Poetry Tamia

He said, it's like the grass that grows between the cracks of ghetto streets
Relentless, in spite of, the never lasting
I said, baby, damn you got lyrics
(Make it like)
Make it like, poetry

(Verse)
The thugged out, pimped out, images release them
Save those roles for the young souls who believe them
I want the undefinable, indescribable, and more
But yet so clear when you walk through that door
I said, I want it hard, mystical, tender and correct
Without expectations but all of them met
Take me around the world but please come direct and
Speak to me, speak to my heart

(Chorus)
(Make it like) Poetry
Make it like poetry, poetry, poetry
Give your flow slow to me, give it all night
Make it like poetry, poetry, poetry
Everything wrong you see make it alright
Make it like

(Verse)
Kisses of raindrops wash away the pain
Each stroke's a journey on a long train to a
New destination a new meditation of love
A realization of possibilities he says to me
I've given hard, mystical, tender and correct
Without expectations yet all of them met
Take me around the world but please come direct and
Speak to me, speak to my heart
