Letra de Mysterious Things - Brother Ali & Ant

(Feat. Ant)

I would've followed you to hell and back

In my mind, I never asked you for anything back

I came at you with love just looking for mercy

It was never your fault, the world made me unworthy

I showered you in admiration, was fascinated

Not exaggerating at all, my God, you're that amazing

Decades later, I peel back the layers

Actually traded in loyalty for your validation

You never asked to be a father to this grown-ass son

Can't fault you for the fact you never acted like one

I demanded the one thing impossible to give

If it's real, it's gotta come from within

If it's unhealthy, I know that that's at least half me

But I might just need to leave that be

Sometimes, it needs to be that growth and adjustment

The hearts are never closed, they're just under construction

But what then?

Human beings are mysterious things

It's a body with a spirit that wiggle the strings

The truth doesn't always appear as it seems

And a lot of times, hearing it stings

Human beings are mysterious things

Lot of stress with the lesson experience brings

The truth doesn't always appear as it seems

And a lot of times, hearing it stings

When you say to me, "I don't want to lead you

I want to be equals," I'm trying to believe you

If we truly are peers, I need it to appear and be clear

In our equity, respect, and our ideas

What I want to know, as far as partnership go

If you're really down to roll if you're not in control?

Do you speak to me in ways you would never be spoken to?

Control me in ways you would never be open to?

Maybe I can grow, but I'll never be grown to you

Now that I know that, what the hell am I supposed to do?

It's oh so true, I couldn't have become me without you

I also couldn't become the next me around you

Think I might be doin' better than ever before

I don't even argue with you in my head anymore

I let you win 'em all, for the record, never settled the score

That's just not an argument that I have energy for anymore

Human beings are mysterious things

It's a body with a spirit that wiggle the strings

The truth doesn't always appear as it seems

And a lot of times, hearing it stings, mm-mm

Human beings are mysterious things

Lot of stress with the lesson experience brings

The truth doesn't always appear as it seems

And a lot of times, hearing it stings

Our first relationship is with the supreme being

Whatever language it is you use for the source of meaning

All the pain and the anger and questions

I hope they graduate to gratitude and acceptance

The second is the bond that we build with our own selves

Lifetime of trauma, memories, and our folktales

Hope you feel at home in the hole where your soul dwells

From your receding hairline to your toenails

We mix it with the mamas and our first romances

Our childhood circumstances and our chances

You glance at the surface, below it, there's a universal load

That you carry to the banquet before the first hello

There's a universe going on inside us all

It's always tryna unite and divide us all

That's the factory setting, it's just by default

Just trying to reflect a little light is all

Yes, y'all

Human beings are mysterious things

It's a body with a spirit that wiggle the strings

The truth doesn't always appear as it seems

And a lot of times, hearing it stings, yadda I mean?

Human beings are mysterious things

Lot of stress with the lesson experience brings

The truth doesn't always appear as it seems

And a lot of times, hearing it stings
