Get To Know

I'm seeking something meaningful it's deeper than
myself as a human and a man
trying to get to know...
trying to get to know...
A girl who only had men trying to get in her pants
I only want her to understand
I'm not sayin' this to sound smooth or nice
Inspite of her inner gripes she deserves a
Man who's polite
But she fights...herself
Scared of a man who'll do her right
But she's still so uptight
Pessismisstic and materialistic her inner demons
Are so persistent
So I'm a let her talk let her get it out
She seems so distant
So I'm a shut up and listen
Big fish small pond so I'm fishin'
For greater visions of her and speaking light
Until we have to take intermissions
What's your passion?What's your middle name?Where You from?Who You from?
no question you ask is dumb
I march to the beat of a different drum
No hollow sounds just deep thoughts...
We share together no small talk I know the weather
You glow when you speak and deserve something...
You can feel
So I'll pause...to be real
Let You know the deal
We can look at each other Ill give you eye contact
Don't look away you deserve my attention it'll be okay
Don't run away
I see your emotions right on your sleeve
Your heart is calling to me and pumping to BREATH
You beleievin' in me?
Then we can both be true to ourselves
I know your worth potential is dangerous
It started at birth
We all want to know our place on this Earth
Your priceless
Used to dudes being mindless
In the process you regress be stressed
Never envisioning palm trees on your EGRESS
Telling you what you should know
You didn't you should know
Your wonderful in every way
That guys don't have to brighten up your day
You should gain independence from adolescence
Capture the key unlock your true transgressions
While taming your obsessions
Not telling you what you should do
Baggage is something you dont have to hold on to
R.E.A.L is something you should run to
Your futures so bright deep convos
Reiterating Everything Associated With Life!
First impressions are must I must develop trust
You can't beleive in me before you beleive in you
You is something I can deal with cuz'
Once you reveal your heart I want it open
Not cuz' I wanna steal it
Not to sound soft but I want to nurture it
Our minds we can further them
Say the magic words Ill be there first thing
You are the 2nd Queen my moms first she's been there since birth
Bringin' up this King but this one thing I'm trying to get to know you
Mainly to grow not fuck you over bend and fold you
Really wanna hold you no one died Ill still console you
Our proximity to like is close to more than flirtin',lovin',kissin', or huggin'
Your heartstrings are in flux and tuggin'
Your so done with loving so young and unforgiving
Emotions in need of babysitting
Not being rude but honest
Ill build you up not tear you down I smile you smile frowns UpSide DowN
Ive matured I think right Side Up
She feels better just her luck
Dont feel lucky to get respect even if your father was negligent
Dont let some guy show you disrespect
Love URSELF know UR Worth thats my politics
Its not deep its common sense
Kinda reminds me of 'The Light' by Common Sense
"It shines special for you" a reference fresh and special for you
Now you know that H.E.R. isn't only a acronym for Her Every Right
If you dont call me every nite its okay you deserve your space I wont get upset
Spontaneity is what keeps it hot
Ill try hard not to crumble Ill be your rock
Trying to get to know
Trying to get to know
But ill never know if you dont show
Together we can grow
So dont hide what you know!
Be real with J-O or rather you call me JT?
Its whatever floats your boat
Whatever air comes out your lungs
Past your lips think about it
Dont start losing or rather losing me
Im used to being that QUIET 1 deep in thought pondering
Not conjuring a plan but being mindful your used to being minful too
Listen to IT...I like HER
There I saID it
