lirik lagu #finesselove – eaglebabel

[intro]
what you know about, what you know about, what you know about the homie?
i’m just tryna live, i just wanna give, i just want y’all to hold me
yeah

[hook 1]
i just want the peace and love and happiness
i’m hoping i could ride this wave forever
fulfillment, i can feel it tell chicago that i’m coming home my heart is doing better
like 32 teeth, like just cause
livin on this #finesselove
i’mma give this my best of
(think i just found my god, feel like i know my god
think i just found my god, feel like i know my god
agh!)
[verse 1]
met a stranger at a liquor store inviting me to kick it with her later
(yeah it was actually a safeway, but we’ll go with “liquor store”)
she a lawyer here in cali but her daddy from the chi, robert taylor
(that’s the projects, robert taylor projects, yeah)
and i’m trippin cause she h-lla fine, and her n-gg- h-lla john mayer
(your body is a wonderland, yes yes)
but he just tryna blow through some weed and paper and dance on a marble table
today he was best man, and i’ll be that yes man
to charlie and reagan wanna give my congratulations
nice to meet you, this serendipity sh-t is amazing
and i get it so frequently nowadays, got my calculator with me
prayin’ it do stay with me
i’m sayin’ a lot
but i gotta put freedom in practice and i gotta sing that from the top, top
of my lungs
got so high, thought that i was gonna die
but my heart kept on beatin’ from my body to the sky

[hook 2]
what you know about, what you know about, what you know about the homie?
i’m just tryna live, i just wanna give, i just want y’all to hold me
like 32 teeth, like just cause
livin on this #finesselove
i’mma give this my best of
(think i just found my god, feel like i know my god
think i just found my god, feel like i know my–)

[verse 2]
i was all in my smoke and lookin’ beyond the high
me so gone off that cali kush and thought i was gon’ die
a city n-gg-, i am a tower
my will is to sear the bottom of heaven and fight for old sh-t
i feel like gil scott, f-ck
rest in peace to every comic, singer, shaman, thinker
black as a burnt poem
poets pr-ne to go diggin’ in brown soil
once in pen and paper, then in spoon, foil, fire
tryna find the truth
in ghettos, atlantic routes
n-gg-, i’mma find the roots
that mind and that body glue
finesse it, finesse it, finesse everything as f-ckin proof
a heathen that’s h-lla preachin, yeah he ain’t got sh-t to lose
like f-ck bein’ bitter, been so bitter tryna fix my bruises
i played the game 24-plus just to be told my home ain’t gonna make it
like, n-gg- “f-ck hatred — i got love, what”
from the lung
i get high and they think i’m afraid to die
but the way that i be livin’, joe, i only multiply

[hook 3]
what you know about, what you know about, what you know about the homie?
i’m just tryna live, i just wanna give, i just want y’all to hold me
like 32 teeth, like just cause
livin on this #finesselove
i’mma give this my best of
(think i just found my god, feel like i know my god
think i just found my god, feel like i know my god
agh!)

[interlude]
see nah nah nah nah… you gotta understand
finessin’ is not just a word
it’s a culture, it’s the way we live
it’s what we eat, think, and breathe, you understand me?
like when you out there in that world
and you with yo partners and you swingin’ and swayin’
and tryna take it all on for what it’s worth
it becomes something that’s bigger than you
you know it’s just this overwhelming sense of joy that you get
you know what i’m talkin about?

[outro]
finesse in the name of love, finesse in the name of love
oh we gon’ finesse in the name of love, finesse in the name of love
groove in the name of love, groove in the name of love
live in the name of love, live in the name of love

[hook 1]

[epilogue]
so it’s a really interesting story how this song came to be
earlier this year i was working with my homie a-lan on her new play the bottom
which is actually borrowed from toni morrison’s “the bottom of heaven”
and we were up in the hills, very very high up
and then i got stupid high with my homie geet off marijuana
and just started losing all control of perception and physical reality
i got as high as i always told my highschool homie edison that i was afraid to get
he’d probably be laughin his -ss off if he was listening to this right now
but long story short: i just think it was by the power of love that i got back to reality
like on some matthew mcconaughey interstellar sh-t: like, it was love
and that journey taught me so much about who i am and who i’m tryna be
like, i haven’t been telling stories for a long time
but this is the kinda stuff that i think is what’s gonna get those stories out…
