Introspection Eternal

I often dream of you, split the screen in two
But what I see in you is invisible to the naked eye
Been miserable since last July, that’s when you departed
When I started drinkin’ heavily
While starin’ at that Beverly… Johnson paintin’
Relief from that constant achin’
The twinkle in my eye became a constellation
My contemplation bogged down by constant thinkin’
I guess that’s just the cost of sinkin’
Deeper in the lover’s abyss
Love is war, though lovers enlist for combat
Ain’t no contact

I don’t call, you don’t text
I was sprung, you obsessed
Feelings overload, so when we ended it
I was numb
You actin’ like you possessed
Last night, “I fucked up when I fucked him”
You confess, and now I’m heated
Told you I don’t want this
But now I need it
Naw bump that
Now I’m leavin’
Never to return

Hell ascended to the sky means heaven’s gonna burn
We never gon’ learn if we ain’t hurt when love defeat us
The lesson that love teach us; indignant
Just sprinkle a lil know-how on the ignant
Like smallpox to the engine
This epidemic infected
This introspection eternal
When forever never expected to cease
The lovers rest in peace

[Hook:]
The lovers rest in peace
Will the lover rescue me?
This lover's recipe
Ingredients for peace
But it also cooked the war that caused the bleedin’
I love her when she’s leavin’
Yes, I love her when she’s stayin’
Do the lover breathe the hatred
Lovers rest in peace
This lover rescued we

Non-religious for the spiritual numb
That pedal to that metal goin’ zero to one… hundred
Mental pressin’ against my mind
And what I find is introspection… eternal… inferno
Satan flame… tempted… naked dame
Wetter than that river, I could make it rain
Liberate my body, I could break the chains
Bloods and sails(?)
Locks and sails
Dreads and locs
Locks and keys
We bleed, we all made the same
Indifferent to my neighbor’s plight
No one at that same alike
Became the light I slang the mic like basin
Foot in ground, I put it down like basement
I told y’all my spaceships is ancient as old souls
And sold souls for profit
Tricked it off at topless bars
Most these rappers devils speaking godless bars
That’s till you find a lover to complete you
Fuck searching for that love, that love will seek you
Put holes inside your soul, that love will sink you
Take you to that deepest
Dreamin’ in the daylight
Your nights become the sleepless
Insomniac
Toss and turn, plus intoxicated off the cognac
Got me reminiscin’ bout the times we had
Lovers rest in peace

[Hook:]
The lovers rest in peace
Will the lover rescue me?
This lover’s recipe
Ingredients for peace
But it also cooked the war that caused the bleedin’
I love her when she’s leavin’
Yes, I love her when she’s stayin’
Do the lover breathe the hatred
Lovers rest in peace
This lover rescued me
