Look But Don’t Touch

[Verse 1]
He was a young man in his prime
Twenty-five but had already bagged a dime
They were serious, together five years
But he was still curious ‘bout the life of his peers
See they were all single, he was locked down
Liked to mingle but loved his girl and child
Forgot to mention his son, three years of age
At times he felt trapped but mostly enjoyed his cage
Of course he raps so he live life on the stage
Town to town, going weeks without getting laid
Even though at every show, you know, it’s that one, tryna kick it in your room and have some fun
Body banging like a bass line, you know the type
Knows your songs and checking your plans for the night
It’s 3am so he knows the deal for real
Temptation’s ill but he knows he needs to chill
Look but don’t touch

[Verse 2]
She was a young woman with a plan
Twenty-two but had already found a man
He twenty-five, kinda met him playing with his band
After a set, stepped off stage and took her hand
Just wanted to talk, wasn’t tryna get in her pants
The beautiful conversation was a slow dance
Five years later, she moves in, he’s on the road more than she would like but you know that’s how he gets his dough
Home alone days, weeks, even months at a time
She tries to stay busy but trouble races through her mind
Assure of what he’s doing while the sun rise
His voice on the phone are here to dry her raining eyes
The girl was fine so she always met guys
They sit and talk and every now and then one tries
But her and her man they built that trust
It may be hard but she knows to look but don’t touch
