I want to know you for who you are
How you've grown from where you were
The transgression into your future
Set apart from your past life
Broken free of generational curses
Standing true as the strong black man that you are
A son
A brother
A father
A husband... to someone
I want to see you past the pretty lighting of the photographs
A developed picture when the flash is off
Beyond the recordings and edits
No makeup
No perfect angles
Just you in perfect truth
I want to take a trip on your spaceship
Enjoy the journey to Oasis
Strengthen our vessel with the ebbs and flows
Enjoy the visuals until the ride ends
No destination
No directions
Just travel in all its beauty and glory
Hand over hand
Pilot and copilot
Ebony and Ivory
Peaches and Cream
Bonnie and Clyde... the 2012 Bonnie and Clyde
