"$EPARATION" lyrics

Let me tell you 'bout the day she was proposed to
She was bright-eyed, she knew he was supposed to
She wore his favorite dress to make the moment photo-proof
Truly a moment in time
A dream coming true

To give some context, she never been opposed to
This one dude in his life that used to roll through
His close brother, once friends. Now, split a rose in two
'Cause on the low, she been seeing old dude

But anyway. Back to a picture-perfect sunny day
He ain't even arrive. She already gave it away
Then he pull up in an all-white pick-up

He don't wait
He hop out, he's on foot, he's on knee proposing
"Will she marry me or bury me?
I wore her favorite scars on me
Embarrassing."
She says she just a product of bad parenting
But if she knew what I knew, she'd be scared of me
'Cause I talked to little Jeremy
2000 years ago

He wanted to give her a necklace
I told him, "Let her go."
He told me, "It's nothing but harmless."
I see the way it chokes

Fast-forward. I see stains on her garments
I parted tides-to-go
I know she has ways of a harlot
I let my scarlet flow
I let my scarlet flow

Time to let it off my heart
Too much light inside of me
Invite her out the dark
"Church, will you marry me?"
She slowly starts
Crying the waves
I tried to save her from inside the ark

And she tells me, "Yes, yes," but she looks alarmed
Not a smike but a tragedy
Sits like a mark
She playing nervous on the surface
As she plays the part
As I look down, all I see is a chip in her arm

Let me tell you 'bout the day she was proposed to
