Fallen Flowers Lyrics

My first love was my fellow swim coach

Bought her earrings off my first job

Yeah I did the most

And I still got em

Cause she was spoken for

My family loved her family

Shame we don't see em no more

Soon after that a fresh, crush off of Instagram

Sudanese chick

Down to earth

She knew my fam

Years later I done asked for her hand(heh)

But her father said no

We both don't understand

But God knows best

Yes God has other plans

But God knows best

Yes God has other plans

I'm just sitting with these lines in the sand

(Right)

I'm just sitting with these lines in the sand

(That's right)

Hey

My fellow peer

A Yemeni engineer

Her intellect and her charm is what done drew me near

She was aiming for a stunning career

After half a year

I made the call dawg

I made my intentions clear

But after rejection her family then disappeared

The shock left me in therapy stuck with all these tears

Yeah

For real

She all and disappeared

I was left with tears

After a year, therapy was looking up

Quarantine, Ramadan, my G done had enough

So a special zoom class I sought to join up (right)

Yes a special zoom class I'd thought I'd join up

Egyptian connection

The curls was perfection

I was just in love with the vibe (yeah)

A date at the park

Phone convos after dark

Then I found out I'm the man on the side

(Yo)

A few years passed

I fell for my work mate

Another Yemeni thing we was moving weight

Close quarters dawg, I know y'all can relate

I was wary of my feelings

I know y'all can relate

I was wary of my feelings so I procrastinated

'Till the tension was so high that none of us could not take I

Broke down and told her how I feel

She laughed and said that none of it was her deal

And we was still on good terms until she had to go

Why she flirted with me past that I'll never know

(Yo, for real like)

Yeah

I guess I'll never know

Why she flirted with me like that I'll never know

I was at a mosque visiting my man on tour

This Syrian queen flirted with me at the door

I was shy, I felt I was way too old

She was elated at my age

I was shocked she was so bold

I didn't trust her for months

I'm off guard

But four months in, I admit, I fell hard

Let her sweet talk me into renting her out a car

Then she left me with the police tickets, racing the boulevard

My God

Had me screaming up at the stars

How many times God, you gon' push me this far

But

Huh

The answers coming now and (mm)

Uh

Should've never rented that car (nah)

Some part of me wishes one would come back

But that 's just wishful thinking

I put that in the back of my head

Those memories are dead

We must move on

We must forge ahead huh

We must forge ahead huh

Yeah

We must forge ahead huh

Yeah

Those memories are dead

I keep telling myself that we must forge ahead

Wishful thinking huh

Just wishful thinking huh

Yeah

Just wishful thinking yeah
