the wrong frame
[?] longer than the sun is
And yet you know it, but you ain't moving, yo, it ain't no way
