A-F-R-O - Modest World lyrics

Venting within the pen and pretending
To lift the pain
Sending lyrics and ending the
Fury within the lane
Hopin' that I can scope and
Then rise with sunshine
I'm focusin', eyes closed
I'm finally done trying

A somber heart beats blood and
Seeks for the candle
Walkin' in the dark
Startin' to think all the damage
The modest painter
Tracin' this unraveled imagery
The heart in the prodigy
Playing piano swiftly
The instrument of feelings left bleeding
Chest heaving
Had to address the reason I'm
Seeing the step receding
There's a blessed noose tied around
The neck of the person
Who decides that the rest of
His life ain't worth it
The painter wants the impossible
To be picture perfect
Dark state cause melancholy in
Her to feel worthless
The option of a paintbrush saves up denial
The jottin' of the paint funds
The weight of her smile


Venting within the pen and pretending
To lift the pain
Sending lyrics and ending the
Fury within the lane
Hopin' that I can scope and
Then rise with sunshine
I'm focusin', eyes closed
I'm finally done trying

Nothing is sweeter than the scent
Of a beautiful woman
Lovin' eagerly
The test of her mutual comin'
There's the zest, best sex
But the pleasure and pain
Causes man to consent to cement in his grave
Straight confusion in his mind
Life illuminated fine
But the sun stops when the
Clouds block the beauty's shine
Dark passages that the man is trapped under
Wishin' that the hard absence
Of happiness stumbles
The car accident caused the
Man to switch mind-set
And look for the beauty in life
Wished for life's treasure
I prayed you would scoop up the tile
Finally, he trades in the noose for his smile


Venting within the pen and pretending
To lift the pain
Sending lyrics and ending the
Fury within the lane
Hopin' that I can scope and
Then rise with sunshine
I'm focusin', eyes closed
I'm finally done trying
(Laughter)
Ayo
Happy birthday, homegurl
Peace!
