Badlees - 90 percent of The Time lyrics

rate me

(naydock)

Ten times I stopped by

'cause she said to stop by

Nine times we flowed

Like good rhythm and rhyme

I was a good ear

A welcome companion

90% of the time

She was from baltimore

Recent divorcée

From a man who found fortune

In pool installation

And you could get close

In a way she could manage

But never encounter the breadth of her station

'cause she couldn't ever

Betray independence

Her independence was a personal sign

This is for someone who let me inside

90% of the time

She worked the counter

Down at second street video

She'd rent releases

She could empathize watching

Woman would triumph

Assimilation

That she felt good was the thing

Yeahno time for sympathy

Or mock conventions

No chance to leave personal items behind

I was a witness

She let scratch the surface

90% of the time

'cause she couldn't ever

Betray independence

Her independence was a personal sign

This is for someone who let me inside

90% of the time

Tenth time around

It came unexpected

Though I'd play scenarios

For a week till that day

I had felt something

She said she felt the same thing

And we knew that that wouldn't play

Wellmaybe she lied

And maybe she had to

'cause maybe I'd found

What I hadn't yet seen

But there in the doorway

The moment had brought us

To a place she rarely had been

'cause she couldn't ever

Betray independence

Her independence was a personal sign

This is for someone who let me inside

90% of the time
