Warm Enough

Who are you to tell me I'm not warm enough for summertime?
I know that I can decide myself
But you don't know me like the sun you've never seen my horizon

If I was everything I never was
Drugs got me bubbly, suddenly mumbling simile meant to be for you, now
The futile go fishing for moon over roof top
A new style for praying to everything I ever loved
My black boy outer space, looking like a rain child

But, but my body move like the sun
Go run 'til 'em rainbow, we painted it 50 shades of grey
Stones across the lake, the house in the house (house in the house)
Deceptive carnations, our wedding, we announced on Sunday for the holy of it
Solely covet me and you, for you and I, are blissfully tethered to simple redeeming

When sadness gets worse and we don't know why, our city is bleeding for crimson
I don't protest, I just dance in my shadows
Hallow be thy empty
When my name don't sing, shallow waters
Under bridges don't forget 'bout me
Who are you to love me and not call me by my name?
I'm sunny, I'm sunny, just like you, no name (like the sun, like the sun)

Who are you to tell me I can't love you, like the way mothers love daughters?
The way Mary was closest to Joseph, and babies is close to the father
You don't know me and love got a secret hand shake, and mad inside jokes
I could tell it's knock knock when my heart beatbox use our inside voice

Who are you to tell me I don't want you the way flesh wants freedom?
The way greed love need? The way kings need kingdoms?
You don't know what I know, what I'm capable of
What I slaved for and traded in favours
And gave up for you, what I gave up for love

Who are you to tell me I'm not warm enough for summertime?
I know that I can decide myself
But, you don't know me like the sun, you've never seen my horizon

You're like the flower that I won't let die
Right before your petals start to wilt, I choose to give you one last try
Fill your vase up with water, refusin' to neglect you
Like your father, so, I promise that it won't run dry
Good intentions 'cause, I wanna see us both fly
But I often put me first, and I been wonderin' why
I know you probably think you're blessed to have a wonderful guy
And that's the truth but, at the same time, a wonderful lie

'Cause to me, you're a dime and I'm still a nickel
And you know niggas say that every coin got two sides
Well, if you knew both minds, not sure you'd like what you find
I made mistakes, I want to tell you but, can't make up my mind
As I'm writing this I see a red balloon in the sky, and to me that's a sign
Tellin' me that these lines were made to be written, repeatin' in the form of a rhyme
I know the Lord's a forgiver, hope he'll forgive me in time, uh

Who are you to tell me that I'm not warming up for summertime?
I know that I can decide myself
You don't know me like the sun
You-, you-, you've never seen my horizon
