lirik lagu donovan livingston – molasses
janae:
when a ? is cold and tired
and time is hard for losing sleep (heyy)
make some love to make your heart inspired
bring you to my arms again ohhhh
verse 1 (donovan):
one time for your mind, two times for your spirit (mm)
yeah, let’s make it three times for the lyrics
much love to the record, as it spins going ?
everytime a dj drops the needle in a divot i
hit the booth, and i mix it like a chemist, you know
metacognition, metaphor, metaphysics
looking for the truth everytime that i spit it
and the vibe make it say it’s all good when it isn’t
in the kitchen as i’m cooking up another dream
in my mind, i can hear my grandmother sing
to the tune of an ? oven ding probably sweet potato pie
or some other thing now i don’t need a recipe
when i can see my destiny especially since
this whole life will be the death of me regrettably
setting the table for the last time, you know
i stole them biscuits like a pastime
as i atone for all my past crimes, yo i know this moment
over for these sad rhymes, i chose joy for sure
even as a little boy (come on) run around the ville
still shy as illinois, looking at that game and seeing voids
that’s word to audre lorde
i know that anger used does not destroy
the hate i rise above it and rejoice, grammy said
use your voice, you know you gotta make a joyful noise
work like booker t when you thinkin’ like dubois
don’t be coy, especially when someone’s in strike
you better be about your business
when there’s no one in sight
and boy say it with your chest
when you holdin’ the mic (when you holdin’ the mic)
talk about the other side like you know what it’s like
but i don’t, i know you’re hovered over in flight
heaven ‘s newest angel, you see
my blackness is like biscuits and molasses
eyes closed when i bite
chorus:
yeah, i tried to tell’em we was magic (magic)
grab another biscuit from the basket (from the basket)
pass it, and dip it in a lil molasses (molasses)
dab it, thick and bittersweet like my black is (like my black is)
yeah, i tried to tell’em we was magic (magic)
grab another biscuit from the basket (from the basket)
pass it, and dip it in a lil molasses (molasses)
dab it, thick and bittersweet like my black is (like my black is)
verse two (janae):
when i feel like i can’t go on
i hear you tellin me to be strong
and in my mind i see you on your knees asking god
to cover me
i’m here i’m here because your voice found god’s ears
i hope you’re proud of me memories that were magic
i wish that we could rehash it
love so sweet still covers me like molasses
i know you’re up there resting
and rest is a blessin but i miss you i miss you
hope you’re proud of me
(memories that were magic)
yeah, i tried to tell’em we was magic
(love so sweet still covers me like molasses)
grab another biscuit from the basket pass it
(i wish we could rehash it)
and dip it in a lil molasses, dab it
(love so sweet still covers me)
thick and bittersweet like my black is
(like molasses)
i tried to tell’em we was magic
(like molasses)
grab another biscuit from the basket
pass it, and dip it in a lil molasses
(like molasses)
thick and bittersweet like my black is
(ooooh ohhhhh)
thank you
(i miss you i miss you)
but that’s how it is, when you got a story
(hope you’re proud of me. black girl magic)
it’s too rich. it’s too thick. it’s too sweet not to tell. so lets tell it
(memories that were magic i wish we could
rehash it love so sweet still covers me like molasses)
