Lyrics ::

CHORUS
Ya gotta hit him with the ABCs
Let him know what it takes to see me
Ya gotta hit him with the Doh-Rei-Mes
Keep it ace til he proves a winner

POST-CHORUS
And that’s not all,
I’m mostly paraphrasing
And if we fall
It’s cuz we made a haven

VERSE 1
3 eyes, 5D
Human
But not exclusively
Big wise, long feels
Goals wide, mostly universally
-
And baby
Know you’re checking around my way
Cuz I slay
Greater than the average
Know you’re wondering who I am:
I’m the man
Who became the maverick

PRE-CHORUS
And that’s not all,
I’m mostly paraphrasing
And if we fall
It’s cuz we made a haven
-
SPOKEN:
The typa guy to stay on your mind
So trust me, baby don’t fall in love til the right time

CHORUS
Ya gotta hit him with the ABCs
Let him know what it takes to see me
Ya gotta hit him with the Doh-Rei-Mes
Keep it ace til he proves a winner

POST-CHORUS
And that’s not all,
I’m mostly paraphrasing
And if we fall
It’s cuz we made a haven

BRIDGE
SPOKEN:
It’s been so long since I’ve opened up to anybody that
I’m gonna need some help if I’m to … to do it successfully, here with you now. So lemme know if that feels accessible to you and then we can go from there. How’s that sound?
-
Help me open up
To you
To you
Help me see the world
Through you
Through you
x4

Open up like a sunrise
After years in the night time
Open up like a sunrise
After years in the night time
x4

OUTRO-CHORUS
Ya gotta hit me with the ABCs
Let me know what it takes to be seen
Ya gotta hit me with the Doh-Rei-Mes
Keep it ace til I prove I’m better
