This song came together as an homage to classic boom-bap hip hop influences and its sampling style, as well as sound aesthetic.
The track was an attempt to bring the focus back on the lyrical content but at the same time maintaing an interesting and contemporary production style.
[INTRO: Sampled Vocal]
Love, Love, Love
After i've been sweet to you
After i've been good to you
After i've been good (Think it over)
After i've been sweet (x2)
STOP!
[VERSE 1: Dewitt Sound]
Yeah, you know they preach the humility
When i see em in the streets, look like royalty
Sunday morining in the mass, pad each others backs
Congratulating one another for their deeds and acts
I see you always motherfucker, i know who you are
The pain inside you cannot hold back i see clearly now
F-Fuck whatever yall been hearing
Cause i know there's someone winning
Oh my flow needs some containment uh (Stop!)
So tell the priest that im prayin for him
Got a present for the nuns, said im vouching for them
And all the kids in my block know just who im talking
About it all an assumption (WHAT THE F...)
Flying high while we listening to Fly-Lo
You know your sex is on fire, high float
But my opponent just retired, so why not?
The blues got me real bad, man i gotta work
[HOOK: Sampled Vocal]
(Love) Before you break
(Love) Break to you
(Love) Before you break
(Love) Sweet Break
Stop!
[VERSE 2: Dewitt Sound]
So, what's the answer to the real question?
Well, i guess that just depends on your standpoint
Uh, maybe together we can fake it
Uh, maybe together we can make it
On myself and my own issues, ain't nobody else
Walking through the doors of perception
Like im Aldous Huxley in an acid novel
Like im speaking bluntly and im feeling sour and i STOP!
So, maybe ill stick around, for a day or two
City jerk around, drive around my old block
Like the boss in town
Man he got the old swagger you know his name
[HOOK: Sampled Vocal]
(Love) Before you break
(Love) Break to you
(Love) Before you break
(Love) Sweet Break
Stop!
