This is a collaboration with my wifey, my dearest darling Yesika Starr on guitar. I heard this music and had to write a song to it.
Single young female R&B singer/poet/rapper
Yetta Brown is me...Robyn, and I mess with a bunch of different music styles. I sing, rap a little bit, and write a lot of lyrics. Trying to get into beat-making.
Story behind the song
It's not about anyone in particular, tho the lyrics can apply to certain people I do know.
Lyrics
Baby darlin'
You're putting the weights on your feet
I feel you slippin' further
into the deep
I'm grippin' harder
Cutting my hands with the rope
Catchin' my heart in my throat
to maintain control
Cuz see baby I, I, I
I can't let you go
Oh no, no and I won't
I can't
Let go
Oh no no no no no
And I just can't see why
At the bottom, you feel comfortable
How breathin' in snow
Erases the cold
Or why you're pulling at the rope
Draggin' me down, u keep on draggin' me down the slope
I'm losin' my mind
Copin' with your heavy high
But baby I, I, I
I can't let you go
Oh no no, I might try, but I won't
I can't
Let go
Oh no no no no no
Oh no no no no no
Oh no no no no
I want you back the way you used to be
not constantly aboard the swing
Propelling high, then back down low
Dear, don't you know
The way to go is here in my arms that have a hold
on a kind soul that I used to know
that I believe still sees behind the eyes that
Blink back the urge to cry
But I
I am your shoulder
I am here for ya, oh
And I hope you know
That you're not alone
U can come home to me
When you're lonely
Need a homie
Some consoling when trouble is tolling
Cuz I
I, I, I
I, I, I, I, I
I, I, I
I can't let you go...no
Even when you're not yourself I see the good
I wish I understood
I wish I understood
And we've been through so much
I won't loosen my clutch, naw babe
We can fix this
We can fix it
We can start fresh
squeaky clean
