"Taking A Chance"
A MR. BYRD and Remy82 Collaboration


  Remy82:

Can I get a moment of your time to open your eyes
Let you see what lies within my heart
Let you know what's constantly in my mind

Have you ever felt there was something missing from your world?
But yet it was just inches away from your grasp?
Minutes away from your destination
Seconds away from finishing your task

Beneath my skin underneath my chest
This is what I feel
Wondering, pondering, contemplating if out of this game
that the world plays
Will I receive a hand of hearts or will I be thrown another misdeal

Will I be able to complete the last note to the song that you have composed
Or maybe even the one to discover the texture of your soul

Uncertain that I have spoken too many phrases
scared that I've mentioned to many of my thoughts
will this send me through more mazes
So far I've paid with my words
But your heart have I bought?

May I continue with my definition of my soul
Or could that be a waste of my time
Wasted like the time it took to tell you my words of endearment
I'm too late for there is another that you chose

O woe is me because my mind is uncertain that you may not feel the same as me
You may even feel right beneath your your belly that this is a bit funny

Yes I've played russian roullette with my pen
And even took the chance to walk the plank
Getting closer to the edge and even closer to the bullet
Hoping that once again I have shot another blank

  MR. BYRD:

Remy since you...opened my eyes
To tell me what lies within your heart
Let me get--your undivided attention
Because sometimes I feel like I'm sensing
You're missing something valuable close to your heart
Trust me, I can tell you was feeling some type of misapprehension
When it comes life's woes..you're engineering some tension
Envision yourself not shielded in your safe haven
Conjested with situations life throws your way
But adversity brings you strength at arms length
Whether its...writing how you feel in blood or with ink
You didn't waste your time to tell me your humble affections
Sometimes our brainwaves can have glitches of disconnections
But whose perfect?
Maybe timing by expressing how you feel had it's purpose
When the time was right
So is this why we fear what we don't understand
For fate and life will never be doctrinated
By taking chances....I hope you understand it

  Remy82:

Now that these emotions have come to afore
Tell what it is that you need more?

Is there something else I can do to get you to really see
That all I need is a yes to just give you more of me

Give you more of my time
And more of my mind
Now that I've gotten over that hump
Is it safe to say that I can make you mine?

Cause see I'm ready to make this real
Make this feel
And I'm ready to make you heal

Heal you of all your past heartache
I'm trying to show you that all this
ain't no where near fake

I'm begging for an answer cause I can't wait anymore
Tell me your resolve.....an answer is all I'm waiting for.

  MR. BYRD:

You're telling me that you're ready to take that next step
But tell me...what secrets are kept behind your mind
I want to be with you, but like you said before
I don't want to feel like I'm wasting my time
Because I been down this road over and over
And honestly I don't know how many times I said "fuck it, it's over"
You known me to have a cold shoulder
So tell me the truth because I'm tired of having to look over my shoulder
Of the same memories...I mean deja vu's
Not to sound insecure, but my heart can't be lured again
So I wait til the smoke clears to extinguish the old flames
I'm begging for an answer cause I can't wait anymore
Because I want you, I'm not trying to close this door

  Remy82:

I went out on a limb and expressed my thoughts and emotions
So yes I'm ready to move on to make this real
I don't normally just start talking and just tell anybosy how I feel

We've talked and shared emotions that I've shared with a few
And out of that few, my mind has only been blew by you

Seeing you face to face....mmmmm
I swear I felt it was only a figmant of my imagination
But after just a touch from you on my hand it
slowly grew into infatuation

Can't you see the shame in my face?
I was afraid to share such thoughts with you
But I felt if I reveal these feelings that are oh so real
then I you will see that my feelings for you are true
