Warm Enough

Who are you to tell me

I'm not warm enough for summertime?

I know that I can decide myself

But you don't know me like the sun

You've never seen my horizon

If I was everything I never was

Drugs got me bubbly, suddenly mumbling

Simile meant to be for you

Now the futile go fishing for moon over roof top

A new style for praying to everything I ever loved

My black boy outer space looking like a rain child

But my body move like the sun

Gon' run till I'm rainbow, we painted the fifty shades of grey

Stones across the lake

The house in the house, deceptive

Carnations are wittingly announced on Sunday for the holy of it

Solely covet me and you

For you and I

Are blissfully tethered to simple redeeming

When sadness gets worse and we don't know why

Our city is bleeding for prims and I don't protest

I just dance in my shadows

Hallowed be thy empty

When my name don't sing, shallow waters

Under bridges don't forget 'bout me

Who are you to love me and not call me by my name

I'm Sunny, I'm Sunny just like you No-name

Like the sun, like the sun

Who are you to tell me I can't love you

The way mothers love daughters?

The way Mary was closest to Joseph

And babies is close to the Father

You don't know me and love got a secret hand shake

And mad inside jokes

I could tell it's knock knock when my heart beatbox

Use our inside voice

Who are you to tell me

I don't want you the way flesh wants freedom?

The way greed loves need

The way kings need kingdoms

You don't know what I know

What I'm capable of

What I slaved for and traded in favors

And gave up for you, what I gave up for love

Who are you to tell me

I'm not warm enough for summertime?

I know that I can decide myself

But you don't know me like the sun

You've never seen my horizon

You like the flower that I won't let die

Right before your petals start to wilt

I choose to give you one last try

Fill your vase up with water

Refusin to neglect you

Like your father

So I promise that it won't run dry

Good intentions 'cause I wanna see us both fly

But I often put me first and I been wonderin' why

I know you probably think you're blessed to have a wonderful guy

And that's the truth but at the same time a wonderful lie

'Cause to me you're a dime and I'm still a nickel

And you know **** say that every coin got two sides

Well if you knew both minds not sure you'd like what you find

I made mistakes I want to tell you but can't make up my mind

As I'm writing this, I see a red balloon in the sky

And to me that's a sign tellin me that these lines

Were meant to be written

Repentin in the form of a rhyme

I know the Lord's a forgiver, hope he'll forgive me in time

Who are you to tell me

I'm not warm enough for summertime?

I know that I can decide myself

But you don't know me like the sun

You've never seen my horizon
