Could Lyrics by Devin Leslie

Naptown In the Winter

2017

Contrary to belief, I do prefer to keep the peace
Arrest your attention like police
You say you ain’t seen me in a week
I prefer to keep it simple and not complicated
That’s why I’m always going out when you say “let’s stay in,”
That’s why I push the issue when you say “let’s wait,” and
I don’t wait for shit, girl, and I know you hate it
Don’t be naive, you’re not my destination
You know I’m bound to go some other places
I done fell in love twice, and I done been jaded
Yesterday’s a dream that I ain’t chasin'
I ain’t here to calm your spirit or to placate ya
You experienced love, now you can say that
You’re thinking of giving up, how could you say that?
You’re tired of just being fucked, could you explain that?
Could
You explain that?
Could
Could you explain that?
Could
You explain that?
Could
Could you explain that?
You gon’ make me take some drastic measures
If you don’t relax
Gotta balance out the pain with pleasure
When you got a boulder on your back
You been tied down, you been tethered
To some mediocre shit
Now there’s a change in the weather
Baby have you noticed it?
Rest in peace to all who are fallen
Lord knows I do the best I can
I practice patience as a virtue
And I mix it with a little bit of sin
Think I’m done with white girls for a while
God help you if you let one in
Smoke half a ounce and sell off the rest
Inhale, let it go all through my chest
Need a little woman, bout five-six, bronze skin, nice ass
I don’t care about the rest
It’s all downhill after me baby girl
Despite how you might protest
And even if the sun don’t rise
I live for the night treat life like a test
You are what you eat, and you eat a lot of dick
You’re a ho, you’ll remain that
You say you’re tired of just being fucked
Could you explain that?
Could
You explain that?
Could
Could you explain that?
Could
You explain that?
Could
Could you explain that?
