Love & Sacrifice

(album: Apologies In Advance - 2018)

Uh, yeah
Love is all about
Love is all about
Love is all about

Said love is all about passion (passion)
Loyalty and honesty, the matches (matches)
Difficult, how many of us have it (have it)
Purpose in this world of ours
Curtains over your mirage
Wonderful the world of ours, tragic (tragic)
Mama dearest try to deviate the sadness
Surprise, surprise
I pray to God for whatever's inside my mind
What you really want? You can have it in time, due time
Go ahead and practice (practice)
Iverson, the mighty can inhabit (inhabit)
Castles, a hundred acres over lavish (lavish)
Scenery the great escape
To be more than good or great
Tell me everything it takes
Madness (madness)
Push me to the edge, sanity and ashes
Divide, divide
A couple lies that'll trigger my pride to rise
Floating to the sky, bring me down when it's time to fly
But I know...

Love is all about sacrifice
No, no
Love is all about sacrifice (Love and sacrifice)
Mmm, no, no
Love is all about
Love is all about
Said love is all about

Said love is all about patience (patience)
Kindness over blindness, the embraces (embraces)
Slowly been declining over ages (ages)
Changes on this lonely road
Pressure to adapt or fold
Holding on to what I know
Rage is (rage is)
Slipping through the cracks
Breaking through the cages
Goodbye, goodbye
I feel a high coming by
And decide, decide
Will I be a vessel
Or continue to hide for life?

Go ahead and face it (face it)
Courage over cowardly engagement (engagement)
Protection, trustworthy through the flames (flames)
Perseverance meeting clearance
I reach into what's dear inside
Pulling up my favorite pride
Shameless (shameless)
Letting go and letting God turn the pages
I tried, I tried
I got a problem with resolving the higher times
Floating to the sky, bring me down when it's time to fly
'Cause I know...

Love is all about sacrifice
No, no
Love is all about sacrifice (Love and sacrifice)
Mmm, no, no
Love is all about
Love is all about
Said love is all about
Said love is all about

Love is all about sacrifice
No, no
Love is all about sacrifice (Love and sacrifice)
Mmm, no, no
Love is all about
Love is all about
Said love is all about
Said love is all about

And I don't know what lies in your heart
It feels like we're slowly falling apart
Can we go back to the start?
Can we go back to the start?
Can we go back to the part
When it was you and I?
No harm, no lie, oh my

I came with all these lies in the dark
Without you I just might lose my heart
Can we go back to the start?
Can we go back to the start?
Can we go back to the part
When it was you and I?
Let go, let God, alright

I don't want to die
Too many nights I've spent alive, let me in God
Both arms stretched wide
I might just cry from all the price that will end up
All I wanted was to love
Let me love, let me love
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Love and sacrifice
Love and sacrifice
Love and sacrifice

But
I don't want to die
Too many nights I've spent alive, let me in God
Both arms stretched wide
I might just cry from all the price that will end up
All I wanted was to love
Let me love, let me love
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Hm, hm, hm, hm, hm
Stretched wide
I might just cry from all the price that will end up

[Kendrick Lamar:]
When are we gonna understand
That we are put on Earth to love
That's all it's about
Everybody wanna figure out
How complicated life is
And break it down
This is what I truly think
I really think that
It's gonna keep going on
War gonna keep going on
Frustration gonna keep going on
Anger gonna keep going on
'Til we finally go back down
To the simplest word:
Love
