Roots - Complexity Lyrics
(Jill Scott)I've been wondering about the ComplexityOf what we have it shouldn't beMoreJust can't seeMore(Black Thought)You're physically in this, but how can we tellIf we was meant to be in bliss if you're not mentally as wellThis energy you're sending me is tricky as hellUsually it's like a 50/50 we can take an LBefore we start thingsAt this point being apart bringsThe feeling of somebody plucking at your heart-stringsI know it probably shouldn't feel like thisBut any other woman I see is in your likenessIt's from your cheekbones...To your lips...To your curves...To your deep moans...To that walk...To your words...Your love feelin' like a breakdown on the verveFirst we on good terms, then you're on my last nerveGot my back just achingMy Shoes is all tightIt's too complex when we choose to do it rightIt's wrongOne minute you a soldier - strongThen you turn around talking 'bout its over and gone.(i swear to god...)(Jill Scott)I've been wondering about the ComplexityOf what we have it shouldn't beMoreJust can't seeMoreI've been wondering about the ComplexityOf what we have it shouldn't beMoreJust can't seeMore(Black Thought)When your boyfriend's in town it's bound to be trouble, loveHis name Black and he known to be a lover ofGettin' it on with my smokers jacket onEyes racin' back and forthListening to shaggacornTryin' toFigure the causeWhy you always hackin' offLike I'm slackin' offMaybe our signals getting crossedWhat the case, love?You feel like you makin' a waste ofYour precious time? - You need to get a taste ofSome space to breathe, a moment as friendsWe shoulda felt ourselves slippin' into it again'Cuz it's likeOff and on, on and offPassion - Lost and found, found and lostClashin', askin' for nothing but understandingYour heart's made of glass, use care in handlingGirl - all-in-all I never leave you stranded'Cuz my respect you commanded(you figure it out...)(Jill Scott)I've been wondering about the ComplexityOf what we have it shouldn't beMoreJust can't seeMoreI've been wondering about the ComplexityOf what we have it shouldn't beMoreJust can't seeMore(Black Thought)I used to come into the partyAnd stand around'Cuz I was kinda too shy to really get downI used to, play the cornerAnd watch the sceneDeep down, knowing I wanted, to find me a queenAnd I can feel that in my stomachAnd up in my chestBecause I knew a lot of women, and some was freshBut then I found you, girl and just like meYou had a heart that was yearning to be set freeNow listenSee you and me need to take the timeTo erase any doubt that's inside your mindIts not a mountain that I'm ever too tired to climbAnd who's counting? - But I know at least a thousand timesI let you know I'm here for you, care for you, and confide in youBreak bread, share with you and provide for youAnd that's full time - it's no 9 to 5 with youThat's why I'm tryin' to work it out with you(Let's go.)(Jill Scott)I've been wondering about the ComplexityOf what we have it shouldn't beMoreJust can't seeMoreI've been wondering about the ComplexityOf what we have it shouldn't beMoreJust can't seeMore(Jill & Black)La da da daDa da da daLa da da daDa da daDada da daDa(Jill Scott)I've been wondering about the ComplexityOf what we have it shouldn't beMoreJust can't seeMore
