Are We In Love?

There are things that I'm going through that no one knows of But it’s written on the walls of Egypt I gotta read your phrases like 10 times and I'm not checkin for grammatical rhymes I'm adding up the I love you’s and I wish you were mine’s I'm trying to keep my eyes from watering because you make me want to erase love and start over again You make me want to re-evaluate the one that I'm with and flip the script And see if I love me as much as you do Boy let me tell you. I love you There have been days I wanted to call and say just that But I know there would be more to the story I couldn’t just tell how much I adore thee I couldn’t just say it and think that would be it I know that would be the moment that could make your heart say o’shiit I need to make this move Even though I'm with another dude, I love you Aint the type to break up happy homes Especially since both of us are trying to prove them wrong I don’t want to make a mistake I don’t want to be the one to walk away from all I know To fall into the abyss of mystery Cause I only know you as a friend you see Yes it flatters me that your thoughts are tattoos beneath my left breast Yet I can’t get to that yet I'm still stuck with your reflection as my shadow in the vanity I'm still forced to deal with the fact that you may truly love me Why did I wake up this morning and come to work Sitting in my office with a hell of a smirk I can’t even front… I been goin’ through some shiit and I wanted tell you But I can’t because there is only so much you can do You may be my guardian angel But it’s gonna take a helluva Monarch to get me through And trust me I'm not saying you’re not capable Let me stop there We parallel on a plane headed for eternity I'm the money you are the security What more do we need to add to this recipe? O yeah…I guess that would be…u and me.
