Respectfully Toxic

I can't tell you how to feel

I'm down for it all, but if love gets involved
That's where we gotta drop it
I had to let you know, so I don't lead you on
Cause I promise you'll be lost quick
Some see it as respect, while others call it toxic
I can't tell you how to feel
But at least you know the deal, It's not for everybody

Straight out the south side of the H
Territory spread like outer space
They be tryna keep me in my place
Hatin' from afar, but when it's go time
Talk stops before it, reach my face a silent gold is still a first place
Everyone dealt with it in a way
Now my voice heard and ain't a single color changed
Pull up and see the red around they face
Almost thought they snuck me with some mace
My 20-15 vision clear as day
They nerve up like meeting parents on first date
Full of shit, but they ain't seen a plate, but still act like they ate until they ached
Pounds of the lobster and the steak
But words still barely carry any weight
What's the word, please tell me what's the wait
Stalling on a time and a place
I'm the only one who pinning dates and bank on a response, but never chase
Still see blues and greens but barely gray
You way too dry for me the way you flake
See me and my skin is steady glowing
Iconic written on me like a poem
Melinated 3C 4A flowing product made this weight slip off my shoulders
Squatters steady tryna turn to homies but used to laugh and treat me like the homeless
Now I'm on go, I'm seeing home less
First I'm seeing pros of being lonely
Woke up, checked the mirror in the morning
Feels great to add more chapters to the story

I'm down for it all, but if love gets involved
That's where we gotta drop it
I had to let you know, so I don't lead you on
Cause I promise you'll be lost quick
Some see it as respect, while others call it toxic
Could you at least call me back
I can't tell you how to feel
But at least you know the deal, It's not for everybody
