Neptune's Jewels

When I met you, boy, you was the sweetest thing

Like a Sade tape in the coldest spring

When I saw your eyes, I thought they shined for me

Just being in your space was divine to me

Gave you true smiles and a lot more time

Then them ballin' cats who fiend to be mine

But really, love? You wasn't even fuckable

The way you were made, you highly untouchable

Peeped you though every move you made

Studied from a distance, watched the games you played

And some would say I should never came closer

But I ain't never had the taste for the phrase not supposed to

So I chose, imagine that

Put a plan into play to make it public fact that

I'm the one and you shoulda knew

That them other girls have never loved you like I do

For you I'd dive into a treacherous sea

Bring you Neptune's jewels to keep you happy

I would fly into a merciless sun

Steal you the sky 'cause you're the one

Mighta took some time, but most good things do

Manifest when the time is true

I admit I was nervous 'cause things get changed

Somethin' 'bout my lifestyle makes love so strange

So many angles and tangled components

Everybody wanna touch just for the moment

But you put a new hue in my blue

Added a perspective to my concrete views

'Bout tossing caution into the breeze

Following emotion like streams to the seas

Top priority, believe you me

Like, love, how you feel? You alright? Watcha need?

It's more than your lips on the nap of my neck

Or your hands on my breasts with your leg on my thigh

Or the look in your eyes as you slide inside

It's the way you make me wanna live instead of die

For you I'd dive into a treacherous sea

Bring you Neptune's jewels to keep you happy

I would fly into a merciless sun

Steal you the sky 'cause you're the one

The funniest part is that I never claimed you

Yet and still, when I talk to God, I name you

Even got your own song, look, you a star

No need to call names, you know who you are

I'd give you everything, be the mother of your seeds

Keep the world at bay if you need time to breathe

Be the chest to rest on when things a bit too much

These offers they stand, so no need to rush

You young, black and gifted, a whole life ahead of you

I love you for that, would never try to tame you

So I remain dedicated in the wings

Inspired by your laugh to wait for things

I just hope you aware of what you actually got

A true woman make my man want for not

So when you hear this song, know I'm speaking of you

This is a b-girl balled for true

For you I'd dive into a treacherous sea

Bring you Neptune's jewels to keep you happy

I would fly into a merciless sun

Steal you the sky

For you I'd dive into a treacherous sea

Bring you Neptune's jewels to keep you happy

I would fly into a merciless sun

Steal you the sky 'cause you're the one

For you I'd dive into a treacherous sea

Bring you Neptune's jewels to keep you happy

I would fly into a merciless sun

Steal you the sky 'cause you're the one
