Esperanza Spalding - With Others (Ears) lyrics
[Esperanza Spalding - With Others Ears lyrics]
You can have my love
As long as I can tell you what to do
If you know what I need
You'll use it against me yes it’s sad enough
There just ain't enough love in the world
If you want some from me
I'll need some context
I’ve been learning about
Psychology, sociology, and the rest
Now I can't rest
'Cause everyone reeks of power trips
Where do I fit in your power trip?
Let's see if your analysis favors me
I mean otherwise why would I listen
To others also
Protecting their baby
Some in need of
Undoing and real
Love
From someone who lets me see they need mine
Without the pre-condition they be like me
Like we don't all
Just need love
Okay, so you're really just gonna say
It straight out like that?
That we all need love
The promise of the knowledge of
The promise of the knowledge of
The soothing arms
Well it's chemical
Really group survival in the wild
Is the history of instinctual nurture
So the feeling of needing to
Be loved is nothing more
Than our primitive brains
Responding to stress
I've been learning about
Psychology, neurobiology, and the rest
Now I can’t rest
’Cause everything reeks of basic needs
How do I get all my basic needs met?
What? D– do I really have to just–
Come out and say it?
Just straight up? That I do need
Love, the promise of, love
Love, the knowledge of, of love
Love, the soothing arms, love
Love, the promise of, of love
Love, the knowledge of, love
Love, the soothing arms, of love love
Love love
Love
As long as I can tell you what to do
If you know what I need
You'll use it against me yes it’s sad enough
There just ain't enough love in the world
If you want some from me
I'll need some context
I’ve been learning about
Psychology, sociology, and the rest
Now I can't rest
'Cause everyone reeks of power trips
Where do I fit in your power trip?
Let's see if your analysis favors me
I mean otherwise why would I listen
To others also
Protecting their baby
Some in need of
Undoing and real
Love
From someone who lets me see they need mine
Without the pre-condition they be like me
Like we don't all

Okay, so you're really just gonna say
