K-Rino, David Shawty - The Life of Love lyrics
[K-Rino, David Shawty - The Life of Love lyrics]
The initial meeting was magic, my
Vision was real please, d
I met her on the pasta isle
Near the macaroni and cheese
Despite a dose of intimidation I moved closer
Her glow was so ultra
I was nervous to approach her
Was kind out of practice
Hadn't done this in a while
But much to my astonishment
I was greeted with a smile
I told her my name is K-Rino
She cut me off flat
She said "What's your real name? Your
Mama didn't name you that"
As we chopped it up for a few
The similarities grew
I'm looking in the basket
"Oh are you a vegetarian too?"
I know you in here making groceries
And I ain't tryna stall you
So, I'm getta out ya way but is
It alright if I call you? She said "Sure"
Now I'm home tryna keep my cool
Killing time tryna to use the
Old school two day rule
When I finally picked the phone up
Butterfly start to visit
I get an apprehensive feeling as
I start dialing the digit's
All kind of thoughts enter my mental
I start to wonder
Is this just a voicemail? Did she
Give me the wrong number?
I'm assuming in a few short
Seconds I will know
The doubt turned into elation once
I heard her say "Hello?" love is life
And the life of love
Through the bad and good it's so beautiful
And even when it all fades away
You can live to love
Another day, another day
As we embarked upon our
First real verbal endeavor
Conversation flowed like I had
Been knowing her forever
We was so compatible it was laughable
The connection and energy from that
Natural attraction was unmatchable
The vibe she gave off was so casual
She was laid back smart and rational
Passionate not theatrical
The progression through courtship was gradual
The way she seem to travel through
My every mental avenue was masterful
Three hours of phone talking nightly
In subsequent daily
Text messages and emails she would write me
You know that feeling that gets
In your stomach when
Every thought that's coming from within
That special someone is accomplishing
The consummation date I'm wondering
No sex or fondling or astonishing
I can't believe how many months it's been
Patiently I've waited
The duration was completed
On the day that we released
It expectation was exceeded
Sharing home
Now we entering the inseparable zone
And we so gon' that friends and
Family done left us alone
A minor discrepancy never was long
Respect made nothing irreparable
Correctional efforts was strong
But things started gon' terribly wrong
We lost stride, love started giving way to
Mistrust from both sides
Animosity and lack of communication starts
Went from fiending to be together
To fiending to be apart
Now attention and resentment the both
Of us are consumed
Gon' hours without speaking but sitting
In the same room and the same bed
But now it's like a wall is between us
Folks who knew us then wouldn't recognize
Us if they seen us
As the frustration levels reached
A peak in escalation
The agitation graduates to daily altercation
We was both hurting
Problems you can read in my face
I started feeling like Tom
Because I needed MySpace
See at first we was the perfect lovers
We went from speaking encouraging
Words to seeking
Out verbal slurs to hurt each other
And truthfully it's not worth it brother
I use to see deep in her other realm but
Now I only see the surface of her
You feel the burn
Ask yourself when will you learn
Your real concern as she starts telling
You that old familiar term
Yeah I love you but I'm not in love with you
In retrospect, no regrets it's for the best
To break up this official
Love, love-love, love-love, love-love
