Gold Milk
Simplicity: Vol 1 - 2 When it could all be so simple... A poetry collection of what was realized all along, but never understood until now.
2 Gold Milk
Hold up
You've been distant, with a sharp knife I tear a hole to see what's missing
Your soul is ripping
Your heart is dripping
Your mind is stripping
My hold is gripping
Gold milk, gold milk
A shimmering fluid of euphoria rushing to the floor
I cut you open
I needed to understand the meaning of true happiness
A feel I seek, a thrill far from reach
If this is what you say it is why can't you tell that to me
Instead you stand there and leak
Gold milk, gold milk
Nothing about this is beautiful to me
You hide underneath layers as if this is hide and go seek
Stop inching away from me
Won't sugar coat anymore, talk is cheap
And I'm feeling weak after everything you took from me
Have a drink this one's on me
Sure has been a hell of a week
Gold milk, gold milk
Memories on memories times that have flown by
Why you got to lie while looking me straight in the eyes
Don't you know what that does to me
All of the scenarios that I keep imagining
A black, broken hearted woman with damage up the ass
A dark façade waiting to be unmasked
Aren't you glad I didn't concede to who the world tried to make me be, last
Instead I fought relentlessly to get to where I felt I needed to be, unsurpassed
I hope you can still see me through all of this broken glass
I hope you can still feel me with all of this haunted past
Another shrill fills my ears
I just want to chill in this silk while I pop a pill of-
Gold milk, gold milk
I'll patch you up after all is said and done because I'm the one
Not a rerun we're still young on the border of twenty-one with so much to learn
Love isn't one, we've been down that road before
Furthermore you swore to never explore without me
But there you are figuring out ways to doubt me
Here I am none so blind as those who will not see
I'm feeling the third degree, it's like you turned up the heat
Even with my number, you still out of reach
Oh well, long time no see
You know you can always call, toll free
I want to know what happened between us two
It was fun until we ran out of things to do
Things to see, people to meet
Who are you without me
Who am I without you
I'm not sure either one of us is telling the truth
I'm not a sleuth and I won't become one for you
Do me a favor, fit the bill
What's the point of crying over spilled goodwill
Gold milk, gold milk
Hold up
You've been consistent, what a great life we've been living with nothing missing
Damn, this feels different
No gun shots every night but can you sleep without it
Accustomed to a life of streets and violence
Close your eyes, ease your mind while I lead the way
Get to showing you things that should be apart of your day
I know that there's really nothing that I could say to remove the pain when it's here and it tries to weigh
Down on you like a bilk, but you have strong will
This is not a drill, this shit right here is real
Fuck it, I think you just need some-
Gold milk, gold milk
