Driftin by Jay Browne Lyrics
(Yeah)
(Well, well, well) Can I
Just take a little time to go in my mind and (yeah)
Reminisce?
Listen
[Verse 1]
2011 Take Care vibes
Liquor on ice but fire is in your eyes
Atmosphere thorough, tension matching your thighs
I brought the memories to put us back in this vibe
You brought the energy with a passion that's so divine
Who brought the Hennessy? We can end up laughing and crying
Listening to this music is moving us back in time
It feel like Fourth of July; who just lit a match in the sky?
Lost you then found you, God is so clever
We the puzzle pieces that's always fitting together
You the reason I write rhymes 'bout forever
Separating the soul, the universe won't let us
You should know better than texting me whole letters
"She loves me, she loves me not" on rose petals
I don't want the old you, I want you to be better
Shifting the paradigm, we created a whole level
More now than ever
She said "It's yours forever
You can slide through whenever
Now or later but right now sound better"
I'm writing about the right person but the wrong time
Late night drunk text from you always on time
Know you still mad at me but I seen you online
Cross paths, stroll down memory lane until my phone die
Reminisce on things we ain't accomplish
Nights I shut down and was unresponsive
Nights you went straight and drink 'till unconscious
Now I'm in a daze and wondering how we lost it
[Pre-Chorus]
I hate when it happens like that
Speaking from passion, oh, your body might snap
Setting an ambience to mood-light traps
Fronting and all, when you gon' run it right back like that, like that?
[Chorus: Isley Brothers and Jay]
Driftin' on a memory (Memories suddenly getting ahead of me, peddling)
Ain't no place I'd rather be (Memories suddenly getting ahead of me, peddling; Feeling like heaven, I hope you think of the better me)
Than with you, yeah (Think of the better me, yeah)
Lovin' you, well, well, well
Driftin' on a memory (Memories suddenly getting ahead of me, peddling)
Ain't no place I'd rather be (Memories suddenly getting ahead of me, peddling; Feeling like heaven, I hope you 'member the better me)
Than with you, yeah (Hope you think of the better me)
Lovin' you, well, well, well
[Verse 2]
You is my queen, you ride with me
You on my team, like my niggas
Envision an image, my heart smiles when I'm with you
And that's just a feeling you can't grab from a picture
And that's just a feeling I don't get with other women
Pregnant with thoughts of starting a family, are you kidding?
My Daddy say "Son, when it's real, you gon' feel it"
My Momma say "Son, if she leave, you gon' feel it"
I ain't
Tell you I love you, I showed you how
Won't hold you, I can't wait to hold you down
We did dirt, that's something for us to grow through now
Super Saiyan how I feel, I'm on Goku now
You
Make me feel in a way nobody ever has
These women couldn't see a fraction of my better half
Out of character to say that I need you
And time is the only real test to see through
Me saying I love you won't truly express
How I feel when I see you in my stomach and chest
If I confess, calling commitment is in my best
But the sacrifice and effort, it surely will manifest
Don't care if we have issues, long as we have trust
Give you my last dollars and give you my last breath
Full blown when you pulling up on me half dressed
Wanna share last names, photos and address
Tell your friend we trying for the thousandth time
I bet she know like she sniffing up a powder line
And no cap, us going back is known facts
If you saw me and bae in the cut, just don't ask
[Pre-Chorus]
Man, I hate when it happen like that
Speaking from passion, your body might snap
Setting an ambience to mood-light traps
Fronting and all, when you gon' run it right back like that, like that?
[Chorus: Isley Brothers and Jay]
Driftin' on a memory (Memories suddenly getting ahead of me, peddling)
Ain't no place I'd rather be (Memories suddenly getting ahead of me, peddling; Feeling like heaven, I hope you think of the better me)
Than with you, yeah (Think of the better me, yeah)
Lovin' you, well, well, well
Driftin' on a memory (Memories suddenly getting ahead of me, peddling)
Ain't no place I'd rather be (Memories suddenly getting ahead of me, peddling; Feeling like heaven, I hope you 'member the better me)
Than with you, yeah (Hope you think of the better me)
Lovin' you, well, well, well
[Outro]
Yeah
Well, well, well
Yeah, hey
Yeah
Hey, hey
Oh
