about

was inspired by a mac miller track w this one.. also a breakup at that time. was actually the last song recorded for project and first song recorded in new orleans, where I now reside. twas fitting

lyrics

speaking to myself
tho at times can't recognize the voice
i was read between the lines
before I learned to filter out the noise..
met w choices I make
in turn
light matches off of the path I burn
and I lost my way
looking for trust
i'll never have another chance to earn
and I'm so spent daily
anticipating maybes..
frontin like it cost too much
savor the hush
as if the flavors a rush
they all goin up burned w a dutch
ends and friends are never enough
just
breathe..
still gone off the fragrance
it's been a couple days
since we last spoke got a pressure on my heart
impatient
can't really cope
and it's that basic
i
ache because I'm sick
places that I've been flashback
yesterday couldn't face it
today it's congratulations
no time wasted
well
i done gave up counting sheep
sounds of silence keep me from sleep
and it's the same song
kept on repeat
so I throw it all in the backseat
hit the gas on a search
for words I can't speak
when I lost my peace
i found you..
now I'm on the other side
when before I couldn't see through
yeah..
and I don't look at the skies no more
nor the front door
i know the score
and know exactly I'm here for
so till next
raise a glass for the rest
cuz I ain't done yet
til the king is undressed
can't suppress the crown
i've been down
only up now
cuz when I heard the sound
this time I said
yes..
