king

i fell in love with steeze straight out of hip hop's jeans
in the belly of a beast, that's where hip hop sleeps
he lays next to me to meditate mentally
then eventually...
we build up a love that breaks all kinds of chemistry, physics, or any other science you can think of
cuz that's when true love began
and simple friendship switched off
see, i was just a baby
and well, he was already a man
getting ready to cup the world within the palm of his hand
so from then on
he became my reason of dress
the reason why i never get a steady beat coming from my chest
and yes...
that's where he is stationed
and he promised me that that's where he would stay put
i remember one day
i caught him whispering in another lover's ear
talking about, how he could love her for years
so i stop, rewind, and then i get played
and all i can think of was "...hoe."
see he gets around
but its because of him that i learned to be down and
common used to love her
and i still love him
erykah was the love of his life
and to me he's king
but he never bought me flowers or anything bling
cuz i bought that for myself
and thank god i found him cuz he instilled my sense of self
just like what travie said, and i quote
"to me she equaled MC squared and everything else was mathematics
i never took the time to practice"
but i never was a mathematics chump
so me and him, we had a linguistic love
and at age 10, i never planned to fall in love
that's just what instinct does
so i fell in love with steeze straight out of hip hop's jeans
and he'd be my king if only hip hop was a being
