ocean






When i was younger, i used to wonder like, if i was singing songs 
just to sing the songs or if i was singing cause thats what the 
bitches wanted. I couldn't play guitar like Van Halen, had no secret 
chords like Saint David. But you still came around, ate your lunch 
with me. Used to park your car, to try to bus with me, but I would 
say "girl don't be dumb" I'm riding shotgun. We could go to my 
house after school, cause my dad don't clock off till late. We could 
kick it in the living room. Looking through my whole vinyl collection 
and you could teach me how to slow dance or something. And I'ma 
give you chills harmonizing to Otis, Isley, Marvin.

Now I'm in the lab always working late always sleeping past the 

breakfast she makes.She used to stop by, come and holla at me, 
put her purse down and try to battle rap me. She don't do that no 
more, don't even listen to the songs I record. But she be banging that 
Drake in my car. I'm so far gone, she stay blasting Trey and his songs. 
All damn day long. It's like she never heard of me.


Damn, I'm saying though like
All I write is love songs
And I try, I come to the studio
I... you know what I do
Who'd you think I'd do it for, uh?
Yea, aha
But you ain't listening, never
But if you were, you might fuck with it
But if you were
Might work, baby
All these songs for women
Songs for women
Songs for you baby
For you
