Into the Forge

from The Gold by Brother Roscoe

/

lyrics

I saw you and I knew that I had to make you my own
A blast from a shotgun, a call from my radiophone
Your black hair, the cold stare, lipstick and soft monotone
I saw you and I knew that I had to make you my own

We locked eyes, you thought twice, but I would not be turned away
I would not and could not lay down and die on that day
In this light it looks like an eagle that's stalking its prey
We locked eyes, you thought twice, but I would not be turned away

Be turned away, I won't be turned away
And I spent more than I could afford
Be turned away, I won't be turned away
It's the gold and the gravel thrown into the forge

You saw me it might be the first time I ever was seen
The low lights, the hot nights, like something from a magazine
We moved fast for our class but honey you was only sixteen
You saw me it might be the first time I ever was seen

Ever was seen, that I ever was seen
And I spent more than I could afford
Ever was seen, that I ever was seen
It's the gold and the gravel thrown into the forge
