Drop By Drop - Lmnz, Paleface, Kenny Wesley

When you left

I didn’t even mean to chase

Queen

Made a scene, spleen, seen your meanest face

You leave a trace, i be the rain, filling the space

Been between the sheets now see your empty seat

Your fading shade

I — the puddle, just as deep as the slime

Reflectin, trying to be seen as deep as the sky

How i’m feeling inside?

peep this, leavin a dry

Spot keepin it si- lent, disappear without si- rens

When you left

I didn’t even mean to chase

Queen

Made a scene, spleen, seen your meanest face

You leave a trace, i be the river

Who’s filling the space?

Alone in my stream bed

No hope it all seems sad

I — the river, trying to climb to the top

Trying to grind to the spot, the highest, the climax

Carrying so many stones, the onus in us heavy

Tried to guard your glint

Failed — carrying your heart of flint

When you left

I didn’t even mean to chase

Queen

Made a scene, spleen, seen your meanest face

You leave a mark

Plastic all over the place

Drastic — the role that you played

I — the ocean, so many drops

So many puddles and rivers

So many pots

A vortex of emotions

Some sink and some rise to the sky

One blink, one arise in them eyes

Rainy days

Drop by drop

Wash the

Pain away

Drop by drop

Watchin' the planet

I be part of the madness

Rainy days

Drop by drop

Wash the

Pain away

Drop by drop

Washin' the planet

I be part of the madness

Paleface

It was spring

You now, you could smell springtime

But it was still winter in the shade

Awaken, awaken, senses awaken

In the window, you were beautiful like a model

It was gospel but without the hymnal

When you climbed into my pipe dream

You shifted the circuits, I drew in the air

The shape of a cross, let’s take it slow

Then one day, I asked are we in private

No, you said that «we're three or four»

We had taken the step together

You answered my question with a question

You don’t have to think about what you’ll have for food today

You don’t have to feel confused, what kind of dreams I see at night

Hey, baby, you don’t need to panic

Wake up in a cold sweat

If you don’t have anymore strength, let me continue

Let me carry you for the rest of the way

Let me take care of this, let me grow

I will carry you like you carry my child

Kenny Wesley

Who was the one who said

It was illegal

To be gifted and a negro

We bleed, we cry

Everyone’s the same inside

Who was the one who said

It was a crime to be

Young and black and free

Who would have thought

They would try to kill our dream

Can humanity survive

By devalueing our lives

Take the power that was stolen

Spread it round to another

Cause we are a part of the whole
