Verbalize: Jeopardy

(album: Sankofa - 2021)

I know you got a lot of buttons
Sometimes I just don't know which ones to push
Been said ladies are like an oven
So it may take a little longer to cook
A man just wants to get to eating
See all he need is just a sprinkle of seasoning
And what we talking about for drinking?
The right amount of fat around the meat and let's go

What can I do to make it faster (go)
So that I understand the pain in you
I ain't got the kind of apparatus (no)
That makes everything I'm looking at see-through
Throwing clues way out my range won't make it better
All these games will just delay us and upset us
Spell it out for me

U know I just can't read your mind
Why u mad? Use your words
U see how hard I'm trying
So why this game of jeopardy tonight
Baby just verbalize
I'll take what's on this mind of yours?
For a thousand stacks, I bet on that
U need to make it clear for sure
Why this game of jeopardy tonight
Just V.E.erbalize my baby

I feel u cut me on the low low
U say u good but you're really boiling inside
I'm still coming through with positive vibes though
But you always find a way to say you're dissatisfied
Sometimes you speak another language
Yeah it's English but still foreign to me
Forever going thru the same shit
To say I should know gives me no clarity (let's go)

What can I do to make it faster (go)
So that I understand the pain in you
I ain't got that kind of apparatus (no)
That makes everything I'm looking at see-through
Throwing clues way out my range won't make it better
All these games will just delay us and upset us
Spell it out for me

U know I just can't read your mind
Why u mad? Use your words
U see how hard I'm trying
So why this game of jeopardy tonight
Baby just verbalize
I'll take what's on this mind of yours?
For a thousand stacks, I bet on that
U need to make it clear for sure
Why this game of jeopardy tonight
Sweet baby just verbalize, do you remember

You see I can recall, when we used to have an issue we would take our time
If I took a fall, you had such patience, u were gracious baby we had a ball
So can we get involved in that again

U know I just can't read your mind
Why u mad? Use your words
U see how hard I'm trying
So why this game of jeopardy tonight
Baby just verbalize
I'll take what's on this mind of yours?
For a thousand stacks, I bet on that
U need to make it clear for sure
So why this game of jeopardy tonight
We could V.E.erbalize my baby
