There has to be something more

(Verse 1)-My dissection of you
did not stop
when I seen your face,
I always knew there was more,
so I cut deeper in place,
critiquing your exterior
as I longed for inner peace,
I want your beauty,
but the mind is what blinds me,

scaring my pupil,
and my cornea's perception,
miss sunshine
there's no misconception,
because I always knew,
That there was more
behind the eyes of you

(Chorus)-You think your beauty
is the only thing
I care about,
But girl let me tell you
that that's not
What it's all about,
I want what's behind your eyes,
Girl I will never tell you lies,
This is not a shallow brain
Knocking at your door,
There has to be something more,
Baby there has to be some more

(Verse 2)-When I first seen you
sure there was an agenda,
Because my plan was to cut,
And slice the shallow part of you,
Because I always hoped that
there was a deeper meaning,
Something more than the fact
That your eyes are pretty blue,

There was so much more
that I desired
than your complexion,
I wanted to open your surface,
and expose
Your true perception,
because I always knew,
that there was more
behind the eyes of you

(Chorus)-You think your beauty
is the only thing
I care about,
But girl let me tell you
that that's not
What it's all about,
I want what's behind your eyes,
Girl I will never tell you lies,
This is not a shallow brain
Knocking at your door,
There has to be something more,
Baby there has to be some more

(Bridge)-Your exterior
does not define
Who you really are
So my purpose
is to cut into you
Without leaving a scar,
I will do it through my words,
Because they're as sharp
as machete,
You thought I was shallow,
But girl I am ready,

(Echoes fading back into chorus)
Girl I am ready,
Girl I am ready
