lirik lagu august graves - perfect love
[verse]
i’d love for this to get easier
i’d love not to feel greedy
i’d love most not to feel needy
i’d love for someone in this world to say they need me
it sounds toxic, but i still mean it
i’m still mean to my mates
i’m still mating with fiends
i’m still fiending for love
i’m still loving for story’s sake
i’m still starving while i scr~pe my plate
i’ve been making sure my people ate
but eight times out of ten, i put up yellow tape
so many shots left bodies dropped, numbers locked away
i’m usually better at hedging bets through the palpitates
but еvery time i bet against my bеts, i make mistakes
i’ve made it through the page that talks about the different faces:
i’m less a rake. i snake charm, harmless conversations
my harmless jots have been tracing all these women naked
but if this blood makes me a shark, it makes the thoughts abrasive
too many long nights unsatiated
too many traits i associate with
i’m on the feed watching bleeding hearts talk their hatred
they say woman’s where we place the blame in
how the world’s been operating
i pick a side, though i’m no pick me
i select what makes most sense to me
a feminist who likes his flesh appeased
no wonder how i make my enemies
my ammunition turned my maybes into memories
i lost my baby to a better me
man enough to admit it, not enough to get the recipe
i left her long on the burner, she caught the third degree
she’s on her instagram, acting like she ain’t heard of me
i keep a chip, but it don’t burden me
capricorn mars, i’m in the interim, learning things
i’ve been studying my chart and digging deeper in art
i’ve been studying people and their intricate evils
i’m in the feeld, tryna siphon honey from bumble bees
but watching likes in the single digits is humbling
watching bridgerton, hoping something’ll come for me
it’s comforting enough at the moment, but i’m still tumble~free
mutombo swinging, my shots raining like monarchy
my moniker is my middle, my name is hard to read
jericho makes my walls look precautionary
but if they’d speak, then they’ll tell you today the streets are scary
i wanna marry, but that’s just not meant for me
so many scorpios settle for living in their means
tracee ellis, drake, whoopi, and even future tried
i guess ciara and ryan reynolds are lullabies
i’m 23, turning 24, scared of 29
i’m scared of being incorrigible, i’m scared of lies
i’m scared of hoping and being roped into old surprises
i’m scared of succubi loving me just to bleed me dry
and i’m tired of being left on read
of things we left unsaid
of the bated breath
and i’m tired of telling mom ’bout every girl i met
i’ve been saying so many times that she’s the one, i bet
if i did put any money down
for every girl that got me thinking ’bout an ultrasound
i would have drowned in all the debt, i would’ve fled every city and town
you’d have to pay your respects, the bounty outweighed the bounds
i’m ’bout to bounce from the apps, but sh~t’s a heavy strain
and i’ve grown numb to the number of times i’ve swiped today
when i lose inhibition, what do i stand to gain?
at this rate, it’s romantic if she repeats my name
i’m in my tower, tossing paper planes
not much to lose when my maschimo’s stained
if you read this note, come my way:
“i want to love you ’till it hurts. hope you feel the same.”
[outro]
and i’ve been down these roads before
where passion’s hot and hearts are cold
it hurts like h~ll, and h~lls my home
but if you could hit me right back
i’d fall back in your arms
for sure. for sure
