lyrics

baby, i just want to know ur name

give it 2 me
the blood from ur heart of stone
let it break through the levy and drown me n
xtacy

if you could meet my needs
i won't have to leave u
and go and find a friend
who'll do what i want them 2

i've been ur slave
for as long as i've been ur friend
and u never caved-never bent
ur heart of stone
u never gave-needle n but no blood
from ur heart of stone

why are u afraid?
don't u think i'm a great lover?
i'll only make u feel better, babe

don't hold back
put the pillow to ur mouth and scream
it aint 2 much 2 ask. i see ur freak
a twinkle n the tall grass

tell ur story, baby
or we'll fill n the blanks
and say goodbye
without even so much as a thanks

Just a beautiful jazzy rap album with buttery smooth flows versed with huge talent. It's not only lovely to the ears, but the lyrics are profound and empowering about the struggles that she faces. zhangtastic
