The Tea Lyrics by Choklate

To Whom It May Concern...

2009

[Intro]
Turn it up, c'mon
Yeah
You tried that, now give it back
You tried that, now give it back
You tried that, now give it back
You tried that, now give it back
[Verse 1]
I can't fit inside that box that you put me in (No more)
I've outgrown it, don't feel good against my skin
I think I'm in love with the lyrics all over again
They fit like a fresh fit of the rack, we so fierce
[Pre-Chorus]
Honey
Take what it is you may need from me
But let me keep my right to do it my way
Livin' how I like (I like)
Can I reserve my eyes to see it how I might?
[Chorus]
You tried that, now give it back
'Cause this is the tea for me
Go on and just let us bе free
You tried that (Tried that), now give it back (Givе it back)
'Cause this is the tea for me (Tea for me)
Go on and just let us be free
[Verse 2]
My, you don't fit inside the lines you've colored in
I, frequently found my Crayola outside of them
I think I'm in love with my bassline all over again (Yeah)
Fits like a fresh pair of dunks, homie, yes we fierce
[Pre-Chorus]
Honey
Take what it is you may need from me
But let me keep my right to do it my way
Livin' how I like (I like)
Can I reserve my eyes to see it how I might?
[Chorus]
You tried that, now give it back (Give it back)
'Cause this is the tea for me (Tea for me)
Go on and just let us be free
(Let me be free)
You tried that (Tried), now give it back (Give it back, yeah)
'Cause this is the tea for me
Go on and just let us be free
[Bridge]
They think they know better 'bout what's good for me, please
Sweep your own porch before you come preaching to me
They think they know better 'bout what's good for me, please
Sweep your own porch before you come preaching to me
(See) Nobody really knows it all
And most those in front of all, should sit down and learn from y'all
The lessons lie inside of the walls who still yearn to be taught
Let's get on the ball
[Chorus]
You tried that, now give it back
(You've tried that, now give it back, baby)
'Cause this is the tea for me
Go on and just let us be free (Let us be free, baby)
You tried that, now give it back
'Cause this is the tea for me (Heyyy-yeaaaahhh)
Come on and sing with me
You tried that (You've tried), now give it back (Now give it back, yeah-eah-eah-yeahhh)
'Cause this is the tea for me
Go on and just let us be free
(Let us, oh-ohhh-oh-ohh-ohh-ohhhh-ohhh)
You tried that, now give it back
'Cause this is the tea for me
Come on and sing with me
[Outro]
You tried that, yeah
Tried that (Yeah)
Yeah-yeah
You tried that, yeah
