The Procussions, Stro Elliot, Mr. J. Medeiros, Talib Kweli - Miss January lyrics

I had to say goodbye to Miss January
She had a hold on my mind for so long and
I learned a lesson in life from Miss January
The weight left on my heart is less heavy
When the first light shines
The first light shines in June

I thought I fell in love once
With a girl who loves blunts
And got fronts and she made
Me rise above lust i thought I fell in love
Again with this one chick
Body so thick it was hard not to
I fell in love just one more time after that
Shorty had me ready to settle
Down and make a habitat
The sad fact is I wasn't ready to
Give up my freedom
And so I let them go pretending
That I don't need 'em so here I sit at the
Bar amongst the star gazers
Caught in the crosshairs
A target of a heart breaker
The radio was playing Neither One of Us
By Gladys, it's so ironic I chuckled
I reminisce on all the chicks that I ran thru
Now I'm dealing with this black
Magic one man boo
Stringing me along like the guitar on
The song I'm rapping on
I ain't do the math, a Libra and a Capricorn

I had to say goodbye to Miss January
She had a hold on my mind for so long and
I learned a lesson in life from Miss January
The weight left on my heart is less heavy
When the first light shines
The first light shines in June

True love got the power
To change any circumstance
I knew we were far from the same
But still I took a chance
Wish I could have looked in
Advance to your advances
Knowing I'm the book that you
Read to your advantage
I understand it's not like we planned
It with the worst intentions
Take it for granted
I was stranded in your first impressions
I know it hurts to question
What will be a curse or blessin'
I guess it's worth confessin'
Maybe then we'll learn our lesson
Searching for your attention
Hoping you were doing the same
Pursuing the fame
Knowing that only you were entertained
Using me, and I was new to the pain
Cause rejection I hadn't meet him
But I knew him by name
True I grew from the pain
In the days where I'd pay anything
Standing there like John Cusack
From Say Anything
Planning on you to call back
But it never rings
There were so many things
There were so many signs
And now I'm chasing wings knowing
It's a waste of time
Untill my God reminds me of what I truly need
I take a look behind just
Before your beauty leaves
To get a glimpse of you hoping
That you see me too
And know we staring at two
People that we never knew
And probably never know
Hoping I'll forever grow
Into the one who finally gained the
Strength to let you go
And changed my idea of what true love is
I wipe my eyes clear and rise above this

I had to say goodbye to Miss January
She had a hold on my mind for so long and
I learned a lesson in life from Miss January
The weight left on my heart is less heavy
When the first light shines
The first light shines in June
