Thinkin Bout You/Doing it Wrong (Drake/Frank Ocean Mashup) by Alex Aiono

I had this video in my Youtube Favorites for some time and it randomly started playing. By the end of this cover song I was crying over a breakup I never had. Good music should tell a story, a truth that connects deeply. Now excuse me while I wipe my tears away and find a happier song, LOL.

Mixtapes & Weekend Escapes

You’re the best, you’re the best ____ I’ve never had.
I’m not chasing after skirts, I’m following my heart to yours.
Its been a long time coming, hasn’t it?
I don’t know why we didn’t see it before.
But regardless, I can’t get enough of you.
Oh if only you truly knew.

Hold that thought, hold back & slow your roll young blood.
Such passion is out of fashion, no one wears their heart on their sleeves anymore.
Why isn’t red the new “black” this year?
Does love really have a color?
Because if it did, I’d want mine to mix with yours until something new & fresh was created.
Some things take time to grow, while some things just take time before you even know it.

Laid back, arm wrapped; we’ve found each other many times before in this embrace.
Lips to cheek, hand on hand; we’ve said goodbye this way before.
But eye to eye & heart to heart, is somewhere we haven’t gone before.

With half my heart my embrace envelops you whole, not knowing how to let go.
And only with half the intensity do my lips meet your face for fear that I’ll reveal too much too fast.
I must have one hell of a poker face because I know that you’re not blind.
I wish I could say more, but now is not the time.
Now is not the right moment.
I’ll see you tomorrow, and maybe you’ll see me too.
Maybe, just maybe.

Move On (In You)

Attachment leads to suffering.
Maybe that’s why I’m afraid to let go and afraid to hold on too tight.
How do you move on?
I don’t want to be stuck any more.
Fear of failure has become a chain worth breaking.
I’m not ready when I don’t feel like myself.
Where courage takes flight is where I’ll be.
Venture into the unknown.

The Message (Speak Your Mind)

Yes, bravado is sexy.

Yes, strength is a turn on.

BUT, a man who can honestly articulate the matters of his heart is a keeper.

Talking about the “Game” is easy, but laying down how you feel and WHY you feel that way takes some effort. So I have to respect a man who can express himself verbally or in writing effectively.
