Lyrics

Look For You

sipping this liquor trying to figure how things turned so quickly
I'm no drinker I'm more of a thinker that's the Virgo in me
but like these shots I like it hot long as the burn don't kill me
grad school of hard knocks I don't always learn so quickly
but I pay attention like rent either u pay or you get played
I'm a jack of all trades keep an ace of spades
gave my interest to a princess trying to be a queen
but she couldn't see what being a queen really means
and she couldn't feel that I couldn't really breathe
and she couldn't believe that I would really leave
so she continued to squeeze and she continued to scream
this the girl of my dreams so it would kill me to leave
but I had to set her free I had to let her see
she had great ingredients she just wasn't a recipe
I got to keep on moving cause that's how Brooklyn do
I gotta keep on moving but yo I'm gonna look for you

Chorus:
I will look for you
on the other side
of this mountain high
this cloudy sky
we gotta do what we gotta do
both you and I
but you are my star
and I will look for you

I tell her I love her and she says it right back
she heads to the corner sits on the couch and leans back
I try my best to make eye contact but she keeps
staring at the wall she's not trying to ignore me
just searching for a reason to stay here for me for me
see what we have goes against her better judgment
and the way she was raised when her mom was her age
she had a husband when her pop was my age they had a fam
and she's starting to understand that I'm a kind of different man
and despite how it seems when we say I love you to each other
we're saying two different things
see she's in love with what I could be
or maybe what she thinks I should be
but that's just not me
and its not all her fault I cant blame her
she probably never thought she would fall for an entertainer

Chorus

I was jus looking at them girls u had my heart in your protection
now I'm looking at them girls cause I'm starving for affection
knocked the stars out my heavens so now I'm always looking down
I didn't want none of them I was jus' looking around
but I understand its one of them things you got some growing to do
I just hope u understand some of the things I was showing you
never knew what you thought about my Flatbush philosophies
never would have thought you would have done that to me
the one who loved you hugged you we could work thru whatever
we go together like 1, 2 I deserve for you to do me better
but whatever I ain't gonna waste time wondering why
though truthfully I just wanna get drunk and cry
word is bond you hurt me mama but for real its cool
thought you were the one for me for real I still do
but I gotta keep on moving 'cus that's how Brooklyn do
but in a couple hours young flower I'm gonna look for you

Bridge
now I know we are not together
and I told you It'd get better
and I know right now Its looking l
like I lied
I ain't the only one to blame
still so lonely all the same
Like I'm going to die if don't have you by my side
I never wanted to say good bye
Only time will tell and time don't lie

always wanted a daughter jus so I could spoil her
her smile be my smile behind everything I bought her
her shine be my shine behind everything i taught her
swear to God I'm gone spoil her rotten
she be all that I am and all that her mothers not and
thought id be forgotten I ain't that type of guy
after all your court orders, your plotting telling all types of lies
if the court ordered you to tell the truth we'd all be quite surprised
nights I've cried remain a mystery like your shady maneuvers
cant change our history that's why I named her Future
no matter who to the what say what daddy not good for
when the sun rise everyday you are who daddy look for
