paroles de chanson She Says... / If You Hear Say... - oddFelix

She says I'm tall
My bones, a little too long
My head towers above the crowd

She says thanks to God
Because that's how she noticed me

She says my eyes are freezers
When she looks at them, they freeze her
She could stare at them all day long
But can't bear it when they return the favour

She says she loves the shape of my nose
Now there are stories of how
They'll look good on her children
Yes, she says I could be her children's father
And she thinks touching mine with hers
Will make her feel better

She says I'm a painkiller
My presence eases the pains that kill her
Takes their lives away, talk about wars
And she wants me to be her warrior
I swear, this girl dey worry oh

She says my lips are beautifully crafted
Says they are pink
She doesn't need an ocean to drown
The small saliva in my mouth can do the magic
And, really, all these are Spanish to me

She says she loves my glasses
And my dress sense, and yada, yada, yada
And these words may be true, I don't know
Who can tell?

Who knows the heart of man, if not God?
And I'm not ruling out the possibility
Of she just wanting to eat my work
But she says there's more

That my skin on hers feels like silk
My tongue in her mouth feels like cake
She feels safest in my embrace
And I must confess
I love it when she laughs at my jokes

She says she likes my hair
She'll braid it into lines befitting for a poet like me
And when our children come
They'll have hair like mine
Well-braided, well-bred

And there's my palms
She says she wants to be fondled with it
She wants me to create angles and shapes
On her well-shaped body
To draw lines, endless lines from point A
To any point the spirit leads me to

She doesn't mind if I'm experienced
She's willing to take the risk
Oh, brave beauty
Did no one tell you about konji?
Konji na bastard

Putting all your eggs in one basket is faith
But shouldn't that be had in only God?
I mean, why throw yourself at a stranger like me?
Isn't sex sacred anymore?

Why pick me
When it's no news that looks deceive?
First impressions matter a lot, I know
But it's 2021, sister

But for today, let me be an open book
Create your experiences on me
I don't know why, but
For you, I'm willing to enjoy your experiences too

If you hear say I dey offline
No be say I dey depressed
No be say I take break from social media
Or I no gree buy data
Na my phone spoil

As village people don dey dey for city
E be like say I see thief
Wey I go work
Results no go show
Results no dey climb stage
As these insects don chop the ladder
Life hard
Even small pikin go tell you
But me
I go dey do wetin I fit do

So if you no hear me release new poem again
No be say I quit poetry
No be say I take the money to record go gamble
Na the studios dey on strike

You see
No be every way be better way
Sometimes, man gets to find him own way
Even ships them get compass
And with them
You go fit do make your goal
No come pass you
As I get hand
I no go put my destiny for your own naa

So if you hear say I don die
No be say I commit suicide
Na nature talk say e don do
Or na person kill me

As I dey breathe dey go
I go dey do everything wey I fit do
To make me better
I go be my driver, my pilot, my captain
And if nothing come work
Make e no be say na me shut the office door
Make e be say I play my part but condition carry the cup

So if you hear say I no do again
No be say I no wan do
No be say I don give up
Na the end don reach
