01:48With all these seductive photographs and all these one-off vacations
01:52You been taking, clearly a lot for me to take in, it don't make sense
01:56Young East African girl, you too busy fucking with your other man
01:59I was trying to put you on game, put you on a plane, take you and your mama to the motherland
02:02I could do it, maybe one day, when you figure out you're gonna need someone
02:06When you figure out it's alright here in the city and you don't run from where we come from
02:10That sound like poetic justice, poetic justice
02:14You were so new to this life, but goddamn you got adjusted
02:17I mean I write poems in these songs, dedicated to the fun sex
02:21Your natural hair and your soft skin and your big ass and that sundress
02:24Oof, good God, what you doing that walk for?
02:28When I see that they move, I just wish we would fight less and we would talk more
02:31They say communication, say relations, I can tell
02:34But I can never write my wrongs unless I write them down for real, P.S.
02:39You can get it, you can get it, you can get it, you can get it
02:45And I know just, know just, know just, know just what you want
02:49Whole way to justice, put it in a song, alright
02:53You can get it, you can get it, you can get it, you can get it
02:59And I know just, know just, know just, know just, know just what you want
03:03Whole way to justice, put it in a song, alright
03:08Every time I write these words, they become a taboo
03:14Making sure my punctuation curve, every letter hits true
03:17Living my life in the margin, and that metaphor was proof
03:20I'm talking poetic justice, poetic justice
03:24If I told you that a flower bloomed in a dark room, would you trust it?
03:27I mean, you need to hear this
03:30Love is not just a verb, it's you looking in the mirror
03:33Love is not just a verb, it's you looking for it maybe
03:36Call me crazy, we can both be insane
03:39A fatal attraction is common, and what we have common is pain
03:42I mean, you need to hear this
03:44Love is not just a verb, and I can see power steering
03:47Sex drive, when you swerve, I want that interference
03:50It's coherent, I can hear it, mm-hmm
03:53That's your heartbeat, it either caught me, or it caught me, mm-hmm
03:56Breathe slow and you'll find gold mines in these lines
04:00Sincerely or truly, and write before you go blind
04:03P.S.
04:06You can get it, you can get it, you can get it, you can get it
04:10And I know just, know just, know just, know just, know just what you want
04:14Whole way to justice, put it in a song
04:18One more time, homie

04:32Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, where is a problem?
04:34Hey, you all here from Serain, homie?
04:35I don't care, who this nigga over here for?
