Daniel Caesar - Freudian Album Lyrics



Daniel Caesar - Freudian Lyrics






Get You

Through drought and famine, natural disasters
My baby has been around for me
Kingdoms have fallen, angels be calling
None of that could ever make me leave
Every time I look into your eyes, I see it
You're all I need
Every time I get a bit inside, I feel it

Ooh, who would've thought I'd get you?
Ooh, who would've thought I'd get you?

And when we're makin' love
Your cries, they can be heard from far and wide
It's only the two of us
Everything I need's between those thighs
Every time I look into your eyes, I see it
You're all I need
Every time I get a bit inside, I feel it

Ooh, who would've thought I'd get you?
Oh yeah, oh yeah, babe
Ooh, who would've thought I'd get you?

And I'll take some time
Just to be thankful
That I had days full of you, you
Before it winds down into the memories
It's all just memories now

(If you've got someone you like)
Don't you love when I come around (feel something that's right)
(Somebody, just tell somebody)
Build you up then I take you down
(If you've got someone you like)
Don't you love when I come around (feel something that's right)
(Somebody, just tell somebody)
Build you up then I take

Ooh, who would've thought I'd get you?
Oh yeah, oh yeah, babe
Ooh, who would've thought I'd get you?

This feels like summer
Boy, you make me feel so alive
Just be my lover
Boy, you'll lead me to paradise

Best Part

(feat. H.E.R.)

[H.E.R.]
Oh, ey

You don't know babe
When you hold me
And kiss me slowly
It's the sweetest thing
And it don't change
If I had it my way
You would know that you are

You're the coffee that I need in the morning
You're my sunshine in the rain when it's pouring
Won't you give yourself to me
Give it all, oh

[Chorus: H.E.R. & Daniel Caesar]
I just wanna see
I just wanna see how beautiful you are
You know that I see it
I know you're a star
Where you go I'll follow
No matter how far
If life is a movie
Oh you're the best part, oh
Then You're the best part, ooh
You're the best part

[Daniel Caesar]
It's this sunrise
And those brown eyes, yes
You're the one that I desire
When we wake up
And then we make love
It makes me feel so nice

You're my water when I'm stuck in the desert
You're the Tylenol I take when my head hurts
You're the sunshine on my life

[Daniel Caesar & H.E.R.]
I just wanna see how beautiful you are
You know that I see it
I know you're a star
Where you go I'll follow
No matter how far
If life is a movie
Then you're the best part, oh
You're the best part, ooh
You're the best part

If you love me won't you say something
If you love me won't you
Won't you
If you love me won't you say something
If you love me won't you
Love me, won't you
If you love me won't you say something
If you love me won't you
If you love me won't you say something
If you love me won't you
Love me, won't you
If you love me won't you say something
If you love me won't you
If you love me won't you say something
If you love me won't you
Love me, won't you

Hold Me Down

(Could you, could you say, uh, "I love you, Danny"?)
(You want me to?)
(Could you?)
(I love you, Danny)

If you love me, baby, let me hear you say it
I know I'm your favorite
First you love me, then you leave me in the basement
I know I'm your favorite
If you love me, baby, let me hear you say it
I know I'm your favorite
First you love me, then you leave me on the pavement
I know I'm your favorite

I got this girl, she's makin' me crazy
I nearly let her have all my babies
So good, it sets me on fire
I leave myself, I elevate higher
You're fly, girl, but you're headed to maybe
I'll take the time, treat you like a lady, yeah
My life's a spectacle, a sad story
Perhaps I'll find my way to the glory, yes

I'm the one that took you to higher heights
That's all I was tryin' to do
I know you had your dreams of a better life
This time we ain't makin' it through

If you love me, baby, let me hear you say it
I know I'm your favorite
First you love me, then you leave me in the basement
I know I'm your favorite
If you love me, baby, let me hear you say it
I know I'm your favorite
First you love me, then you leave me on the pavement
I know I'm your favorite

You're getting on a plane
And travelling far away
You've left me with the pain
I carry it every day
Who do you think you are?
Some kind of celebrity?
Just wait and see

I never asked for much, only that you stay true
Need I remind you all the things I do for you?
Who can I blame? I played the game, well just for now
I was wonderin', can you hold me down?
I was wonderin', can you hold me down?

