When I Get To (Featuring Jeff Severson)

istock_000009400040small

when i get to (featuring jeff severson) is a fun romp. the song blends several genres that include rock, r&b, rap, and a touch of country. i love the harmonies on this song, and the stacked vocals at the end are standout. jeff severson mesmerizes with his guitar solo and ad libs – both of which were recorded on the fly in the studio. btw – my fiancee and i have rings, we never seem to convince ourselves to set a wedding date but at least we have this song. a la connect with me and one other tune on the eLOVE record, this song is romantic for its vows: “no one sustains life like you” and “come home to papa / let me pop something on you / no one gon’ stoppa / ’til i tie the strings with you.”

when i get to

falling down
tripping on myself
thinking like bank
is the center of wealth
gotta check my health
cause my mind was clown
walking round town
like my shit wasn’t brown
rising up
sipping that good wine
drinking that love
that i left behind
cause i’m above the line
got my ass cleaned up
gotta say what’s up
look at daddy’s new shine

come home to papa
let me pop something on you
no one gon’ stoppa
’til i tie the strings with you

when i get to
see again
i’m gonna lock my eyes on you
forget about the sun
forget them other ones
it’s been so long since i was true
when i get to
touch your skin
i’m gonna leave behind the blue
forget about the sun
forget them other ones
no one sustains life like you

bring it on
no matter what the price is
betting them gods gonna burn my vices
if i turn the dices
into ever songs
singing along to the early morning
what’s that sound
brand new day here
wetting my body in the shower of sincere
the power to think clear
is so jazz up
gotta say what’s up
look at daddy’s new shine

come home to papa
let me pop something on you
no one gon’ stoppa
’til i tie the strings with you

when i get to
see again
i’m gonna lock my eyes on you
forget about the sun
forget them other ones
it’s been so long since i was true
when i get to
touch your skin
i’m gonna leave behind the blue
forget about the sun
forget them other ones
no one sustains life like you
