Lately
Felonious Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
that I met back in the day we had a child together
crazy I was nice with her.
I remember thinking she was cute
the kinda cute that wasnt right for resuit.
you know why because I had a girlfriend and that was that
I probably had it like that but never had it like
some conscience bonds performed and real friendships made.
she had a man too which made it safe
cause she ain't trying to be a sneak and I ain't down to be a snake
so whenever innocently on a plateau
and what I didn't know then
I certainly got know now .
we lived together danm there come alive
what we got is organic cause its real
and its right when its wrong its aight it ain't okay when its right.
finally a common bond between truth in life .
its deep love my bride to be.

lately lately you mean something to me.