Neu Roses (Transgressor’s Song)

There are times I think about that fateful day
I threw your love away
Every time I see that look upon your face
The same one that you made
When your fragile world was crashing down around you
You realized your place
And the darkness that you try so hard to subdue
It causes you to change
But baby, baby, please don't leave me (Please don't leave me)
I know I made a big mistake, don't turn my sunshine to shade
Baby, please don't leave me (Please don't leave me)
I know this is a game we play
You're always taking my breath away
Should've left you a long time ago
All my niggas done told me so
But my niggas don't hold me tight
When I'm sleeping in my bed at night, only you
Should've left you a long time ago
All my niggas done told me so
But my niggas don't hold me tight
When I'm sleeping in my bed at night, only you
Babe, I know I f*cked up
F*cked with some empty cups
But you got your friends too
But you got your friends too
Better believe it, in
Truth I'm up on my luck, can't stop running amok
But you got your friends too
But you got your friends too

Loose

If you ever start to wonder
Why all the rain and all the thunder
Follows her around
You better cut that girl loose
Most of time, everything's fine
But as soon as she starts to whine
If you have no patience
You better cut that girl loose
What are you, a coward?
Who are you helping?
You got the power
Then do it yourself, king
And do it for her
You better cut that girl loose, ah
Set her free, let her be

Leave her be
Oh, yes

You don't love me anymore
Let's see how you like this song
See you walkin' out the door
Wonder why it took you so long
Ever since the day that I met you
Knew you were the girl of my dreams
But we could never be

(Hello?)
(Yeah, sorry, I was just getting everything)
(Thank you, I'll be outside)
(Sorry, I was actually just gonna take my phone)
Take it
(So write down any phone number if you need it)

We Find Love

You don't love me anymore
Let's see how you like this song
See you walking out that door
Wonder why it took you so long

Ever since the day that I met you
I knew you were the girl of my dreams
But we could never be

You don't love me anymore
Let's see how you like this song

We find love, we get up
Then we fall down, we give up
We find love, we get up
Then we fall down, we give up

You don't love me anymore
Let's see how you like this song
You need someone you adore
Find a place where you might belong

Ever since the day that I met you
My world's been spinning out of control
I just need you to hold

We knew it'd come around
This thing called love comes crashing down, ah
Pieces all on the ground
What once was lost cannot be found, ah
We knew it'd come around (we find love)
This thing called love comes crashing down, ah (we get up)
Pieces all on the ground (then we fall down)
What once was lost cannot be found, ah (we give up)
We knew it'd come around (we find love)
This thing called love comes crashing down, ah (we get up)
Pieces all on the ground (then we fall down)
What once was lost cannot be found, ah (we give up)

Heaven help us, heaven help us, yeah
We're on our own

We find love, we get up
Then we fall down, we give up
We find love, we get up
Then we fall down, we give up
We find love, we get up, yeah
Then we fall down, we give up
We find love, yeah, we get up
We fall down, we give up

Blessed

Everywhere that I go
Everywhere that I be
If you are not surrounding me
With your energy
I don't wanna be there
Don't wanna be anywhere
Any place that I can't feel you
I just wanna be near you

And yes, I'm a mess
But I'm blessed to be stuck with you, oh
Sometimes it gets unhealthy
We can't be by ourselves, we
We'll always need each other
Yes, I'm a mess
But I'm blessed to be stuck with you
I just want you to know that
If I could, I swear I'd go back
Make everything all better, whoa

It's the things that you say
It's the way that you prey
Prey on my insecurities
I know you're feeling me
I know sometimes I do wrong
But hear the words of this song
When I go, I don't stay gone for long
Don't know what's going on

And yes, I'm a mess
But I'm blessed to be stuck with you, oh
Sometimes it gets unhealthy
We can't be by ourselves, we
We'll always need each other
And yes, I'm a mess but I'm blessed
To be stuck with you
I just want you to know that
If I could, I swear I'd go back
Make everything all better, whoa

And I'm comin' back home to you
And I'm comin' back home to you
I'm comin' back home
I'm comin' back home to you
I'm comin' back home
I'm comin' back home to you
I'm comin' back home
I'm comin' back home to you
I'm comin' back home
I'm comin' back home to you
I'm comin' back home
I'm comin' back home to you
I'm comin' back home

And yes, I'm a mess
But I'm blessed to be stuck with you
Sometimes it gets unhealthy
We can't be by ourselves, we
We'll always need each other
And yes, I'm a mess
But I'm blessed to be stuck with you
I just want you to know that
If I could, I swear I'd go back
Make everything all better, whoa

