[Hook:] This is where the talking ends and life begins |
|
Let's start again, it's hard out here |
|
Why does it have it to be so complicated? |
|
This is where all the conversation stops and life begins |
|
Why does it have to be so complicated? [Verse 1:] |
|
Welcome to my world where imagination kept running |
|
Sprinting and sprinting, still trying to catch up |
|
Walk into the bedroom of that only child |
|
Singing and humming, what would be his future? |
|
A prep school graduate with a |
|
C average |
|
But I never seemed average |
|
I would talk all night bout being |
|
Outasight |
|
But I never kareem'd |
|
Magic till |
|
I put the words to bed |
|
And woke up the action and canned the laughter |
|
I ain't trying to make a stand, |
|
I'm trying to fill up the rafters [Hook] [Verse 2:] |
|
Explanations repeat in my mind |
|
Voices skipping back and forth like stones 'cross the pond |
|
Taking trips down memory lane don't bring pain |
|
They be making me feel a certain way about those wasted days |
|
And when I hear about acquaintances through old friends |
|
I still hear they hating to no end |
|
I shouldn't even waste my breath on 'em ' |
|
Cause if I confronted 'em, they'd get all choked up |
|
And I wouldn't waste my breath on 'em |
|
And I wish death on none except my old self |
|
The lost kid who thought he was owed wealth ' |
|
Cause he was so |
|
I'll, oh well [Hook] |
