Enemy, Myself, & I

We were like
Oil and water
Fire and ice
When we got together nothing felt right

Like highways and champagne
Snake eyes and dice
Double vision blurring our sight

Like Jada and Latifah
Blue flames and reefer
We're the match that set it off
Ignite
Only word I leave ya
Onomatopoeia
We went tick tick boom
Dynamite

And I ain't talkin bout you
I'm just talkin bout me
My reflection was confused
With my enemy

We were like
1960s Vietnam
Like Iraq under the rule of Saddam
Caught up in lies that we couldn't escape
We spun a web bigger than any dot com

Spun off track like a CD rom
Squaring off like emcees
Was draining our energy
Nuclear tendencies so
We could only detonate
Atomic bomb

And I ain't talkin bout you
I'm just talkin bout me
My reflection was confused
With my enemy
My enemy

And I ain't talkin bout you
I'm just talkin bout me
My reflection was confused
With my enemy
No more enemy, myself, and I

Gotta learn to leave the past in the past
Though the pain cuts deep like broken glass
And the wounds don't always heal as fast
As we hope they would
Unforgiveness we must release
And try to find some inner peace
We must learn to love

Lord, show me how to love
