Can I Love

[Intro: Logic & Larenz Tate]
I wrote a bunch of letters, but (Yeah)
Thought it made me look like a fool (Uh)
Never mailed any of 'em out
Aw, yeah, I just wanna talk to you, girl
Mama, you know who you are
I just got somethin' I wanna say

[Verse 1: Logic]
Baby, do you remember
Warm summers and cold winters?
Songs by soul singers? The feelin', it still lingers
Elevated by my kiss as you melted between my fingers, baby girl
Sometimes I wish that I could just rewind this shit and take it back
I had visions, but they just fade to black
My train of thought is on a different track
When you're in love, it's hard to separate fiction from fact
Your image in my head, and I'm tryna get rid of that
But you're always on my mind like a fitted hat
Baby girl, I wanna bring it back to puppy love
When you was sent from up above to care for me
Said that you'd always be there for me
And even though you're gone, it's like you never left
'Cause you always in my heart and still take away my breath

[Chorus: Logic]
Can I love?
Baby girl, can I love?
I said, mama, can I love? (Haha)
Yeah, can I love?

[Verse 2: Logic]
I wanna laugh with you
Run the water and take a bath with you
Stay up late and watch romantic comedies
When it comes down to it, you're my heart's commodity
Yeah, uh, and now I'm feelin' like a fool
Writin' love letters that you'll probably never get
And right now I love you more than I'd like to admit
Because we're separated
Unto you, this song is dedicated
I'm love sick and I need you to medicate it
Feelin' devastated
I think about the past and now I hate it
'Cause all that proves is that we never made it, uh
See me and shorty got history like a textbook
But lately, our positon is changed like that sex book
Ms. Independent, she the type to hold her own
Late night, contemplatin' all alone
The kingdom is empty without the queen upon her throne

[Chorus: Logic]
Can I love?
Baby girl, can I love?
Mama, can I love?
I'ma ask you, can I love?

[Verse 3: Logic]
They say there's many more in the sea
But rather than go fish, I play solitaire
I look around and see you everywhere
But at the same, you're never there, fingers through your hair
Reminiscin' 'bout when and where
Remember when we pulled up to that spot and did it there?
See, I hate to watch you walk away, but I love to watch you cum
Baby girl, you're so lustful, then innocent when it's done
The love we share is like a fine wine
'Cause no matter what happens, it only gets better with time
Baby girl, you're so fine that I had to take the time
To articulate this rhyme with you in mind, you're so divine
And no matter who you're fuckin' with
Or no matter who I'm fuckin' with, you'll still be mine
Will we make it? I don't know
The only thing that will tell us is time

[Chorus: Logic]
Can I love?
Can I love?
Baby girl, can I love?
Can I love?
Yeah

[Outro]
It ain't s'posed to make sense
Love, passion
It is what it is
