Labor Pains

[Verse 1]
This goes out to my three seeds in deed and creed
They freed me from the spite of a repeat serial offender of leaving
Gave me a life with more meaning
See when I met your dad, it was a beautiful evening
Sitting at the beach while the moon, she was still breathing
Decided from that day our connection was seeming to offer up a seedling of a sacrificial needing of something bigger than ourselves instead of just history repeating
Ended up moving to a hippy farm so peaceful and freeing
Listening to Aеsop on an mp3 player while toking the weedlings
How can such a connеction come off of Myspace? Believe me
We struggled so much but found a sync through meeting
Built on politics, religion and eating
Transformed both of us into such beautiful beings
And I’m better ’til this day even though we not speaking
Let me tell you more about your story as the record’s still streaming

[Hook]
And even though the times have changed
And in our minds we're not the same
I’m still going through these labor pains
Please listen to my labor pains

We could debate on who's to blame
But still the memories remain
While I’m going through these labor pains
Please listen to my labor pains

[Verse 2]
I still recall being at the doctors, they're saying it's twins
At first we were shocked but then happiness sets in
Time for us to stop being children and let adulthood begin
Yeah we spoke on what kind of parents we'd be frequent
But ain’t really know until you came out the womb, reaching
I’m laying on the table, crying ‘cause I’m freaking
Anything could have happened but there you were peeking
Your dad looked peak-ed
Both of us speechless
How can two opposites make something so perfect and teeming with life?
A combination of patience
Traces of us in each seedling
So smart, so curious
And their halo comes with her heart beating
Soon after the wedding with the reverend reading
’til death do us part
But vows can shift meaning
Yet the most important reasons are these queenies
Growing up so fast even after the grieving
And I ain’t mean for it end up like this with me leaving
Believe me

[Hook]
And even though the times have changed
And in our minds we're not the same
I’m still going through these labor pains
Please listen to my labor pains

We could debate on who's to blame
But still the memories remain
While I’m going through these labor pains
Please listen to my labor pains

[Verse 3]
And It's a shame how one day you say you're in love and the next day you notice it ain't the type that you were thinking of
Not saying I never loved him ‘cause I did
But that fire burns out when the fighting catches wind
And soon the flame that once warmed us now burns down the grins
Argue everyday and the liquor fuels the grim
Not knowing how the stress of daily life could cause so much conflict
Stayed for as long as I could but so much hurtful nonsense
Speak so ill of each other out of spite, those tests we bombed it
But the best gift was you three angels who soften my heart with each calm breath
You were never the problem and also not the solution to solve it
Just innocent bystanders like Rwandan nuns in a convent
So even though words get in the way of the topic
Just saying my love’s unconditional like a nonprofit
Prophet channeling my past so you could learn something off it

[Hook]
And even though the times have changed
And in our minds we're not the same
I’m still going through these labor pains
Please listen to my labor pains

We could debate on who's to blame
But still the memories remain
While I’m going through these labor pains
Please listen to my labor pains
