Parachutes

"In a haze, a stormy haze,

I’ll be round, I’ll be loving you always, always...

Here I am and I'll take my time,

Here I am and I’ll wait in line always, always..."

-Coldplay "Parachutes"

I remember when I was 13 and I fell upon this CD. Coldplay was far from my radar as I was still jamming Jay's "Blueprint" and Nas' "Stillmatic" trying to figure who was better. But in between a Real World episode, I heard "Yellow" and it was the most beautiful, poignant song I ever heard. I actually thought of The Beatles when I heard it. After that I was hooked... I needed more. In a mini library in Dumfries, VA, there is a copy of the CD. Solely because I demanded that they get it. That's it... Enough of my backstory...

Its something about this song that kinda eases my mind. Its like... Even though things are going wrong, even though the worst may happen... He's there. Always. Its a give and take with relationships. You may never agree, see eye to eye... or even get along... But the point is that, even at the end of it all... You'll be right there. Always. I mean, you fight and argue... make up and breakup... You look for reasons to leave, look for excuses to stay... But when you HAVE that person, even in the midst of uncertainty and doubt... You have a feeling... Something in your intuition that lets you know that you've made the right choice... And that feeling is like jumping out of an airplane. Where you're free falling thru the clouds... And the deafening sound of wind fills your ears and all you can see is the white from the clouds and the blue from the sky. You're falling and wondering, "Why the hell did I jump?" and then... A parachute comes out of nowhere and slows everything down... And that freefall becomes something controlled...

And that my friend is love. That's the only way to explain it. And I experience it everyday... We may fuss, argue... Deal with each others attitudes and mood swings... All that is the free fall... And knowing you made the right decision is the parachute...

I may not know that much about anything... Even if I try and act like I do... But I know ONE thing:

Here I am and I will take my time...

Here I am and I'll wait in line...

Always.

Even in a stormy haze.

#flightDELAY

After a long text conversation I had one night with...[I'd like to keep HER a secret, she's DEAR to my heart] I made a hard decision. I decided to scrap "Life @20,000 Feet". No, no... I didnt get rid of it. But I did decide to stop where I was to concentrate on "Nception"... After awhile, I just got kinda bored and wanna tackle new subjects, new fears... for a lack of better words: I just let the nightmares in... I dont consider "L@20000ft" unfinished... I look at it as if the flight is only delayed... And I think its better this way. After "NCEPTION" [Which is really a dark album while I'm thinking about it...], I think "Life @ 20000 Feet" will be a great album to go to afterwards. I just really appreciate your patience with this album... So just keep rockin wit me... I've heard some beats and I'm already "prewriting" a little bit... So I might drop some stuff here and there that wont make the album... But just stay patient...

Thanks.

A [VERSE] I Wrote for "Fall For Your Type"

[N]
Uh, I caught a glimpse of your facebook the other day...
Lookin at all the pics we took, I wondered what I should say
I thought of "Hey, how you doing?" but I wasn't really sure
My minds works in overdrive, I know you'll wonder if my feelings pure

Maybe he playing, girl he drunk... These are comments that I expect
Weeks go by, and I still havent thought of a clever message yet
Why we aint talking now? I try to think of a couple reasons...
Then I think I'll just get at you after football season

Cause when them Steelers and Ravens start to play
Lines get drawn, and we like Jamie and LL fighting on "Any Given Sunday"
Maybe I pushed myself away because I thought you were pushing back...
I thought the clever things I did went unrecognized, so I just cut the slack

We arguing more and more, and you saying I dont listen...
You saying that I'm soft but baby what is hards definition?
You dont appreciate the distance? I pushed you away?
What can one expect when you threw nothing but shade my way

U say you got messages about me and other women...
But if we never was together, then whats the problem pimpin?
I told you I wanted us defined, but its complicated was on my wall...
I guess I had to miss what was gone... but yet and still I fall...
