Real Love
Mama says I care too much
'Bout how she sees me, perceives me
She's right n' I don't care enough
Bout what I'm needin', feelin'
I was never puttin' me first
Even my selfish days leave me burnt
Always find a way to give too much
No such thing with the gift of love, (but)
Been giving love not receiving
Give love, don't receive it
No reciprocity it got to me (bothers me)
Real love is what I'm needing
I been single for good reason
Had internal work to do, yeah
It has lasted many seasons
Worth the hurtin' too yeah
See my therapist, weekly...
Met at Harvard so we Skype now
Been a struggle but believe me
After years of healing, I'm hype now
Worked so hard to be the man I am
Put my soul on display for you
Sound a little proud? That I am
Cause I found the me that's made for you
Feeling real close (real close)
To my soulmate (soulmate)
God my witness, feels close
My forever love, and always
Where we give and receive it
Give love and receive it
Reciprocity, monogamy
Real love is what I'm needing
Put it all in these songs here
Music tells me "you belong here"
You'd be shocked how rare that feeling is
This my only home, it really is...
Oh that's not a diss to family
Not a diss to friends no
No inhibition, no vanity
This love isn't for the friend zone
See this type of love I love with
Make you swear I'm in my feelings
But It's a default that I'm stuck with
Im not in 'em I'm just feelin'
Feelin' real close (real close)
To my soulmate (soulmate)
God my witness, feels close
My forever love and always
Where we give and receive it
Give love and receive it
Reciprocity, monogamy
Real love is what I'm needin'
Got a crush on you (crush on you)
A lil' crush on you
Hope you blush... I do
I won't rush, oh no
'Bout how she sees me, perceives me
She's right n' I don't care enough
Bout what I'm needin', feelin'
I was never puttin' me first
Even my selfish days leave me burnt
Always find a way to give too much
No such thing with the gift of love, (but)
Been giving love not receiving
Give love, don't receive it
No reciprocity it got to me (bothers me)
Real love is what I'm needing
