"Hush In the Garden: Shut the Fukk Up and Listen"

Shhh in the garden
in other words my baby wanted me to shut the fukk up and listen
Hushed in the garden a time for grown men to sit up like a child and
pay attention.
Who ever learned anything from talking?
Shhh
listen...
then she told me about the days I went astray
instead of coming straight home from work
fukk if the game was on today
I should've never left my baby alone
She let me know that my friends are just that
but on Valentine's Day we owns that kitty cat?
and I added "baby you're so damned right about that"
Shhh
hush in the garden
shut the fukk up and listen

and so I did
she said there's a plan for both of us
because in God we will always trust
and just like neither one of us has to worry about if's
if nothing because nothing like if will ever happen
it's just sometimes she felt I need to calm down
calmate she says to me
something about the summer time when the young girls come around
come out relaxed and got freight trains running off they tracks
and men we sometimes forget to we grown
gone crazy over some hazel contacts
swallow that pride in the rock
soften a little and come from in front of the mirror
and thats when
shhh in the garden
and so I did
I listened
She said what happened to the flowers for no reason
and the kisses that happend spontaneous, didn't need a season
What happened to her focused attention
remembered the promises I cried the first night we made love
she don't want that attention deficit disorder applied to her love
she deserved that kind that came straight from up above
and she won't settle
Neither will I in my reply

shhh
hush in the garden
shut the fukk up and listen

She didn't come at me wrong to shrink my manhood to
light a fire under my *** and hold my heart in a glass display
she pulled her grown child to the side and let him know
he can't **** up this way
and I respect that
when my baby had something to say

Hush in the garden
I had to calm down
shut the **** up and listen
and that's love

And it takes a person who is intuned to their significant other to know when they need to just shut up and listen. And the way you flowed with this, makes us all hush and pay attention. Keep the flows coming.
