HEAVY

From a distance you can't tell us apart
Easy mistaking me for you in the dark
Or you for me in the sheets
The sky turns from honeysuckle to peach
Now the difference comes with using our teeth
A euphemism, jaw clenching and
Attention to each small detail
But I can't recall when became the regale
We fail to define the things we want for fear of unrequited
But the appetite explodes when I'm inside you
I give you the benefit of the doubt
And the benefit of my mouth in the
Places you barely dare to think aloud
I ain't too proud to say it
Want you for more than your frame
Have visions of us sharing a name
Desired more than a dark room
And never demanded exposure
See the light, the spitting image of closure and
It ain't over til, you know what these hands be capable of
And these hips can double up as a drug

Heavy be the head that lays on your pillow
Heavy be the heart that beats in your chest
Heavy be the rain that falls through these willows
Tryna find the light in whatever this is
I know that you're scared
But you know that I'm here
Heavy be the head that lays on your pillow
Heavy be the heart that beats in your chest
Heavy be the rain that falls through these willows
Tryna find the light in whatever this is
I know that you're scared
But you know that I'm here
Just know that I'm here

She asks me questions, a quiet interrogation
She watching me zoning out, I keep losing my concentration
Everything is heavy these days, that's what I told her, yeah
Everything is heavy these days
I shift the weight and rush to welcome new calm
Spark the lighter hope the green is a balm
And my palms don't see the value in the stillness all around me
I try keep em busy, rumination feels like drowning
One pill, two pill, three pill, four
Just so I can make it out that door
I lift my eyes to the sky
I lift the voices more important than mine
And importance is for me to define
Don't see the call and decline
We need action, put that silence aside
Fuck this country but my niggas my pride
I keep watching people die
I keep watching people watching people die
It's got me going outta my mind

Heavy be the head that lays on your pillow
Heavy be the heart that beats in your chest
Heavy be the rain that falls through these willows
Tryna find the light in whatever this is
I know that you're scared
But you know that I'm here
Heavy be the head that lays on your pillow
Heavy be the heart that beats in your chest
Heavy be the rain that falls through these willows
Tryna find the light in whatever this is
I know that you're scared
But you know that I'm here
Just know that I'm here
Heavy be the head that lays on your pillow
Heavy be the heart that beats in your chest
Heavy be the rain that falls through these willows
Tryna find the light in whatever this is
I know that you're scared
But you know that I'm here
Just know that I'm here
Heavy be the head that lays on your pillow
Heavy be the heart that beats in your chest
Heavy be the rain that falls through these willows
Tryna find the light in whatever this is
I know that you're scared
But you know that I'm here
Just know that I'm here
