lirik lagu unbearable sweetness – chee malabar

verse 1
for that little man he used to be
movin’ with the bough brothers through the mall boostin’ jeans
cruising streets with a boombox, cube playing loud
till his mama heard him curse and told him, “get in the house”
…straight to his room
that he shares with baby sis who’s laughing like a goon
for the man that he hoped to be
quoting dope emcees, he even stole their st–z
hoping what he wrote’s dope and he won’t get teased—
didn’t happen, but he steady kept rappin’
for the man that he might be in the end
beyond ambitions, he wants to be worthy of his friends
same ones who take his call at the height of the night
connect the dots and give shape to his type of life
for the fans who told a friend, ‘this is my friend go and peep it.’
for the grown man pickin’ up all the pieces
for the folk in his life for their unbearable sweetness

verse 2
for all the things he used to dream of
feet up on mama’s sofa, speakin’ on a green touch
tone phone she said he couldn’t use until he cleaned up—
girl laughed on the other end, he called her a mean sl-t
back when kindness didn’t mean much
for that kid that felt bad and expressed his teen love
for that girl that saw through it and shot him a mean mug
… for love and its limits
for first love and all the girls he cheated on her with
for the wrongs he tried to right but left off his lips
…first fights and split lips
for his niece’s soft snores, coughs, and kid fits
…for his last and only
one who makes him feel just a little less lonely
for the younger version of his mom tired and sleepless
for the dreams of that child in their unbearable sweetness
