D.O.G. (Delusions of Grandeur)

You ever meet somebody and while you meet them
You like them, but like
The more they talk, the less you like them
Not because they're a bad person or anything
But because, you know, their love is not for you
Maybe sometimes it just has to go through
Other people, other feelings, other awkward moments
I wrote this song for two

Lovin' Ayanda was a trip
From a teen to a two-step
From a tease to a new friend
From a trait to a loose end
Pure form and a fortress
Pure saint for her portion
Pure sins she was hauling
Daddy died when she called it
Lovin' Ayanda was a trip
Playing God with my own hands
Word to God, got me going in
Getting you, getting close for a kiss
You were rich, I was broke
It would show and for one reason
I condoned it, owned this twinkle of a token, oh dear
Wonder, when you drove in

Red lips, white blouse, makeup, glowing skin
Laceups, good thoughts, good talk, no intent
True love, meant for life
Meant for Christ if you wish
If you pick, if you don't, she'll move on, disappear

For a moment, we were zoned in (For a moment, we were zoning)
She would open, she would moan (She would open, she would moan)
I believed her, I believed in love (For a moment)
For a moment, we were zoned in (We were zoned in)
I would open, I would go there (I would open)
To believe you were (I would go there)
To believe you were the one for me
You weren't the one for me (You weren't, you weren't, you weren't)
I know who you want (Aye)
(I know, I know, I know)
I know who you are (You weren't, you weren't, you weren't)
I know

Lovin' on Lihle was a trip
First sight with the faux feels
First time being roped in
First night we were so led
Foreplay never showed this
Foretaste for the oceans
Four days from a new year
Four games from a new gear
Lovin' on Lihle was a trip
Sweetheart worth a calling
Homemaker worth a garden
Sorry, saying you were lawless
Falling, for another artist
Cautioned, saying you were soaring
Sparring, clearly you were all in
Pillow talking till the morning

Blue shirt, sweatpants, tight a*s, so intense
She's so weird, I like that, despite what it is
Impulse, indulge fireworks if you wish
If you pick, if you don't, she'll move on, disappear

For a moment, we were zoned in (For a moment, we were zoning)
She would open, she would moan (She would open, she would moan)
I believed her, I believed in love (For a moment)
For a moment, we were zoned in (We were zoned in)
I would open, I would go there (I would open)
To believe you were (I would go there)
To believe you were the one for me
You weren't the one for me (You weren't, you weren't, you weren't)
I know who you want (Aye)
(I know, I know, I know)
I know who you are (You weren't, you weren't, you weren't)
I know

I know, no, no, ay
I know, no, no, ay
I know, I know

It's like I want p*ssy points
Playing good guy for the bad girls on set
Like I see deeper thoughts in some iffy girls
In the pretty ones I text
Like I want pretty love
Pretty much for double standards at the braai-stand
Huge head full of nightmares
Soft hands never fight back
Strayed love is crooked as the comments
Never want the troubles of a nice man
Stray lovers said I had it coming
Said you'll find somebody with the right lens
We know what you flaunt
She said you're the worst of the bunch
She said you don't know what you front
You know what you want
My n*gga, you know who you are
You even know how much it costs
For how much it bothers you, aye, aye
You know what you gotta do, wait, wait
For how much it bothers you, aye, aye
You know what you gotta do, aye, aye
For how much it bothers you
You know what you gotta do
For how much it bothers you
You know what you gotta do, do, do
Yeah, yeah-yeah
Yeah, yeah-yeah
Do, do
Do, do
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah
