Black Love

And check this, I want to place those little post-it notes
All around the house so she never forgets how much I love her type love
And not have enough ink in my pen to write
All there is to love about her type love
And hope I make her feel as good as she makes me feel
And I want to deal with my friends making fun of me
The way I made fun of them when they went through the same kind of love type love
Only difference is, this is one of those real love type loves

Black love, I want to
I want to live in it
Pull me over a chair
'Cause I want to sit in it
Take a moment to glare
'Cause I want to witness it
And I started it yeah, so I want to finish it
It smell like cocoa butter here
A toast to love and still, I feel close to you in spirit
I ain't local but I'm near, get me?
Black is powerful
I believe in you when everyone is doubting you
Our love is like compatible
Fifteen minutes feel like an hour
And Cupid done got his bow and I get it, I got his arrow
You like Howard to me
All black, loud when you speak
This black love could probably power the streets
I see black
I dream black
When I hear of black love, I need that
I praise God and I'm thankful today
I thank God that I'm made in this way
Black, black, black (black)
Don't be surprised I'm woke up in this madness
My liquor light though, I prefer my men redacted
I'm in love with blackness
I just want my status to reflect a marriage
I just want to carry all your kids and be the best dramatic wife
I want to wallow in your life
We on the same page, I wanna follow your light, like
You take me higher every flight
God probably in His body, nothing higher than His might, nah
I think God is Black
And I say it with confidence 'cause I'm proud of that
It's this overly opulence that's personified
That makes me think the goals I'm accomplishing is a lot of that
(God is Black)
If you doubt it, I doubt different
I want to fall in love in my bonnet and house slippers
Whether in the hood or in land of much
I want to fall in love and land standing up
Black children, the owners of black buildings
Who open up the roads for the boldness of black feelings
I hit the ground running with a way to fly
I'll tell my black son that it's okay to cry
I'll have the type order I ain't have before
To see my black daughter be a daddy's girl
With that in store, all happiness is endured
But I think that black love is the most powerful drug of all

I wanna love like me thinking of you
Thinking of me thinking of you type love
Or me telling my friends more than I've ever admitted to myself
About how I feel about you type love
Or hating how jealous you are
But loving how much you want me all to yourself type love
Or seeing how your first name just sound so good next to my last name
And, shit, I wanted to see how-
I wanted to see how far I could get without calling you
And I barely made it out of my garage
See, I want a love that makes me wait until she falls asleep
And wonder if she's dreaming about us being in love type love
Or who loves the other more
Or what she's doing this exact moment
Or slow dancing in the middle of our apartment
To the music of our hearts
Closing my eyes and imagining how a love so good
Could hurt so much when she's not there
And shit I love not knowing where this love is headed type love
