Chorus (Serenata) (2x):
Smoke and mirrors
I hope it's clear that I ain't over here
To play games with you and pull your triggers
'Cause we're supposed to steer the boat and stay afloat
'Til the coast is clear
But you got me craving for your whole figure
Verse 1 (Soupherb):
Love turned into a daily routine
Missing them as teens like a grass lost its green
They have nothing new to bring, lovebirds stopped singing
From a single to two beings, but still living
Together, just that he had to find his heart new shelter
For his can no longer handle stormy weathers
Always trying to remember the spring and summer
So he tried to look for it from another
Called her everyday and always acted like it's their last day
Slowly swaying away from the reality he plays
Each day is eating him bit by bit
A rollercoaster ride down to the jaws of his conscience
Kicking in is man's science but he can't justify this
A sudden change of perspective of what love is
First time feeling is timeless
So he replaced the old with new promises
Repeat chorus
Verse 2 (Kensa):
I met this daffodil one night on occasion
I couldn't exhale out of exhilaration
We both didn't have friends at the party
So we ended up conversin 'bout jazz and the art scene
Left together without sayin adios
Blast De La Soul on the way back home
The heart skipped the beat of the drum break
'Cause this is where the "que paso" becomes "te amo"
I'm a sober fella who didn't want the toxic
But you insisted that we get a glass of gin and tonic
With the sativa blendin our saliva in the chronic
We had a mealy-mouthed kiss, shit, I could swear it was platonic
Down to sin a little bit despite our own commitments
But we refused to listen to the whisper of temptation
We ended with a friendly kiss
Now I ain't gon kiss and tell, the opposite of it:
I tell a girl before I kiss them
Repeat chorus
