Brown Tapes - Diamonds

I wanna try and see if my hands gon' reach the sea
I wanna try and find, I color outside the lines
Detecting imperfection, you're perfect in my eyes
Howl at the moon, cruisin' altitude as time flies
Listen very closely how the wind cries at high tides
A lonely sculptor has a lack of marble senses, finely crafted magnum opus
Even tools gon' feel this tension
Problems make sense only after we cry
We just need a little rain and the passage of time
The core of the problem really ain't a perfect system
Between you and I is a little harmony and rhythm
When I think on it, I dance and when I feel it, I smile
Sometimes I see impostors, I know it just ain't your style
You don't fall in love with stealth, addicted because you're wild
A heart made of metal, if they ain't told you, it's gold
You can't copy a misfit because you're breaking the mold

Flaws inside my diamonds and there's tangles in chains
And the details inside promises are destined to change
Come back to a home that loves you in spades
Return journeys home are good for the heart and good for the brain
Flaws inside my diamonds and there's tangles in chains
And the details inside promises are destined to change
Come back to a home that loves you in spades
Return journeys home are good for the heart and good for the brain

Legend has it that he turned into a Sensei
Baked and cooked perfection, he's a walking talking cheesecake
Smooth beats and guitar that's even smoother
Tambourine man got jams that'll keep you groovin'
Kenny always AyDo, tracks the road to El Dorado
A nature walk to greatness, if you got him then he got you
Brian got them keys that open up any lock
He gets to ticklin' the ivories and you don't know where to chop
I really wanted everything, I'm touchin' the stars
And when the moon smiles back, I realize where we are
Respect the imperfections celebrated in art
We over here getting Tibetan before we even hit start
In my life I've learned, yo why ask why?
Just drift into the shore with your back to the tide
I want more
No, you don't and no, you can't
Work with what you got and be happy with what you have

Flaws inside my diamonds and there's tangles in chains
And the details inside promises are destined to change
Come back to a home that loves you in spades
Return journeys home are good for the heart and good for the brain
Flaws inside my diamonds and there's tangles in chains
And the details inside promises are destined to change
Come back to a home that loves you in spades
Return journeys home are good for the heart and good for the brain
