I see you standing there knocking
See I was hoping for a locksmith
'cuz I'm locked in, no options
gotta let you in through the hole with the foxes
I know that sounds so obnoxious
You sent gifts but I'm muzzling the oxen
You sent prophets, you sent doctrine
Sent me a graphic novel full of Watchmen
but I closed it, yeah I chose this...
See me drowning in a puddle of emotions
Make yourself at home, I try to keep it tidy
its quite tiny 'cuz of all these boxes
but I see you brought chocolates
Woah, I'm feeling so thoughtless
What am I dressed in, all of this flesh man
Sorry I left you with such an impression
of me...I made the wrong investments
Still denied knowing you post resurrection
So my love song is weak
Playing with my cracked voice singing off beat...I'm hopeless
Hook:
But here I am, I gotta chance it
See I've got a chance at
Getting a glance and that's all I need
Is for you to take notice, 'cuz in romance I'm hopless (2x)

Unreal lyricism. Even though J has recently shifted his focus to rap less specifically about Christ, this album shows he can rap on whatever he wants and do it well. Austin Orth
