Little Simz - I See You

Would you take me as I am, overlook all my mistakes?
Though correct me when I'm wrong
Humble me, put me in my place?
Would you be the one I come to when I'm needin' an escape?
Still be my biggest fan if I cancelled all my dates?

I got shit I haven't dealt with
Would you help me through my pain?
If it's any reassurance, just know I would do the same
Lookin' at you, I know that God took His time
Hope I'm seein' the real you, not a disguise

Know I like my time alone, but still, don't wanna be lonely
Whisper in my ear and tell me you won't leave
Time flies, can't tell you how much we've spent
'Cause I'm present in this moment
Hope this feelin' never ends

Hopin' that I never wake up
'Cause in this dream I'll never be alone
You saved my life
I'm hopin' that I never wake up
Somethin' so special, we can't let it go
With you, I'll never be alone
I'm hopin' that I never wake up

Never thought you'd be so special in my life
This is love built over time, this wasn't love at first sight
When plannin' for my future, I've been keepin' you in mind
If we ever grow apart, hope our stars will realign

You know where you come from, you ain't forgotten
It's an honor to witness and watch you blossom
You want words of affirmation and I got 'em for you
No situation is perfect
But givin' up without tryin' is what we're not gonna do

I'm speakin' your love language, readin' body language
Our connection requires a deeper understandin'
Communication isn't always verbal
But energy transferred is universal

They talk it, but we put it into practice
Center each other
Makin' sure nothin' here can knock us off our axis
That's real companionship
You're as sweet as molasses
Intelligence that's matched with beauty in all its facets

Here to see us goin' forwards and never backwards
Anyone that's in our presence sees the clear attraction
Past situations didn't work
And someone done the hard graft
Just for you to reap the benefits
But that's what happens

My God, been lookin' divine lately, hydrated, melanated
Don't like the fuss
But this deserves to be celebrated
There's just a certain flex that comes with feelin' exhilarated
Ain't it just the best, ownin' it
Knowin' you've elevated?

Hopin' that I never wake up
'Cause in this dream I'll never be alone
You saved my life
I'm hopin' that I never wake up
Something so special, we can't let it go
With you, I'll never be alone

I'm hopin' that I never wake up
'Cause in this dream I'll never be alone
You saved my life
I'm hopin' that I never wake up
Something so special, we can't let it go
With you, I'll never be alone

I'm hopin' that I never wake up
