Babylon (feat. G.Flores & Yara) Video (MV)

Divvy up the doubts into damaged goods
To sever the sadness like I knew you would
Babble on cuz our tongues were up to no good
A fork in the road means a trip through the woods
Can't sit with the despair even though I should
Stood up from the chair just cuz I could
Could've thrown me a rope instead I got hooked
Impaled like a fish about to be cooked
I got some bodies askin' what's for dinner
A piece of me and you till we've found our winner
The path we took was hardly ever linear
We go together like honey and vinegar
A lil sweet and sour's been our signature
It all makes sense when I'm all in her
A lil' deeper, then her moans turn into slurs
Her nails dig into my back, I swear this works
Gotta lil hope I pirouette into words
Twirlin' around like the hair pulled out at the root
Simple pleasures demand big actions I heard
We just do what we can do, any plan is moot
When all is said and done, the "it" factor is you
Gotta figure out how to make our way to the truth
Gotta get down, we've got nothing left to lose
Maybe if I sell it well we can come to a truce

White lies poison us like cyanide
We can't afford to run and hide all the time
The pitter-patter of problems picked apart in the light
Shed the put on pounds of our plight
The ways we show love matter no matter how slight
And the ways we fight put the fear of flight in mind
It bears repeating so I'm sayin' it all the time
Not lookin' for a war, just warmth on a cold night
We can kill the fear and learn to stop closin'
Every door and window into us that we should keep open
Two people in motion learnin' to navigate oceans
Drowning apart when there's a boat we can row in
I'm sittin' here mopin' at the shade you're throwin'
Instead we can embrace that there's no shame in devotion
It's not a race, we go together in portions
Don't pay mind to the pace or their notions

Paint me the way you see me
In all of my sound and fury
I hate that you don't believe me
We can make it through, don't worry
I've set my mind so many times
To step outside and try to find
A place where we don't need to hide
A place where we can speak our mind

Show me an act of contrition
Then maybe it'll be worth living
Cuz baby, I'm f*cking livid
Slippin' on a figment of a gimmick
I had a vision, you were it, kid
Draped in fine linens, I'm finished
Losin' my shit, take me to a clinic
You're bitchin', and the lingerie's unclippin'

Kill me, kill me with a kiss
Give it, give it to me quick
Just the way I like it
Show me where the magic is
There's a cold wind and it's blowin' in
So maybe it's time we gave in to it
Maybe you can see what I can give
A window closes so we're kicking doors in

We meet each other's crazy at eye level
Clearly I'm the bass and you're the treble
Us put together, we're on another level
Clearly you're the thorns and I'm the petals
We meet each other's crazy at eye level
Clearly I'm the bass and you're the treble
Us put together, we're on another level
Clearly I'm the thorns and you're the petals
