she took the good in spite of the bad. made me a dad.
i think women (can) underestimate the time, focus and effort that it takes to bring an idea to fruition and do it urself without outside help.(i.e. no engineer etc) hoping this helps show u where u lie in my creative process. ur a cornerstone.

Lyrics

Under the bonnet plant a sonnet for a chocolate flower
used to make the clouds crash into an awkward shower
Now I’m more careful with how I use my powers
Thall shall not devour
Or aggressively manipulate the rainwater to scour
She used to spend
hours and hours on my obsidian tower
turns out the taste of victory is sour
And the world really isn’t ours
We pay taxes to governmental cowards
They on pills if it’s not the powder
You showed me how to chill and silence the doubters
It’s with u I chose to build u slide me a daughter
And a son is soon to follow like the day after tomorrow or the joy after a sorrow
And u never speak in riddle like harpo
Or weigh me down like cargo
Or isolate me like the trade embargo
We at the speakeasy after the art show
Trafficking the magic outta Barstow
(u know)


And anytime that we at odds please be advised
I will never let u drown in this sea of life
I will abandon any tendency of mine detrimental so we realign
And redefine
What it is to be products of minority design
In a system that’s created to make sure that we decline
It’s no lie I’d rather die before I see us reassigned
Listening to sia onomatopoeia be a sign
Like sometimes it ain’t word for how it u see it be divine
Divination or a proclamation
My only promise is to love u til u ancient
But never make u anxious
One of em has been broken but the first one may just make it
The chances we have left they must be taken not forsaken
No coupling is perfect if u think so u mistaken
Not tryina justify why ive defied most of my statements
Its time u see the blessing for yo patience
Only you