Take Me Away

Now it's time to sit back and enjoy creation
See what Jah has done
Every time she tops me off, it's celebration, yeah
What has life become?
And we don't talk too much
Could this be a strange new love I've got
Plus she's always got that loud pack
Inspiration for this soundtrack
Every time she throws that ass back
All she say is

Take me away
Take me away
Take me away
Take me away

Every time I go inside of your protected
Place with reverence
I'm reminded of a time I was neglected
It seems you're heaven sent
She loves to top me off
She's cut from the finest cloth, my love
Plus, we like to take it easy
All she wants to do is please me
Every time I'm on that TV, calls me up, says

Take me away
Take me away
Take me away (won't you please take me away baby, 'way baby?)
(Won't you please take me away?)
Take me away (I like the way you say my name baby, name baby)
(Won't you please take me away?)
Take me away
Take me away

Wherever you go, just take me, take me, take me
Would you take (take me) (take me, baby)
Take (take me away)
Want you to take me away, take me away (take me)
Take me away, take me away, babe
If it's the last thing
Want you to take me away, take me away (take me)
Take me away, take me away, babe
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Take me

Transform

If a leopard never changes its spots
How can I change what I've got?
Transform, transform, transform, transform
We don't punish the tiger for catchin' its prey
So how am I the one to blame
If it's in my nature?
Transform, transform, transform, transform

And I don't know why I fight it
The least I could do is try it
But ego's in the way
I know that you feel mad today
But that anger will fade away
And you'll wish she was here

It's never over until life ends
Lay down beside me, do it again
It's never over until life ends, yeah
Lay down beside

Don't be a fool, baby, I know you've changed
It's in my nature and it's okay, it's okay
And I'll be your goddess and you a part of me, yeah
Lay down your pride, lay down with me

So ugly but you love me
Keep nobody else above me
And that's why I keep you around
Ain't it funny, now you're money
Act like you don't know nobody
What goes 'round gon' come back around

It's never over until life ends
Lay down beside me, do it again
It's never over until life ends, yeah
Lay down beside

You're my violet in the sun
You're the chosen one
You're my violet in the sun
You're the chosen one
Can't quit you, you're like drugs
Swear I tried to clean up
Too much shared between us
Saved my soul like Jesus
Can't quit you, you're like drugs
Swear I tried to clean up
Too much shared between us
Saved my soul like Jesus
Can't quit you, you're like drugs
Swear I tried to clean up
Too much shared between us
Saved my soul like Jesus

Freudian

You are the reason
The reason I sing
I have to preserve you
Cause you're my everything
Babe I know I f*cked up
Focus on them B cups
'Cause you got your friends too
Better believe in it
Truth I'm up on my luck
Can't stop running amok
But you got your friends too

I just want to thank you for saving my life, yes
I just want to thank you for all your advice

You are the reason, the reason I'm alive
I must bring you honour
If I don't, I'd die
I know I brought shame
Put a mock on your name
But you got your thanks too, better believe it I
Rising up from the flame
The phoenix that I became
But you got your thanks too

I just want to thank you for giving me life yes
I just want to thank you for all your advice

Send me kisses when it's grey skies
It's been so long look how time flies
If you love me won't you let me know
I've been trying to learn let you go
Call my name whenever tears fall
When you face your fears you stand tall

Send me kisses when it's grey skies
It's been so long look how time flies
If you love me won't you let me know
I've been trying to learn let you go
Call my name whenever tears fall
When you face your fears you stand tall

Know I'd take a bullet for you
No you don't know what I go through
And I know you think you're kinda nice
Do you remember when I saved your life
Don't come at me on some weak shit
It's time you stopped displaying weakness, oh, oh

Hey momma
It's your second son the same I ain't changed momma
I made some change
Times have changed on me
Times have changed (minds have changed)
My mind feel strange momma but I feel the same
I feel ashamed when I'm face to face with my faith
Face to face with my faith momma, I lost my faith

Isn't it nice
Human sacrifice
The universe got it
I got too excited
And now we're taking life
Isn't it nice
Human sacrifice
I hate consequences, that shit is too expensive
You keep chasing delight
Isn't it nice
Human sacrifice
I take the easy way out every time
I don't deserve my own life
Isn't it nice
Human sacrifice oh yes
Say I'm a martyr
Charge that to my ego
I just want all the lights
