The Moon Cave Lyrics

[Intro: Asha Puthli, Bobby Womack]

(Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)

Love me, love me, love me, love me

Love me, love me, love me, love me

(Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-hoo)

Love me, love me, love me, love me

(Watching, watching)

Love me, love me

[Verse 1: 2D]

To the Moon Cave

Where I bought my tears

Lit the lantern

On my childhood fears

(You must wash your perfume from your body)

If you're leaving (If you're leaving)

Don't make it harder than it is

Let me know (Let me know)

So I can say goodbye

(You must wash your perfume from your body)

[Chorus: 2D]

Ooh, the things I swore I'd never become

And at the vastness of the river

In the cradled light, they've done me

(You must wash your perfume from your body)[Verse 2: 2D, Asha Puthli]

Why am I taking so long?

Why my voice not strong now?

It's been cut

You will never recognise me again

Have you traveled on a moonbeam?

(You must wash your perfume from your body)

[Chorus: 2D]

Ooh, the things I swore I'd never become

And at the vastness of the river

In the cradled light, they've done me, but

Ooh, I need, I need a better bond with you

Oh, but that's if forever's coming

Where the atoms gone with you

[Bridge: Jalen Ngonda, Black Thought]

Things I swore I'd never become

Yes, please

Like a broken man

Grinning beginnings

Who realised what he has done

One time from the top

[Verse 3: Black Thought, Trugoy the Dove]

Yo, I can float like a butterfly, gimme any topic

I let it slide

Bet you I'ma float like I'm in the sky, look at how I drop it

When I let the ideas just float up high like a new hot topic, good to be a goat

Only way I float is to treat it like it's gossip and drop it, yeah, watch this

Yo, I can float like no other god, gimme any topic

I let it ride, bet you I'ma float like I've been a vibe, I'ma just drop it, yeah, check it

Yo, I get telescopic for profit

When I float topic to topic

Is it hip hop? Is it Gothic?

Can it fit into the corner pocket?

Is it hovering above the surface?

Is the pain where the megahertz is?

Where the masjid, where the church is?

Are the last days where the earth is?

It's a movie, listen to me

They have given the permission to me

To move like Mr. Halloumi

If I leave here, don't pursue me

Let me float topic to topic

From the posh tip to the mosh pit

To the ghosts watching the folks clockin'

The most popular optics

Spread it all 'round, from the small town

To the empires, finna fall down

From the energy that brung the wall down

Or the mothership gon' call down like Orson

The heat gon' be scorching

The beat gon' need voices

The sound downright awesome

What downtown like

Different than the sounds y'all like

Lemme break it down for 'em like

Uh, hol' up[Outro: Bobby Womack]

Maybe I should just wait, just a little bit

Forgetting bothers me

Haha, ooh

Remember
