The Ways Lyrics

Uh

I gotta tell my side of the story, you know?

Look

Is it the way

I let my emotions get in the way

Of opportunity towards entering fame?

I mean, is it the way

The women love to tell me shit in my face

Get me invested in investing in them, giving them game

Follow through by demonstrating when adversity's faced

Tables turned, they always struggle trying to give me the same

Then I'm back with the homies to vent, passive aggressively

But don't, cause we all men and we tough, so I just let it be

A phony I could never be, heart on my sleeve

Failed relationships, followed by the scars when you grieve

The fatigue from all the trials makes it harder to leave

PTSD from your last makes it harder to see

Who really there for you

Genuinely love and care for you

Wouldn't hesitate to put a soul in the air for you

Therefore, you gotta let go and see the good

Create a boundary so you better understood

Is it the way

Is it the way you love me when I fall short?

Is it the way

Can you be the one that I can call for?

Is it the way

Is it the way you love me when I fall short?

Is it the way

Show me I'm the one that you're all for

Uh

And it's inevitable

Man needs woman like woman needs man

I know you heard the story of Adam and Eve and all

How she came from the rib

Well the rib protects the heart and

Woman's supposed to protect that, you know

That's not how it always pans out

Poetical Flows, Langston Blues

Look

She said I know I got your back like chiropract-

Kazie, I would never do you dirty

Cook and clean your clothes with detergent, fabric softener

Then encourage you to go out in the world so you can flourish

I know one thing is for certain, your emotions can curtain

Your logic when we at odds and it seems it isn't working

I just need to know if you could bring a better version out of me

When I fall short as a person

Instead of trying to kick me while I'm down

Cause my faults have left you hurting

I'm human which only means I'm flawed and I'm working

To be the best man for us, I know I'm worth it

Fatherless man, breaking the generational curses

Just know every day ain't gonna be like the last

Whether yesterday was good or was bad

We progress from the past

You a blessing or a lesson but that's

Figured out by time spent and I'm investing in that

I ain't impressed by the yap

Because I've been heard it all

I'm impressed by the acts and stats, mixed with the facts

As of late, every dating foundation is cracked

So I'm a player to the public but I'm failing to catch

A solid woman I could love for real and feel knots

In my stomach got me all in my feels and real shocked

That there's actually women out there that will top

My expectations singing like I'm Jill Scott

Is it the ways
