(These words are my own, yeah yeah yeah) Threw some chords together The combination D.E.F It's who I am it's what I do And I was gonna lay it down for you I'm trying to focus my attention But I feel so A.D.D I need some help some inspiration But it's not coming easily Tryna find the magic Tryna write a classic Don't you know, don't you know, don't you know? Waste bin full of paper Clever rhymes, see ya later These words are my own From my heart flow I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you There's no other way To better say I love you, I love you Read some Byron, Shelly, and Keats Recited it over a hip-hop beat I'm having trouble saying what I mean With dead poets and drum machines You know I had some studio time booked But I couldn't find a killer hook Now you've gone and raised the bar right up Nothing I write is ever good enough These words are my own From my heart flow I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you There's no other way To better say I love you, I love you These words are my own From my heart flow I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you There's no other way To better say I love you, I love you I'm getting off my stage The curtains pull away No hyperbole to hide behind My naked sole's exposé Whoa, whoa Tryna find the magic Tryna write a classic Waste bin full of paper Clever rhymes, see ya later These words are my own From my heart flow I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you There's no other way To better say I love you, I love you These words are my own From my heart flow I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you There's no other way To better say I love you, I love you These words are my own They're from my heart I love you I love you That's all I got to say Can't think of a better way That's all I got to say I love you is that okay?
