Amerikou - Asking Lyrics

The plight of a young dreamer
With no lessons on love
Seeing she as something to conquer fighting inner monsters
Hoping that a soul leaves a stain of eternal sacrifice from here to the afterlife
Realizing we are what we seen

Asking you to love me like asking for your soul
Im asking for too much fine print on the loan
Been asking for forgiveness Im the one who got me in this
Hypocrite in the thick it of my children had to witness it
Resented my dad for doing his bid
Funny how the separation just ruins the kids
Now the roles reversed and Im just losing my shit
Out rolling like Im a stone and in my tooth is a pick
No manual on how to handle love and war
Now Im locked out and my lady she only ducking calls
Iggin' texts and my ego big as Texas an my
Eyes burn in the mirror cant take reflection
Sex and temptation trumps love and affection
Now I need a kevlar vest so many years vested
Asking you to love me is asking you to lie
And tell me that I deserve you put a ribbon in the sky
Put kisses on La and Lizzy I look em in the eye
Smoking Runtz Im getting dizzy got bigger fish to fry
Asking you to hold me is putting too much pressure on
Someone who too loyal pain come as a lesson
How did I become the reason for your grieving huh
Thought I was dead end of the thread said you was leaving huh
What are we made of now Im alone laid up
The chances have trickled away she got her mind made up
Hands folded blank stare peers thru me
Pissing away my blessings Im sweating with no jacuzzi
Im losing it all just when I figured I had it figured
Life is in living color you the paint that fill my picture

Asking you to love me is asking you to lie
And tell me that I deserve you put a ribbon in the sky
Asking you to love me is asking you to lie
And tell me that I deserve you put a ribbon in the sky

Made it through the BS again
Ran through bout a check again
Look at the face of my babies
I wont ever stress again
I wont ever leave em lone
I gotta take care of home
I need all my blessings falling

Back in the good graces
I used to be hood famous
F*ck tryna keep good faces
We flawed we all a face it
We all caught in a matrix
We ball blew out them faces
Evaded them tall cages
Baby stay down wit me
New cars we horse racing
You need it we toss paper
We breathing we all made it
Baby spin the town wit me
Beauty personified love in its purest form
Broke up bout a thousand times now we gotta show it to em
Parties at the Aloft see now we gotta Fall through em
Enough of the back and forth
F*ck the rumors stayed a union
And I know
Asking you to love me is asking you to lie to me
I know shit get ugly
Love if you would ride with me
Crack open this bubbly
And open up your driveway
