paroles de chanson Hourglass - Rashaann

Sounds so soulful doesn't it?
This right here sounds like one of those chill summer days
Whether it's early in the morning or some time in the evening
Driving around, you got some things on your mind
The sky is looking so amazing
I'm just setting the stage though, that's besides the point
Listen up

Baby girl why do I overlook you?
In pursuit of love why you ain't who I look to?
Why let you get away then choose the wrong one to hook to?
How can you look so perfect and I know how long it took you?
And that's no time, girl you're perfect like that
A simple girl, natural, still first and they last
Crazy how you probably don't even notice, in fact
Only your future's on your mind, you're deserving of that

'Cause I been observing and I'm certain
Through all the girls I've entertained, you're the one that's worth it
You could be the one who would really serve a purpose
But silly old me making questionable choices
Every second that I waste, the further you'll get away
Another would come along and take you away from me
Pure joy on my face whenever we conversate
But to take it even further I'll admit that I'm afraid
I'll admit that I'm afraid

But baby there's a reason

See I'll admit that I'm afraid and I'm a little hesitant
Simply because in the past
You know I've been let down so many times
And I really ain't tryna be let down again
But let me further explain

I'll admit that I'm afraid, too many things in the way
I guess to start off, I'll just go ahead and say
In the past, when some potential would come my way
I'd be thinking that we're growing and then they'd suddenly change
But I gotta man up, no progression to hesitate
I'm just hoping that with you the situation ain't the same
You don't know until you try is what a wise man would say
Looking at you, seeing you complement me in every way

And I hate to say, I think you're too perfect for me
Too focused on your books, too purposefully
Working towards your goals, some might say it's boring
But you ain't got time to waste on things that ain't important
Me on the other hand, I need a balance of both
Working hard in this craft, but need some fun too, so
I really hope that to you that I won't be a distraction
But I love it when you find time to come to a show, ya know

And for that I thank you

You know, it's like 'cause if we ever turn into anything
Word to Drizzy, "what's a star if his most important fan is missing?"
But listen up

You know the older generations having something to say
About the changes in the way currently we portray
Ourselves, from social media to the music we make
Especially the way girls put themselves on display
But you are the classic definition of a woman
The type to give 'em hope they thought this generation couldn't
And my mom killing me saying y'all no longer exist
But if she ever met you, then you would be the one to prove it

You got me out my element, you had me hesitant
'Cause I already know that you were heaven sent
But I got a habit blocking out my blessings when
It's too hard to believe, hope you ain't further evidence
So now I gotta get myself together and
Leave the past in the past, focus on the present tense
Gotta stand out, take you places that you never been
Broke, but it's worth it if you're where the credit's spent
If you're where the credit's spent

Baby girl you're worth it
'Cause baby girl you're perfect
I probably don't deserve ya
'Cause baby girl you're perfect
Woah

Like an hourglass, girl I'm running out of time
And every second, minute, hour, see it going by
I know someone like you is so hard to find
Can't get you off my mind, I just wanna call you mine
Like an hourglass, girl I'm running out of time
