lirik lagu soulchef - black love
[verse 1 – gabriel teodros]
i don’t want to chill, but i keep getting these tracks
so i ease back and breathe raps
like a slow burn
meditative
contemplative
i say it’s prayers
i know it’s many layers
when music hits, it can leave craters
far enough away, you could see a face in it
mask or an image
i’m tracing the imprint left
and never get it quite correct
it’s just a breath on the nape of your neck
at best, we all long to connect
like spirit and flesh
with no restrictions
it’s not about s-x, but it could be too
i want to stand in my truth
naked and bare
totally cared for, sacred and rare
with a nature to share
some can’t handle the glare
and that’s fair
i am daring, can be too much
i don’t rush
maybe i’m not easy to love, or i set myself up
with high expectations that no one can touch
but i feel it in friendships, feel it moments
and feel beautiful, when i am seen in wholeness
a sensuality that i believe my home is
but some days, i still feel homeless
even in my own house
so i get out
and dream as loud as my body can project
unprotected
vulnerable
respected
feared and admired
but rarely met
we are all at our best when connected
just watch for sharp edges
when involved with reflection
[chorus x2]
black love
i don’t gotta explain too much
my folks got my back like no one does
something bout loving you in our native tongue
opens up possibilities, and heals where i’m from
i love the way my name feels in your mouth
i hope i hold yours as delicate and proud
i wonder if the ancestors smile when they see us
something bout your happiness feels like freedom
black love
[verse 2 – sarah mk]
what it means to me
the thought of lighting up this mystery
don’t mean to forget and turn the page
but another home keeps calling out my name
i can’t explain
how it must feel to stand
on the grounds i heard was the motherland
my shaky self got so much to learn
having me as unaware of what makes her
in the mirror, physical traces i can’t relate to
in my everyday places that i go to
sometimes i cross paths with my sister
eyes spark and recognize one another
and that’s truth and love and light
angels sent to let me know that’s it’s alright
time’ll come when the moment is right
to [?]
[chorus x2]
black love
i don’t gotta explain too much
my folks got my back like no one does
something bout loving you in our native tongue
opens up possibilities, and heals where i’m from
i love the way my name feels in your mouth
i hope i hold yours as delicate and proud
i wonder if the ancestors smile when they see us
something bout your happiness feels like freedom
black love
