[Intro: Mereba]


[?]

Don't leave, I'm coming

Don't leave, I'm coming back

Just wait, I'm coming

Just wait, I'm coming back

Don't you question my love, we'll be more than enough

Don't leave, I'm coming

Don't you stress in my love, not gonna give it up

Don't leave, I'm coming

Don't leave, I'm coming

Don't leave, I'm coming back

Just wait, I'm coming

Just wait, I'm coming back

Don't you question my love, we'll be more than enough

Don't leave, I'm coming

Don't you stress in my love, not gonna give it up

Don't leave, I'm coming


[Verse 1: Khary]

I play with fate while Calypso waits

Is all our afternoon dates tryna meet me at eight's?

Or 10's, or 12's? At that point, we just fucking

I told you I needed space, doesn't mean you mean nothing

I'm just tryna be something, though you would say that I'm everything

My love for you only falls short of a wedding ring

But, I'm sick of budgeting, sick of hardly paying rent

So it's hard not to view time with you as money spent

My insecurities in the song

The things I'd never tell my mother, [?] a girl when I'm home

Fears of cheating, fears of leaving, should I leave you alone?

'Cause all the grown relationships around me are long-gone

Love is brave, or are we slaves just afraid to move on?

I don't know, a fool's gold, I want top of the totem pole

And I would give anything, I understand if you leave now

It isn't fair, but that's the love that I need now


[Chorus: Mereba]

Don't leave, I'm coming

Don't leave, I'm coming, yeah

Just wait, I'm coming

Just wait, I'm coming, back

Don't you question my love, not gonna give it up

Don't leave I'm—

Don't you question my love, not gonna give it up

Don't leave, I'm coming


[Verse 2: Khary]

How do you love someone who loves something more than you?

I don't know, I'm guessing she does

'Cause if I was in the same position that she was

I don't know if me and her ambitions could keep up

I often think that she would be better off with the alpha male

A dude with confidence, 'cause I don't know myself

But she subscribes to me, though I like common sense

I'm just trying to go as far as overly-honest gets

I be on some lonely shit, do it on my own, make her say

"Don't you want me? Shit, could you give a bitch a bone, or a call, or a text?"

I'm sorry, I'm complex

These halogen lights have only made way for my success

Sometimes I may forget the brightest thing right beside me

Like stars, beyond the sky

And planets were re-aligning

I wonder if comets died, knowing they could've impacted the earth

So when I leave, I'm planning I'll rebirth


[Chorus: Mereba]

Don't leave, I'm coming

Don't leave, I'm coming back

Just wait, I'm coming

Just wait, I'm coming back

Don't you question my love, we'll be more than enough

Don't leave, I'm coming

Don't you stress in my love, not gonna give it up

Don't leave, I'm coming

[Outro: Khary & Mereba]

I watch the sand fall through the hourglass

I take a couple turns, I may have skipped a class

But I swear I'm on my way, I see my name up on the map baby

Painted the Atlas, now I'm practicing ppath, baby

Yeah, so don't be mad, baby

I'm coming back for you, 'cause I have to do what I have to do

Hope that you can be patient, love, 'cause I'm ill

Wait for anything real, but yes, it's killing me slow

Thinking the miles to go, like

Satellite the planet, throw me into orbit

The galaxy in a sponge, hopefully I can absorb it

Hopefully I'll be enormous

Hopefully tyrannosaurus

Rex, I am next, never been a dormant doorman

But, I mean I go to college, get a job, bores me

Find a wife who adores me, freshman year was full of orgies

But... you?

I think you get it

So I promise you every extra second that I'm permitted
