Write our wrongs

Beat by The Boy

[intro]
I need your light
We can name it Africa
Let’s just please go to Africa

[verse]
You say I’m in too deep
And you
Don’t have the capacity to see me now
You’re chained
I’m drowning underneath
And you know
I hold the key
But this is past all illustrations
Did you forget how to breathe me?
Shit, I forgot I made you grieve, please forgive me
I forgot the way I made you bleed when I left
I forgot I wasn’t there when you needed me

[Chorus]
But tell me can I write my wrongs?
To reach you where you won’t go
Before we say it’s gone
I know you’ve shut your heart down
But maybe this will still get through
Maybe you can write me a response
To how I write our wrongs?

This is the only way I know how
To make you listen
I’m hoping you’ll listen

[verse]
You know me more thorough
Than the most
You know where I’m coming from when I lose it
You know where I’m trying to go
I’ll admit it, I wasn’t the best at making you sure
That this was it
For me
That you were it
For me
You’re still it
For me

[Chorus]
So tell me can I write my wrongs?
To reach you where you won’t go
Before we say it’s gone
And I know you’ve shut your heart down
But maybe this will still get through
Maybe you can write me a response
To how I write our wrongs?

This is the only way I know how
To make you listen
I’m hoping you’ll listen
