I think I was recently inspired by the dancehall beat and it was a new groove in my repertoire at the time. The fellas laid this one on top of it and we molded it into this one.
lyrics
Verse 1:
Feelin the breeze, I’m in a penthouse, chillin at ease
I need a second to relax, in the fast live, bein at ease is something rare for a man like me
But still it isn’t what it should be, “couldn’t we atleast be together for the night”
I remember the words, I never heard such love and I never will again,
Get the ref and let’s fight till the death of the urge, or till the birds fly north for the winter
Whichever comes, I’ll be lost, if I give it a guess, then I’m willin to bet 9 lives all for the winner if there’s ever one, trust (that) I’ll be feelin the stress, never the less I’m here and the woman of my dreams is there
I moan without touch and reach through the air, as I swear, if it wasn’t the job, then I’d be in her arms
But I gotta be somewhere and all I hear is
Chorus:
You, you should be walkin me home, she said, You, you should be walking me on home instead
Well I’m all alone, and I’m sinkin, and I’m thinking, and I’m going out my mind trying to find you
What am I to do
Verse:
Now it’s suddenly hard, I got my mind on my job and I’m ducking the broad
I never wanted her to come into harms way, but A) I’m in an odd place, B) I’m a sucker for charm
But am I on point?, I ain’t at the ball for love, I’m on a mission and the villain is inside the room
My arm joint’s huggin on my holster snug, and now I’m illin cuz I’m feelin like it’s time to move
I see the boss by the door, the only way across is the dancefloor, I can see honey cuttin me off
So I boogie and electric slide as I glide, and it’s luckier for her than me she never saw
And I was able to remain low-key, when the bad guy bounced, I was under the car, buggin the ride on the outside
But in my heart, I’d rather be at the bar and you’re wonderin why I never try with, you
Chorus:
You, you should be walkin me home, she said, You, you should be walking me on home instead
Well I’m all alone, and I’m sinkin, thinkin, drinkin, and now I’m going out my mind trying to find you
What am I to do
