[Intro]

There's nothing in the world that could make me think

That women, especially Black women

Aren’t like hand-picked from God himself

It's like...divine, damn near

They're divine

And the stuff they accomplish

In spite of everything they deal with

It’s just like, like


[Verse]

Who told you that you wasn't amazing?

I been stuck to the pavement looking for cross-streets

Searching for the intersection where ya heart beats

I don't know if I'm even dreaming and lost sleep

I ain't know you would be the reason I talk sweet

But look at us now

I been keeping it pushing

I see your glow and all your goodness around

It's middle fingers if they putting us down

Just cause you'd rather just sip at the crib then bounce it at a club

And I'd rather just sit where you live and shower you with love

I watched you bud from a flower to a garden

Powerful with your marching

I’m around for you, softened up I wanna hold this down for you

But wonder if that counts to you, I know your past it was Hell

So I been tryna spot heaven from this Mountain View

We can drop weapons and stop stretching this out for you

Let me know what you about to do

Cause I done scoped cold shoulders froze post solstice

I can vouch for you

I’m willing to tip the scales just to get an ounce of you

Probably push through pain just to prove that it's palpable

Crafting every sound for you

To ask you how that sounds to you mama

Grounded roots never loose when I’m round with you

Every time I'm coming out the booth I wanna drown in you

I'm more North Star when all's going south for you

I, sip from your fountain you, picked me from out the pool

I think I found the truth, I’m fully fine with all your faults

And I ain't fighting no forever that I found in you

Pushing you to paths of your passion that's what I'm proud to do

I can see the crown on you before I put a gown on you Queen

Vivacious and you valuable Queen

But your mettle (metal) wasn't malleable Queen

That shit was God given

Stop tripping when you slipping and your plot thickens

Stop wishing for a shooting star

You been at the bar just thinking everything you do is law

When you find yourself I swear you'll never feel that you've been lost

Don't be acting clueless to the fact you made it super far

And I made it through my scars

Now it's time for me to show and prove my heart

Promise to do my part, with you it's smooth

And everybody thinks producing's hard

When they ain't got no movie star

It's nothing new to keep it true when it's just you involved

We spend years never showing who we truly are

Ima let you write your name on my vision board

I been in wars but I'm happier cause you with me more

I been through a lot, and I sin through a lot

But you the first thing in months that got my pencil to jot

I told her

Ima let you write your name on my vision board

I been in wars and I'm happier cause you with me more

I been through a lot, and I sin through a lot

But you the first thing in months that got my pencil to jot

I call it Solstice


[Outro]

This is the solstice

The solstice

Summertime, Wintertime

The Solstice
