[Intro]

Authentic Intelligence on the track

The Hopeless Romantic

[Verse]

I'm all alone with no one beside me

High key in need of distractions

To stop my mind from twisting and compacting

Several situations in which I die alone

Like Al Capone in his last scene, wish I seen't that

You got me fiendin' for that

Like you my druggie, please hug me

And tell me it'll be okay

Wake me at the break of day

Next to me in my bed

Lay your head on my chest

Lemme carefully caress

The crevices of your silk mind

Smoother than jazz chords

Mixed with cheesy pick-up lines

You blow up my mind

Like you sweeping through some mines

Not sure how to play

But we always careful and take our time

Take my time as if its currency

Because time with you is well-spent

See I'm hell bent on making you mine

Even if that means I'm at the back of the line

As long as I'm not in the back of your mind

And when I get up front

I won't front nor will I play

Cause I've been waiting for the nine-Tays

Watching Dwayne slay Will and Jay

And my main man Carlton, Sway

Nah, I'm here cause I wanna put your troubles away

Put them in this treasure chest and place it

In the basement floor of the sea of forgetfulness

I hope the way I finesse these words

Can be interpreted as more than you hear

But more that you feel like the way your layers

And peel back, peel back, peel back

See that's real, that's what I want

And I'm here to tease or to taunt

Just show you the thoughts that haunt

This lonely romantic whose antics

Are very often get taken for granted

So he sits back and sips that tea ever so slanted

Waiting for someone to fall for his enchanted

Slow, 10 degrees below chill, flow

Now if you fall underneath the sound of my voice

Let's go, let's go, let's go

[Outro]
