Abide

I'm a simple man with simple goals You wanna know who I am? Im like here you go I used to think I wasn't anything Just a walking fallacy hanging from the weight of his broken dreams Praying to a God who he felt he wasn't listening Catching sentences of well deserved hatred from a father who Fast-forward, a few years later You see me on the dance floor, a smile that took my breath away People busting out they moves but we couldn't do em' I'm asking all my questions hoping you won't see right through em' Just as nervous of you like I don't know what I'm doing Take this pen and my heart and I'll put it to my music Started talking and walking, we started talking about our walk Man, I couldn't comprehend you said your joy was from God You admitted you were flawed, you admitted you weren't God Humility like that comes once in a long Girl I long for your heart, you beauty raising the bar I'll love you as a whole and that's including your scars Trouble just believing in 6 short months My hearts been open for the woman he calls beloved Now take this precious moment, and cook it up We serving everybody, eating until we're stuffed and plus You took a moment, took a second to think About the possibilities and how they would grow you Speechless so I told you "Girl I wanna know you" "Treat you cuz you're royalty and I'm gonna show you" Got no royalties for my Royal Tease, you know I'm loyal You're knight in busted armor cuz I'm always fighting for ya Disrespected and rejected Couldn't see your own reflection Girl if you could see what I could see I know you get the message What I'm seeing is perfection in the imperfection There's no need to look so desperate when you look in my direction I feel so awkward, as you call me your charmer But I'm complimenting you irregardless of what you offer No receipts and no return offers, Girl you'll never stop me You're a product that is priceless, wouldn't trade you for a bargain My heart is captivated, there's no way I could replace you I'm a man, not a boy wanting physical engagement I look into your eyes and I see the Fathers eyes I look into your heart and I see your paralyzed Freedom has a price, and you're asking what is mine If I do more, or see more, will you take away the lies The daughter that you are, you ain't have to ask twice Matter of fact you ain't ask at all, he'll do it every time He'll tell you that you're worthy, He'll tell you that you are mine Precious child, you are heard and seen by the divine I'll take away the pride, I'll take the hurt inside Just keep your eyes on me, you're doing just fine You're not another failure that you'll have to justify You ain't another standard when you look into my eyes Between the I and you the word is call abide Between the I and you the word is call abide Honoring you, honoring me Honoring God, this honor is mine Honoring you, honoring me Honoring God, this honor is mine
