What I Gave Up for Love

I could rewind JUST Chance the Rapper’s verse and be contented forever. The words hit me so hard….

Who are you to tell me I can’t love you
The way mothers love daughters?
The way Mary was closest to Joseph
And babies is close to The Father
You don’t know me and love got a secret hand shake
And mad inside jokes
I could tell it’s knock knock when my heart beatbox
Use your inside vox
Who are you to tell me I don’t want you
The way flesh wants freedom
The way greed love need, the way kings need kingdoms
You don’t know what I know, what I’m capable of
What I slaved for and traded in favours
And gave up for you what I gave up for love
