Brother Bakari takes the dress-code conversation in a different direction: if we are talking about respect, standards, and self-presentation, why don’t we also talk about the language we use with each other?

Lyrics:

Is this what it feels like
To be loved like this?
I don’t know but it feels right
And it’s just one kiss
Falling in love inna real life
Ignorance sure feels like bliss
Cause I’ve been missing out
But you’re with me now and I’m
Just so grateful for your love

Re-reading conversations
And smiling off my face
Laughing at the way you say things
You’ve really got a way
Reliving every moment
Looking forward to the day
I won’t have to let you go
Just hold me close

Is this what it feels like
To be loved like this?
I don’t know but it feels right
And it’s just one kiss
Falling in love inna real life
Ignorance sure feels like bliss
Cause I’ve been missing out
But you’re with me now and I’m...

Aye, you ever wake up
And cya think ‘bout no meal
Becau’ you weak inna yuh knees
And caught up inna yuh feels
You eva fed up and haffi rewrite yuh speech
Is like the feelings too real
You all a send and delete
You ever lay down but cyaa sleep a night
Like without we one another, no, da bed ya no nice
Feel a yearning
Fire burning
Tell me have you ever been in love

Is this what it feels like?
To be loved like this
I don’t know but it feels right
And it’s just one kiss
Falling in love inna real life
Ignorance can feel like bliss
But I’ve been missing out
But you’re with me now and I’m
Just so grateful for this love

Just so grateful
