Eden

Yea

Lay me next to an olive tree
That's surrounded by violets and rose petals as far as my eyes can see
Lucid dreaming about the day I go obsolete
Turn my poems to prophesies
Time will tell
The casamigs got my thoughts flooded
Gazed into my eyes, it's obvious that its star studded
Close observations of constellations
Been looking up to heavens faces
I recognize the men of ages
Trying to stir up conversations
To reminisce of my grass roots in my past youth
I've been perching on branches I've grown attached to
Trying to feel the wind beneath my wings, I took a leap of faith
Did the math, it's likely that I'd crash, there is no easy way, yea
Ain't nothing to it but to do it
Bad decisions really put me through it
Really thought that I was ruined
The cathedral in my mind turned to ruins
A rose still arose but I'm running out fluid so I'm

Watering my seeds in the garden of Eden
Digging through mud
Searching for love
Something to bring me back home
Something purer than doves
Something to rid me of
The type of human I was
Got sinners DNA that's been rummaging through my blood
I'm surviving the flood, from watering insecurities
Checking all the above, yea
Push and pulled, didn't matter how hard I shoved
I could only find rest when I'm laying next to a shrub, cause I'm

Watering my seeds
Something to rid me
Searching for the love
Garden of Eden

I wonder how Adam coped
Like how did he recover
What was the antidote
Prolly sick to his stomach
In a place he ain't plan to go
With no one before him to ever show him how to handle the ropes
You see my hands are full
Skimming through this manual searching for the intangibles
Surrounded by these animals, biting flesh like a cannibal
Ptsd for the type of trauma they ran us through
Put a plan together, start locking hands like my grandma do
Praying for better days
A flick of my wrist and I turn my lemons to lemonade
It's bittersweet
Sour apples ain't kin to me
Eventually
I plucked them at the root when I'm pulling weeds
Like pulling teeth, yea
It hurts me to hurt you
The line was printed in the sand, I'm not trying to desert you
It doesn't matter where I land, I'm standing on virtue, here to alert you
With my 10 toes in the ground, I'm knocking this turf loose because I'm

Watering my seeds in the garden of Eden
Digging through mud
Searching for love
Something to bring me back home
Something purer than doves
Something to rid me of the type of human I was
Got sinners DNA that's been rummaging through my blood
I'm surviving the flood, from watering insecurities
Checking all the above, yea
Push and pulled, didn't matter how hard I shoved
I could only find rest when I'm laying next to a shrub, cause I'm

Watering my seeds
Something to rid me
Searching for the love
Garden of Eden

Eden

My momma told me I'd be flawed
But regardless always told me love myself and praise the lord
Never knew what was in store, I paid no mind, couldn't afford
To even press the issue so in turn I pressed record
And fell in love with two things
That's loops and pretty girls with hoop rings
You know the type to make you do things
We called them loose change, yea
Please forgive me, lost my train of thought
You'd be surprised what crosses my mind like this chain I bought
If I could buy more time I would and bring Brianna back, damn
I follow suit with tailored flows cause I ain't trying to slack
Let's have a heart to heart tho
Let's feel the beat, get on tempo even if we start slow, look
Two step in my direction
Pointed out my imperfections and turned them into blessings
Turned my lemons into lemonade, made it an obsession
Bittersweet emotions, the essence of adolescence, look

I emerged from the dirt without a stain on my shirt
That's word to Jigga
I'm in my prime, time after time you know I deliver
Go figure nigga, go figure, aye

I emerged from the dirt without a stain on my shirt
That's word to Jigga
I'm in my prime, time after time you know I deliver
Go figure nigga, go figure, aye
