about

Rob made this beat during a beat session with Queso (not the cheese, rather a friend of ours) and Jude Bailey - as I understand it , this was more of a watching session though. It seems that when Rob got into the process he lost all other focus and went in full steam. This is the first beat that Rob ever provided me to that had a sample before I wrote it; it kind of gave me a direction. I forget the woman’s name as of right now having woke up to put the finishing touches on something that should’ve been done a long time ago, and find I am rather sleepy. Any way… She speaks on relationships, or moreover the satisfaction of a relationship- but understanding first that the relationship was not necessary for satisfaction, this is a feeling that comes from within us - and it was so thought provoking I had to give some time to consider the ideas before actually writing them. I think you will find that the concepts are bright and very fulfilling; its one of my favorite songs to date and I hope it finds a place in your life.

lyrics

Chorus
2x
Nuthin' feels better / than rocking with you / making a choice for love instead of logical moves / then hearing my kids / sunlight kissing my skin / and sleeping on my mama’s sofa again
Verse 1
Than the first time you saw her / or a tall drink of water when it's hot outside / and realizing that it's not our time / but we fought the good fight and we tried / and baby that’s alright / now fly and the first breath of air that you finally breath / breath deep and taste the fruits that’s lining the tree / you are who you been dying to be / and that’s a beautiful thing / in a world that seems caustic / trails can never be happy so long as wants got you boxed in / feelings never listed in the options / but you bought it / and you bought it for the feeling / and she held you for the feeling / fishing to find complete so the universe was reeled in / cold hearts turn thick leather to steel skin / loves inside the bottle not poured from the can / night beaches and the sand between ocean and man - we were LIVING!

Chorus
2x
Nuthin' feels better / than rocking with you / making a choice for love instead of logical moves / then hearing my kids / sunlight kissing my skin / and sleeping on my mama’s sofa again

Verse 2
Than giving your all / trying to fly risking a fall / finding a cause and getting involved / that first cool breeze at the beginning of fall / pressing rewind at the end of this song / and knowing / that you’re almost there / but you were always here the future only seems rare / you’ll never peel a pear and reveal the taste of apples / a castle could be a home and a home could be a vacuum / but wheres the heart / tell the truth and ask you / broken guarded tender and feeling fragile / smiles are like the rain in the spring of twenty-ten / in the kingdom of the son would they ever come again / no one knew the answer but believed it deep within / so believe for you and please for me / that you’re beautiful and everything you need to be / and you never needed a boat because you are the sea / You’re LIVING!

Chorus
2x
Nuthin' feels better / than rocking with you / making a choice for love instead of logical moves / then hearing my kids / sunlight kissing my skin / and sleeping on my mama’s sofa again

Verse 3
Then only now / Hindus and “Holy Cow”s / watching batman and robin and being an only child / finding soul cypher / ever since the village holds me down / watching vinyls spin round and round / amazed at the needle digging into the sound / making my mama proud and finishing new songs / and drinking milkshakes by sipping with two straws / andy cap fries an ice and juice box / kicking raps for me and watching them work for you / breaking through the chains of emotional servitude / I feel I’m a pioneer but I wasn’t the first to move / on my pilgrimage start and I finish it / heart start to tick again / with scars and blemishes / tasting infinite flavor its hard to reminisce / love war and pain are bound to happen again / but I’m living!
