Soon as I asks the question, why does love have to be so damn complicated?
'Soon as I' is the second collaborative release of Sydney's MC Connect and Kenyan native, Sr. Malakai.
lyrics
MC Connect & Sr. Malakai - Soon As I
Sr.Malakai
Soon as I’ve fallen in love, I’m leaving you,
Lenny go pack up your bags cause I think it’s true,
I cannot do this for long, cause I’m missing out yeah,
Good luck, good luck my friend, I will see you, see you sometime,
It’s the way you made me feel natrip niki kuwazaa,
And the patience that is left naskia ina niwasha,
So I loved you, I loved you, but goodbye,
I loved you, I loved you but goodbye,
MC Connect
Yo, back it up for a second,
Now you’re living on a prayer, soon to be a life legend,
Your love life turned to a life lesson,
But do you feel the tug, moving in the right direction?
I practice introspection, only way I’m seeing you is seeing me in my reflection,
So I’m showing me affection, just breathe and I’m at ease.
Kept it clean like a Doc with the scalpel,
Solid record like I’m Manny with the southpaw,
You made me lucky like I’m riding on a new wave,
Cruisin’ by they caught an eyeful,
Have you ever been in Paris when its high noon,
Broke my heart when I knew I couldn’t shadow you,
Hit home when I saw you in the moonlight,
Like, how you always catch me on my good side.
Sr.Malakai
Soon as I’ve fallen in love, I’m leaving you,
Lenny go pack up your bags cause I think it’s true,
I cannot do this for long, cause I’m missing out yeah,
Good luck, good luck my friend, I will see you, see you sometime,
It’s the way you made me feel natrip niki kuwazaa,
And the patience that is left naskia ina Niwasha,
So I loved you, I loved you, but goodbye,
I loved you, I loved you but goodbye,
MC Connect
So I wrote this letter so you understand,
Way I left you on ghost, I’m a bad man,
Explain why I must, only God can, only God can, only God can,
And I broke your heart like I knew I would,
I would take it back if I thought I could,
But I can’t though, so I gotta go.
