Nectar - Topaz Jones

I see pump breaking and fun faking

I see too much junk in the trunk shakin

I see your son made from the love making

I see dreams drying up put your raisins in the sun round here

I see corner stores and bodegas

I see alphas, deltas, kappas, and omegas

and preachers and politicians, I can’t tell the difference

All these teens dying young but police don’t even come round here

The club hoppin and

All of that gun poppin'

Your mama crying it’s only one option

I just wanna shine on why they sun blocking

This glory is uncommon for a young legend

I feel the blood

Diamonds just a flood of necklace

I peel the fruit right off of the vine just to find the nectar

Darker the berry life just more complex in my complexion

I’m not gone stress it, uh

Yes I’m afraid

But its hard to keep from chasing you

Once I taste that fruit

I just want the nectar baby

I just need the nectar baby

How come the story get distorted all the time

I don’t see no water transforming into wine

I could tell you more than these reporters on the line

But my mind be rolling like a motor when I’m wind up

Why act a fool the grass is full of anacondas

You ever drive through Vietnam in a Honda

Or eat a continental breakfast in Rwanda

Might see the without the ganja

say hail mary mary we need yolanda

I was reminded by a goddess

kick some game

I’m getting lifted this is what she said

Bitch you ain’t broke just because you are not

broke, they still gone lock your head

Quit the dope now they pill poppin instead

Get a whiff of that snow and they wanna sled

But different strokes hit the folks in my winter coat

crunch time cinnamon toast

Serial killing, I’m milking this hoe energy militant though, uh uh

Tell me who do you consider the goat that isn’t a ghost

I guess them graveyard shifts had affected me

I was digging my own by the second week

I was living at home with expensive dreams

I thought I was grown only 17

The medicine ain’t never did the remedying

It’s Ramadan and every ghetto nigga’s never eating

And don’t nobody find it odd that it’s less than even

All I grew was paranoid in the garden of eden

Yes I’m afraid

But its hard to keep from chasing you once I taste that fruit

I just want the nectar baby

I just need the nectar baby

Yeah yeah yeah

Ay tell me have you read the news today

Damn, how many we lose today

Everybody in my whole damn crew was safe

Praise god or whichever you use to pray

We all cried out when the bazookas came

Now its dry all the time but it used to rain

It was all sex, love, music, pain

Tend to your garden

God gave us the water

So sweet

Tend to your garden

God’s son and your daughter

So sweet
