Strange Love [explicit] Lyrics - Mick Jenkins

So is there only one healing component, which is love? 

Yeah I think...you know, like I said that's what Jesus was down here to show us, 

that is literally what he showed us, 

like that's what- what his purpose was on this Earth. Umm, spread love and spread God's message and, and...eventually his love for us is what led him to die on the cross 

Was never here to lessen your glow 

I wanna see it intensified 

I wanna see my niggas learning lessons and attempting to grow 

I see my cousin whip get hit from the side, they swiss cheesed it 

In a swift moment most niggas would misread it as well 

When your dealings not as well as you've been meaning to tell 

Can't tell me nothing fam, I've seen it myself 

Walked away from niggas needed my help 

I mean how I'ma give you what I clearly still need for myself? 

Underwater tryna breathe for myself 

Going deep so the pressure is massive 

Really tryna be a saint, but I ain't Drew Brees I never been that passive 

Always been this pensive 

Niggas claiming that I'm changing cause my clothes ain't always been expensive 

Always been eccentric 

Never been as fake as but it came to extensions 

The poems always been extensive 

See this story hasn't yet been stenciled 

Or adapted to some whack ass Tyler Perry minstrel movie 

I detest the pretentious bougie 

Motherfuckers whose presence I digest like meat 

I'm vegetarian let's digress to some shit that move me 

Tell shawty if we kick it then I'm just like Kangol 

Girl I'm at your kufi 

Introspective questions, hope you ain't no goofy 

What you think about the black man? 

Tell me what you know about love 

Ain't no right or wrong answer 

I just know we could go deeper it's a story, every stanza 

Gotta speak in allegory, spread love the new mantra 

It's the healing component, it's the healing component 

It's the light for the evils like a fucking patronus 

Standing banded with my brothers, black Nicholas Jonas 

Fuck my last name them hoes used to own us 

No weapon formed against me, please don't even walk up on us 

Dunkin Donuts in my coffee cause I been smelled the Folger's 

I just walked in on you bitch, smell the doja 

What's the basis? All these racist motherfuckers out here raping the culture 

On the lowest of keys, they sowing hate for ourselves then throw bait 

To kill and appropriate, they vultures 

Ain't immune to reproach 

Have your fucking hands up if you choose to approach us 

Fuck around with the fuck around, we still might shoot

So please don't lose the love we made 

So please don't lose the love we made 

Don't fade away, don't fade away, don't fade away 

Don't fade away, don't fade away, don't fade away 

How could a black man not be confused in this? 

Used to hang from them trees, we abusing them now 

Sons and our daughters used to follow in the footsteps of our fathers 

But we losing them now 

On our own scene of Lackawanna Blues for him 

How society not bruise your mental? 

Both claim Jesus, we Jews and gentiles 

I cruise at two miles an hour 

I hope everybody gets to see the love 

So please don't lose the love we made 

So please don't lose the love we made 

Don't fade away, don't fade away, don't fade away 

Don't fade away, don't fade away, don't fade away

Never changing, despite if he gets on your nerves or not. Despite if she, you know, doin' that time, or not. 

And she's just getting on your nerves. 

It's unconditional, and never ever changes. 

If I say I love you that means I'm gonna love you forever, that's just, that's something you have to equate with forever. 

Never change it...
