I wanted to dedicate this song to the lives that have been lost during this pandemic and social injustice battle towards black people. All lives won’t matter until black lives do. This song talks about addiction and how it attaches itself to the artist and also how it effects the way he feels. And although I don’t have an addiction to substances, I realized how many people I’ve attached myself to and how I’ve lost them in some way. I’ve lost so many people in my life that I had great bonds with and during those times I couldn’t ever feel anything. I always felt numb and tried to move forward but things kept happening and it just exploded in my face. In life, we forget to appreciate the littlest things in people and when it’s gone it’s the littlest things that we wish were still there. Come back to earth is a reminder that we can still have some form of hope that things can and will get better through time.

Through drought and famine, natural disasters
My baby has been around for me
Kingdoms have fallen, angels be calling
None of that could ever make me leave
Every time I look into your eyes I see it
You're all I need
Every time I get a bit inside I feel it
Ooh, who could've thought I'd get you
Ooh, who would've thought I'd get you
And when we're making love
Your cries they can be heard from far and wide
It's only the two of us
Everything I need's between those thighs
Every time I look into your eyes I see it
You're all I need
Every time I get a bit inside I feel it
Ooh, who could've thought I'd get you, oh yeah, oh yeah, baby
Ooh, who could've thought I'd get you
And I'll take some time
Just to be thankful
That I had days full of you, you
Before it winds down into the memories, it's all just memories, la, la, la, la, la
Don't you love when I come around (feel something that's right somebody just tell somebody)
Build you up then I take you down (If you've got someone you like)
Don't you love when I come around (feel something that's right somebody just tell somebody)
Build you up then I take
Ooh, who could've thought I'd get you, oh yeah, oh yeah, baby
Ooh, who would've thought I'd get you
This feels like summer
Boy you make me feel so alive
Just be my lover
Boy, you'll lead me to paradise

I had a dream
I got everything I wanted
Not what you'd think
And if I'm being honest
It might've been a nightmare
To anyone who might care
Thought I could fly (fly)
So I stepped off the Golden, mm
Nobody cried (cried, cried, cried, cried)
Nobody even noticed
I saw them standing right there
Kinda thought they might care (might care, might care)
I had a dream
I got everything I wanted
But when I wake up, I see
You with me
And you say, "As long as I'm here
No one can hurt you
Don't wanna lie here
But you can learn to
If I could change
The way that you see yourself
You wouldn't wonder why you hear
They don't deserve you"
I tried to scream
But my head was underwater
They called me weak
Like I'm not just somebody's daughter
Coulda been a nightmare
But it felt like they were right there
And it feels like yesterday was a year ago
But I don't wanna let anybody know
'Cause everybody wants something from me now
And I don't wanna let 'em down
I had a dream
I got everything I wanted
But when I wake up, I see
You with me
And you say, "As long as I'm here
No one can hurt you
Don't wanna lie here
But you can learn to
If I could change
The way that you see yourself
You wouldn't wonder why you hear
They don't deserve you"
If I knew it all then would I do it again?
Would I do it again?
If they knew what they said would go straight to my head
What would they say instead?
If I knew it all then would I do it again?
Would I do it again?
If they knew what they said would go straight to my head
What would they say instead?

day 2

Speak until the dust
Settles in the same specific place
Light refused to go
Drink it from a cast and iron plate
Instead of cold milk
Was offered unripe
Instead of silence
Considered craven
Nothing made it seem
Hidden where the aging soil was pure
Pressed against the crease
Mountains become fragrant at the source
So can you stand this
Exotic angle
I read it somewhere
That they would lie still

I remember how cloth hung
Flexing with the forest clung
Half waist and high raised arms
Kicking at the slightest form
I remember my first love
I remember my first love

Un-relied I was called
Missing teeth out of favor
Nickel beach it was all
Gathering by the sundial
I woke hard
I woke heavy
For the half way stop
Five whole hours in
When I woke hard
I woke heavy with the live or parts

I remember how cloth hung
Flexing with the forest clung
Half waist and high raised arms
Kicking at the slightest form
I remember my first love
I remember my first love
