Silk/Velvet

[Part 1]

[Intro: Connis]
Hello?

[Chorus 1] (x2)
I’m a loner, I’m a lover, I’m a saint, I’m a sinner
I just wanna take my baby out to dinner like
Don’t you fuck ‘round with my mind
Leave that bullshit to the side

[Verse 1]
And this could be the only time I find myself
Tryna be the guy that I told myself I’d be when I found you right next to me
And it fucks me up it’s like I be up all night
Melatonin only cause I’m always on overdrive
But I’m forever shining and I love my life’s light
Every single person that I meet I look em in the eyes and see em as a blank slate
Me and you in the same place
So I could either judge you or just give you this handshake
I don’t consider what I do as building a fanbase
I just gotta move all this weight and it can’t wait

[Bridge]
See you must’ve mistaken me for someone else
But I don’t want no one else

[Verse 2]
I’m a loner, I’m a lover, I’m a saint, i’m a sinner
I just wanna take my baby out to dinner
I just wanna re-remind you of the things you don’t remember
Like when I was waiting for you in the middle of December
In the middle of a storm, breeze from the Charles River
I don’t wanna be as bitter as the beer in my liver but
You were tryna leave I was tryna make it better
Could’ve been the bigger things now we the runts of the litter and
If I never told you how I feel I’m hoping that you know how I feel
I could open up slowly as to how I’m always coping with life’s ills
And channel heartbreak with my mic skills
This the only thing that really seems to make sense now
Funny how the worst of my pain is the best sound I step down
Pan out and I say grace
I’m in the same place but I ain’t dealing with stress now, wow

[Part 2]

[Chorus 2]
Late summer nights let’s lay somewhere nice
I'll make some time to lose my mind
On these late summer nights thinking ‘bout when you were mine
But you were you and I was I
On the late summer nights, on these late summer nights
Late summer, yeah, yeah
Late summer nights let’s lay somewhere nice
I'll make some time to lose my mind
On these late summer nights thinking ‘bout when you were mine
But you were you and I was I
On the late summer nights lying right by you
See the light shine through

[Verse 3]
Early in the morning, dirty chai we came together post-divide
Cold winter, cold winter — no sleeve on the dirty chai
I got so high all because of you all because I don’t know what to do
I can’t tell you with my words but i could show you with my eyes

[Chorus 3]
Late summer nights let’s lay somewhere nice
I'll make some time to lose my mind
On these late summer nights thinking ‘bout when you were mine
But you were you and I was I
On the late summer nights, on these late summer nights
Late summer, yeah, yeah

[Verse 4]
I know if I ain’t never met you I would wake up in a rut
Everyday of every month you the spike inside my punch
I ate vicodin for lunch with Shareef
And it was sweeter than the candied yams the I got from the cafe
White girl round me sniff that ye, all here friends like, “Yay!”
Like how your body feel? Do you know if God is real?
No she ain’t perfect but I treat her like a goddess still
No I ain’t perfect but this dick will make your body feel good
