Figure It Out

When we speak my speech is laced with frustration

I feel like we're having two different conversations

I say I wanna be with you until the end

And you say I would make a really nice friend

Well, I ain't trying to be rude, so don't slam the door

I got a phone full of friends, I don't need one more

It's like I got a spike in my throat, woman you're hurting me

I'm feeling like a sucker airing out my insecurity

And I don't think you know I feel this way

Because I'd rather stay silent than reveal the pain

But I knew I wanted you from my very first glimpse

Damn, I wish I wasn't such a wimp

Cuz then I would open up my chest, lay my heart up on the table

And let you see the way I feel for you is not a fable

I could touch a thousand lovers, your embrace would still haunt me

I'm playing cheap tricks cuz I want you to want me

Five people wrapped up in one person

Or maybe one person strewn about five people

I haven't figured it out yet

No, I haven't figured it out yet

The woman I love is five people wrapped up in one person

Or maybe one person spread amongst five people

I haven't figured it out yet

Well, I better figure it out quick

Apollonia moves like she's the cock of the walk

You better say your piece fast, she's not stopping to talk

She wants to be real so bad that she can taste it

But she does is surround herself with fakeness

The one that I touch that I'll never forget

But now she acts like we never met

On some next morning bump, you're madness

She continues to contribute to my sadness

She's the breaker of dreams, the maker of derivative scenes

A real winner if you know what I mean

A load of women at my shows, I'm ignoring them all

I keep my eyes on your vise, you're the belle of the ball

You know that you are, so you pay me no mind

But keep on digging for a treasure that you never will find

In the end you're going to wind up a lump of coal

While you ignore the diamond that was bearing its soul

Five people wrapped up in one person

Or maybe one person strewn about five people

I haven't figured it out yet

No, I haven't figured it out yet

The woman of my life is five people wrapped up in one person

Or maybe one person spread amongst five people

She hasn't figured it out yet

She better figure it out quick

This woman got a lot of problems, she's also got solutions

A little bit of soul, and a lot of revolution

A dark eyed gaze that'll stop your heart

And a smile so eletric it'll make it start

She plays her cards close to the chest, she's not showing

She's a poet and she doesn't even know it

Pushing all my buttons cuz she knows what moves me

And ain't afraid of nothing cuz she knows she's groovy

Talking that hip hop punk rock jargon

And moving around like she's some sort of artist

I wanna step to her but I don't know how start it

I'm practicing my excuse me's and beg your pardon's

I look into her eyes I'm feeling so invited

She wants me to grab the wheel but I don't even got my license

And quite frankly I'm a little intimidated

To drive this fine piece of machinery

I might fuck around and crash into a tree

Cause a ten car pile up or some shit

Five people, one person

One person, five people

Figure it out

Figure it out

Five people, one person

One person, five people

Figure it out

Figure it out
