I don’t know the way to act
And love talk..for that I need a translator
My communication is impatient
When I do it with a stranger
I'm losin sleep, losin wake
Contemplate which moves to make
Who’s a snake?
Hard enough to tell when most these dudes is fake
I don’t know how to trust
I’m still learning protocol
In love I was never slow to fall
Looking for a father figure I ain’t ever know at all
Do I have it figured out? I tell ‘em “yes†but it's mostly “nawâ€
I don’t know what else to do
Searching for words
Though I talk slicker than the grease that was in Elvis' do
Smart but needing wisdom
Someone show me what the hell is true
Trying to be a better man
But somehow I think I’m failing you
