"Because when it comes to love we don't really talk any more; we just rush in. We're all foolish."
E.G.S.
(original version recorded in 2010)
lyrics
Verse 1:
I-C--- with or without my glasses, I've got sharp eyes like a rabbit, listening's a bad habit/
Need attention it's not hard to grab it, it's sad cuz ya bodyguard only wanna stab it/
...Or maybe that's your type, I ain't mad; you call ya man Daddy--- doesn't make him ya Dad/
I've sat back, seein so many fall for it; babies into baby mommas, so now they gotta crawl forward/
Look... why don't you write me a book; and I can read your mind about everything it took/
For you to turn the other cheek and let him off the hook; the Moby obsession is a very hard lesson/
Maybe I ain't the one, I'm still wishing you the best, wanna wipe away the tears but ya life is still a mess, but.../
When you need me, that's when I'm at my best, and I know what to do about stress, be my guest/
Hook:
I-C-U, I-C-U...
I just want to converse...
Table for 2 sit down...
Talk to me, Lady, break it down
I-C-U, I-C-U...
I only want to converse...
Table for 2, sit down...
Talk to me, will you break it down
Verse 2:
I-C-U, you're not invisible; this isn't a text message--- something less digital/
Like a look from across the room into ya eyes cuz I can't help wondering whys/
I'm a detective in disguise, fooling myself; am I here to take you in, or am I here to help/
Can I really control the outcome, even; you're the ultimate prize, but this isn't about achievement/
Trophy without a shine, polishin' ya base; tryin not to see my own face witcha/
Tryin... not to be jealous that another might gitcha; tryna stay out the picture, not enter competition/
By any means necessary, I got a mission; collectin', ya delicate heart, so many sections/
Protectin, because I know you've witnessed so much that you don't trust, but it's cool... I won't rush/
Hook:
I-C-U, I-C-U...
I just want to converse...
Table for 2 sit down...
Talk to me, Lady, break it down
I-C-U, I-C-U...
I only want to converse...
Table for 2, sit down...
Talk to me, will you break it down
Verse3:
Why you on Oxygen when you really need air; but if you need space, we can take it up there/
Ya stingy witcha blues but, I'ma make you share; colorful language, cuz ya sittin on the anguish/
That's dangerous... you could overheat any moment; beautiful woman, make a deadly opponent/
A deadlier explosion like a bloom, widda boom... ha, you've got petals, they're sharp like metal/
And heavy when they cut, but I'm not about to let go; cuz I don't believe a single word you said, no/
Not again; you pass on a friend knowing too well how it's gonna end, don't pretend/
With no-good-so-good so attractive, self control is a hard thing to practice/
You lose control, you let him take advantage; I-C-U, I can handle it... alright/
You ain't gotta trust me, ya not supposed to; matta fact, what was it that made you trust ya old dude/
I wanna hold you, but that's selfish of me; just tell me what you need, you ain' got to love me (yet)/
...This ain't about a love connectin per se, c'mon, who wouldn't want somebody like you in the worst way/
They wanna hit it on the first day; they want a side piece--- they wanna see how much a purse weigh/
Gotta be careful letting down yo guard, but understand that it ain't supposed to be that hard/
If you could see about a real brotha playin his part; you be tryna change people witcha big ol heart/
But it's you who's changin; settling for less, mad bitterness buzzin in ya chest buildin a nest/
I know what to do about stress, be my guest passenger seat, and let ya mind rest/

Earl Grey Summers describes himself as a Musically InKlined Educator--- a teacher who also happens to pen some of the nicest
#BARS the city of Augusta has to offer. Representing one half of the group The Class Rumors, Grey is known for his very cerebral, very methodical approach to music. A self-taught beatmaker and engineer, his work comes slowly, but without fail leaves an indelible impression....more
So many colors... I'm proud of this brotha, he definitely makes the music of Augusta more wonderful to listen to. He's gonna sound real familiar... but then he's gonna sound reeeal different. Earl Grey Summers
One of the first artists I came across in my blogging who I felt truly had an ear for good music. Between his instrumentals, his vocals, and his production he always manages to create a nice groove. Earl Grey Summers
