Do you know me
Clear your mind of preconceived notions
because we're about to set things in motion
there are a few things that need clarified
if you want to remain by my side
Always popping off with what you please
well let me set your mind at ease
The things you claim hold little truth
makes me question what you do
Wipe the slate clean and free your mind
look at me with your loved filled eyes
The die was rolled the void filled up fast
separating the future from the past
You thought you knew me & I knew you
but what we thought just wasn't true
Clear the turmoil in which you stew
and see me with eyes anew
From experiences that were lived
we both have much love still to give
At this rate, we are at a draw
no more entanglements with Johnny Law
I lack the energy to compete
with random bimbos from the street
I am not wanting another man
No need for you to grandstand
Helpless whispers in the night
I only want to do what's right
My soul is craving righteousness
and I want for us to do our best
So shut your eyes and clear your mind
then open them up and feel the vibes
Will you ever truly know me
Let the bad thoughts go and we will both see
