I See You

0:00

I See You I’m looking at you while you’re looking at me Still get butterflies — how it gotta be? After all this time you still that flame Say my name different — I ain’t the same When the days get rough and it weigh on your back You don’t say a word — I already catch that Little scheming smile, yeah I peep that cue Like “you know what to do” — I slide through They say rub the lamp, get a wish in life I rubbed your back — got the perfect wife Hands on your shoulders, tension release World outside loud but in here it’s peace Routine love but it never routine You unwind slow, leaning on me You been my backbone, stood ten toes Spoke for me when I lost my flow Strong and opinionated — built from grace Through every season your body’s faced Even when lately you don’t feel strong I still see the fire you built this on Because of you I feel bulletproof Still a fool for you — that’s the honest truth I’m a hand grenade, lit fuse for you Pull the pin and I go boom for you You my calm when the world move fast My future, my present, my past If you ever feel weak, I shoulder the load You held me up — now I hold You rescued me but I fought that grace Armor locked in a steel embrace Years of tempering shaped that frame You touched one spot — nothing the same Tiny ship in a cyclone spin Thunder rolling, folding within Dark night swing like a batarang Mind going numb from the weight and strain Then you stepped in, steady and firm Voice of reason when bridges burned Now if your strength feel slightly thin I become the wall you lean against That’s how it go when the love is real No scoreboard, no keeping it even You carried us through doubt and fear Now I’m your shelter — I’m right here
