Heights by E-Wes Lyrics
Some heights will bring us close to the depth of our hearts
Together we lost it
Our melanin together was better than awesome
But whatever, she cleverly Beverly Hills flossing
Me? forever east-coast bossing
And even under the weather, I'm the bomb, Boston
Like running up a hill in marathons, you lost one
Like Lauryn up a hill in marathons, you lost ones
I bet I still run through your mind as often
But not as often as sunsets you lost in
The Boulevard full of cars, girl you stalling
Like a cheesesteak line back in Philly, you drawling
Long-distance, no time, who should I call then?
Priority minority, where do I fall in?
I've been misled before
It's companionship issues
I hold grudges like bad lovers, don't let me resent you
That's not Eric-like
Your love was not specific, it was very generic-like
Your excuse? you were getting your spirit right
Bullshit! our love mended our very spirits tight
Thinking with your eyes when I removed every fear in sight
Look into the skies, your high revealed your fear in heights
Bitch I'm Fahrenheit!
I paint a picture clear and bright when you hear me write
But you ain't hear me, right?
I looked you dead in your eyes and I made you my life
Told you if you stayed with me, I would make you my wife
Believed in you like God in that I'd never think twice
Believe me, that I tried, and I could never suffice
Fuck the comfort of a bed
I was your comfort when you bled
Making a way for nothing
Was left to suffer when you fled, alone
Forced to make a home while you roamed
Didn't bug your phone, left you alone when you zoned
You were all you
I was all us
Never insecure
It was all trust
We were friends before
I guess that was all bluff
It was you who I adored
I guess that was too much
But yeah, I wish she would've stayed
I wish she could've stayed
She was fit to be a goddess
I wish I would've prayed
This is how it feels when emotions are caged
Now I'm lost with the wind like the smoke from the sage
I couldn't write a song, my heart broke on the page
So much rain in my eyes from the shade in my mind
Good guy turned savage, what a shameful demise
Yeah, such a shameful demise
The love I had for you just couldn't match
To a woman still attached
Still looking back
Still ducking facts
This is so fucking whack
I fought for you, but my heart was no fucking match
I know you'd rather light a match and just forget my part
Because it's easier to leave without the broken heart
You lost your spot when you gave up
This that vulnerable shit
This that going through shit
This that loving a person who don't belong to you shit
Then, leaving you shit
Switch teams on you quick
Here's to leaving a person who don't believe in you, shit
(It's E-Wes!)
You'll never reach those heights again, baby!
In this life, you gotta give to get
Together we lost it
Our melanin together was better than awesome
But whatever, she cleverly Beverly Hills flossing
Me? forever east-coast bossing
And even under the weather, I'm the bomb, Boston
Like running up a hill in marathons, you lost one
Like Lauryn up a hill in marathons, you lost ones
I bet I still run through your mind as often
But not as often as sunsets you lost in
