Recollections of Love's Illusions
Lyrics
I remember those days when I was out there on my own
I recall the days when I was alone and independent.
Had no one checking for me, had no place to call my home
I had no one supporting me and no place to call home.
You came with perfect timing, gave me something to hold
You entered my life at the perfect moment, providing me with something meaningful to hold onto.
But I remember momma saying, things that glitter ain't always gold
Despite this, I remember my mother cautioning that attractive things may not always be valuable.
How could we lose if what we doin' is between me and you?
Questioning the possibility of failure when our actions are confined to just us two.
We been mixing all the pudding with the proof, yeah
We've been combining effort with evidence, possibly referring to making a substantial effort with tangible results.
Got the game in choke hold and a noose, yeah
Asserting dominance in the game and maintaining control, possibly facing challenges.
So I don't understand how you got confused
Expressing confusion about someone getting misled despite the established control.
How can you not remember?
Questioning how someone could forget.
Your heart done turned colder than December
Observing a change in someone's emotional warmth, comparing it to the coldness of December.
The way you acting now I know you fed up
Recognizing frustration in the way someone is currently behaving.
Tryna work it out, I learned my lesson
Attempting to resolve issues but having learned a lesson from past experiences.
I heard that diamonds come form pressure
Referencing the idea that valuable things, like diamonds, are formed under pressure.
But somehow we losing ground and you know I held it down for you
Despite efforts, there is a sense of losing ground, and the commitment is acknowledged.
If I'm a dog then let me fetch you
If being perceived as someone unfaithful, then willing to comply like a loyal companion.
I took the muzzle off my mouth, so I know you hear me now
Vocalizing thoughts without restraint, expecting to be heard.
I remember those days when I was out there on my own
Recalling a time of solitude and self-reliance.
Had no one checking for me, had no place to call my home
Highlighting the absence of support and a place to belong.
You came with perfect timing, gave me something to hold
Acknowledging the positive impact of someone entering life at the right moment.
But I remember momma saying, things that glitter ain't always gold
Remembering a cautionary statement from the mother about the true value of attractive things.
How could we lose if what we doin' is between me and you?
Raising a rhetorical question about the possibility of failure in their shared endeavors.
We been mixing all the pudding with the proof, yeah
Continuing to combine efforts and evidence for success.
Got the game in choke hold and a noose, yeah
Asserting dominance in the game despite challenges.
So I don't understand how you got confused
Expressing confusion about someone getting misled despite established control.
How can you not remember?
Reiterating the question of how someone could forget.
Your heart done turned colder than December
Observing a change in emotional warmth, comparing it to the coldness of December.
The way you acting now I know you fed up
Recognizing frustration in the current behavior of someone.
Tryna work it out, I learned my lesson
Attempting to resolve issues but having learned a lesson from past experiences.
