Not for nothing
You were the wind on a broken dawn
Set to the beat of a new ambition
The condition
An ignition
Formulaic
Out of position
Dah Dee dah dah Dee dah dah
(Babygirl you know what you did)
It was something
You were the light in a darkened hollow
Set my hopes for what’s tomorrow
All the sorrow
The time borrowed
Enigmatic
Nothing to show now
Dah Dee dah dah Dee dah dah
(Babygirl you know what you did)
La dee dee lah dah dee dah dun
(Who could have really seen it coming?)
Set to the tune of a ticking time clock
Meter over prose a poetic prime stock
Sifting through the avenues
Immortalized nostalgic cues
Never one to not see this through
We would have to make due
Dah Dee dah dah Dee dah dah
(Babygirl you know what you did)
La dee dee lah dah dee dah dun
(Who could have really seen it coming?)
The running
The drumming
Uncertain
Close curtain
Didn’t want to call quits
Until we saw the smoke
And new there was fire
Now I’m just over it
The pain in the past
When the rest is expired
Inquired
What was behind this betrayal
Locked in a time with double mirrors
Who could mimic such portryal
This simmers and teeters
Like a house of cards
About to collapse
Dah Dee dah dah Dee dah dah
(Babygirl you know what you did)
La dee dee lah dah dee dah dun
(Who could have really seen it coming?)
The running
The drumming
Uncertain
Close curtain
Dah Dee dah dah Dee dah dah
(Babygirl you know what you did)
La dee dee lah dah dee dah dun
(Who could have really seen it coming?)
The running
The drumming
Uncertain
Close curtain
