Rico D. Fade - Orchids

No chainlinks. You have the key
Can you take me to that sacred place of cynicism?
There seems to be a lot more wisdom on that side
Can I? Can you?

Help me retain my sanity, need a little entertainment
Too much on my plate, no room for complications
Dedication overrated. Red dress, pearl whites illuminate across the bar though
My eyes like woah, who that? Bet her Facebook profile pic a Snapchat photo
See her take her six shot, she can hold her own
Was it destiny compelling me to step up?
Don't give a fuck about the Berlin Iron Curtain of your homegirls
Yelling yass towards the bottle service
Speakers blasting "Big Pimpin'"
Sip whiskey, no simping
Risk of reopening scars, the pain I'm no stranger to it
Need that cleanse, miss me with that dependency shit
Need Hennessy. Shit, call a genie make a wish
Let's skip the friendship, get down to business
Lights, neon pink. I need that pink
We could be in sync if it's gonna be me at the end of this one night
Even if it ends with a bye bye bye, or we spend a little more time on this
Honestly, don't matter if you hate my guts within a month like all the other ones
No stress when the one don't exist
Just several who make you never wanna leave the mattress

Lately feeling distant
Pull me back in the moment
Recalibration, reboot
Booty call started off as butt dial
All these trials I have gone through
It is just me and you and the vibe in this room
Time don't exist right now, gotta let it bloom
From the bright side of this crescent moon
She lovin them orchids, baby
Homegirl what you doin?
She bathe in them orchids, baby
Dropping all them clues
She love in them orchids, baby
We love in the orchids, baby
Can I stay till the morning, baby?
Can I stay til the morning? (Shine)
It's not that important if I don't

This don't mean much. The memory enough to sustain this
"Notebook" told me all it took was patience
Tech age, let me throw in for many sweepstakes
Tinder swipes, yelling timber
As she fell for the 6'0
Kindling is really going off
Just chemical reactions at the end of the day
So why did we choose not to stay home anyway?
Girl this aint no poem, get your clothes off
Saying I go hard
But "Ricochet, how your skin so soft despite battle scars? It ain't easy to forget"
"I was betrayed too, can Fade make it better?"
Ain't looking for commitment, I agree
She could recite The Psalms, but it's all "Oh god" when I'm palming the pussy
Roman numerals on her ribs like a Rocky flick
Let me show you how winning is done
Feeling magnificent, but willing to cut the limb
Call it done before it gets way too toxic
Where my ambition is suddenly arrogance
And my energy becomes obnoxious
Got ghosts from a life before us
So for tonight we summon the exorcist
Stay the course 'til the sail rips

Lately feeling distant
Pull me back in the moment
Recalibration, reboot
Booty call started off as butt dial
All these trials I have gone through
It is just me and you and the vibe in this room
Time don't exist right now, gotta let it bloom
From the bright side of this new moon
She lovin them orchids, baby
We cleanse in the orchids, baby
She loathe in them orchids, baby
Don't you know that orchids can be poisonous?
Can't let myself get close to it, but I don't give a fuck

Locked on, tuned in
Still fleeting. You wanna compromise everything?
I know better than to get involved
Should've known better than to be in love
Love is not a universal problem solver
Petals peeling back or does it decompose?
Keep composure. No closure, no crown
Enjoy the now because I'll be gone
Before you even have a chance to tear me down
