Violets Songtext
von Miles Davis & Robert Glasper feat. Phonte
Violets Songtext
something so wonderful and (ya) new
2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-1-2
1-2
Tigalo, tigalo, tigalo, tigalo
Yo
Blues and greens and violets
eyes get
heavy with the weight og the world
around the iris
its like something insane
its like a virus
its like a hybrid
of all your joys and your pains
that you bring to the table
periodically
and memorize ′em lik a scientist
for you to make it dawg
ya gonna need allainces
a blessing and a prayer from the whole world
Arch diocese, trigger
Lets put it to rest
cuz im so in need of one
i only hear about it and i never really seen it done
everybody asking when im coming out
so when i run a route
i take the scenic one
To get away from all that ails me
i return to the place that never fails me
the heus spread the news
giving color to your frailties
the blues and the greens and all thats in between
and this is how i mean
one time
(chore)
Something so wonderful and new
a million colors just for you
it shines in everything you do
like violets
Yo blue and greens and violets
eyes get
heavy with the weight of the world
around the iris
So much that i be appalled to see 'em
close your eyes envision the cause for freedom
but when they open its a struggle to carpe diem
cuz the streets is littered with the niggas from
mausoleums
Giving up is the last option
so when i spit my last doctrine
i make the audience clap foe my offensive lines
like they pass blocking
i really wanna chill
but i aint that yet
dont want to live in excess
Think i need her tonight
like inxs
"Nigga dont you send that!" (NO!)
take time to introspect
so you can keep going
to get those checks
and giving praises
cuz never before have you been so blessed
when the trouble of the world
starts to ail me
i return to the place that never fails me
the hues spread the news
giving color to your frailties
the blues and the greens and all thats in between
Like that. Ride it out. Hey.
The blues and the greens and all thats in between
and this is how i meen
(chore)
Something so wonderful and new
a million colors just for you
it shines in everything you do
Like Violets
