Ari Lennox
Talk To Me
[Intro: Ari Lennox]
Yeah
Ayy, ayy

[Chorus: Ari Lennox]
Lay it on me, pride is flowin'
How will I know, if you don't talk to me
Lay it on me, pride is flowin'
How will I know, if you don't talk to me

[Post-Chorus: Ari Lennox]
Unnecessary Quarles
My love, I'm here to give you the world

[Verse 1: Omen]
Lately we feel apart, crossing lines, arguing in public
You was gettin' loud, I tried to alter the subject
Strong woman proud, lioness with a growl
Silence wasn't ya style, say I don't make you smile
I'm preoccupied with work, eyes on the search for perfection
Don't recognize your hurt, want protection
And trust, layin' in my room, found my phone, found lust
That was tough, had a rough patch, seen me spill my guts
I get punked if my comrades
Ever saw me once cuddled up, in your arms sad
Frustrated, numb, hot to speak how I feel
Hurt people hurt people, so I gotta shield
[Bridge: Ari Lennox & Omen]
So talk like I like it (I)
No Ms. Cleo I'm no psychic, bitch (Lately we fall apart)

[Chorus: Ari Lennox with OG DAYV]
Lay it on me, pride is flowin'
How will I, know if you don't talk to me
Lay it (Lay it) on me (On me), pride is flowin' (Oh)
How will I, know if you don't talk to me

[Verse 2: OG DAYV & Ari Lennox]
Uh (OG) Where that familiar feeling? Why this love so fickled?
Why over-complicate the issue? We better together
I'm dancin' on the blade, walkin' on egg shells
Stressin' over my baby, I was thinkin' we can't fail
Plenty of fish, pull up my anchor and set sail
Chances of meeting again, slimmer than slim, uh
I recollect on times previous past
We was happily ever after, champagne in the glass
Now it's Shady in the forecast fierce
Purple haze me, I'm a savage, how my vest get pierced? (How?)
Know what it is? You made it perfectly clear
I hope you see me every time your ass look in the mirror, hmm (Ayy)

[Chorus: Ari Lennox & Omen]
Lay it on me, pride is flowin'
How will I, know if you don't talk to me (Lately we fell apart)
Lay it (Lay it) on me (On me), pride is flowin' (Oh)
How will I, know if you don't talk to me
[Outro: Ari Lennox]
Oh-oh-oh
Baby, don't push me away
I'm here to stay
