Lyrics
I took three lives that I need
Watching reruns that I believe (believe)
Oh, I need mine like I need other places I can be
And they say black folks drink Hennessy
But I want you over me in the dark, on a tree
But these days, we don't talk anymore (we don't talk these days)
We don't talk anymore
I never meant to say this, some days I don't feel like I'm the man
I fear that from the bottom
I know I do some stuff you cannot stand
Oh, baby, and now I'm walking out the ocean (alright, yeah)
I'm dripping wet and it's because I can't win
And they say black boys drink Hennessy
But I want you over me (oh, man) in the dark, on a tree
And still, I swear, never break and never fold
I hold you in my arms, remind you that you're gold
Can't feel the pain if I'm holding onto you
And still, they say
"Black folks drink Hennessy"
But I want you over me
In the dark (in the dark), on a tree
(One, two, three) Hennessy (a tree)
These days, oh, Hennessy (these days, hey)
'Cause I'm talkin' 'bout forever
But I'm talkin' 'bout, yeah, yeah (Hennessy, yeah, yeah)
'Cause I'm talkin' 'bout forever, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
See, I'm talkin' 'bout forever (Hennessy)
I'm talkin' 'bout forever (crib, Chris)
I'm talkin' 'bout forever (yeah, yeah, say, say, daddy, what you sayin' 'bout-)
I'm talkin' 'bout forever, I'm talkin' 'bout forever
I'm talkin' 'bout forever, I'm talkin' 'bout forever
I'm talkin' 'bout forever, I'm talkin' 'bout forever
I'm talkin' 'bout forever (I'm talkin' 'bout)
I'm talkin' 'bout forever (I'm talkin' 'bout forever)
I'm talkin' 'bout forever
