about

sampled a lord apex joint and talked to myself some more

lyrics

i don't give myself space
suffocate me with the weed smoke
take some time off the high and i feel aligned so intense feelings aside
i still gotta grind up
go for the green
on a occasion puff w me
focusing on blessing focusing on me
but it's devastating what i see
is this really a reflection of me?
i'm talking but you not hearing
set the base and move away
because i know my heart can stay
can't speak just appease
don't care if you believe
because i seen how tragedies overwhelm me
i gotta learn to take the helm and balance the scales
but you gotta learn to do that for yourself as well
don't wanna be attached it's insecure don't know if we'll fail
if you don't wanna try let me know and i'll bail
don't reach out no more please
control you keep your grace
do i know how to keep problems private on my mind?
niggas talking bout me moving different on my guidance
on my mind man on my mama in gon find it
don't deny that i make mistakes but i'm trying
are you trying?
you can say i'm weird for having sum to say
but every one in my life real because they stay to the grain
and i don't wanna criticize it's not that you some bad babe
i just gotta recognize the message what i'm feeling
it's okay sometime shit fade away
you can go through distance and close days
but this feel like you pushing me away
and i don't wanna go somewhere you ain't welcomina
am i so wrong for being hurt by that?
am i so pressed to want to talk bout it?
on god you won't never see me bare again
brought out poisons the poisons i don't regret that shit
was satisfied with the nookie n the moment
i don't need baby i don't want to own it
put my loving into niggas that gon keep me moaning

Nkiru Emelle New York, New York

I AM INK.
graceful, useful, an implement for beautiful creation.
deep, dark, vast, sensual, hypnotizing in its skin.
if you dive deep into a pool of it, your eyes will burn, your nose will sting, but as your heart slows its beat you will be surrounded by blissful, open, nothingness.
nothing survives within it, yet without it nothing lives on.
and so it is; free, black, ink. ... more
