Lyrics

[00:03.30] (Verse 1)
[00:18.63] Let's take it three years back, or something near that.
[00:21.76] Steel city, mango blunts just to hear raps.
[00:24.90] And pure relaxing, radio shows
[00:26.70] Before it all packed in.,talking, laughing
[00:28.53] Brewing earl grey,put a smile on my face on the worst day.
[00:32.40] In a blurred haze, sun blazed through the window.
[00:34.89] Time seemed to stop and vinyl would spin slow.
[00:37.34] As Dennis Brown would sing notes to our hearts content.
[00:39.84] Why ain't your heart content?
[00:41.70] Ever since I met you, your presence is a refuge.
[00:43.87] It hurts me to think that you need to be rescued.
[00:46.32] Cause life is a journey that you just gotta get through.
[00:49.30] When I get you,your whole aura is beautiful.
[00:51.19] It's crazy with you, like there's nothing to prove to you,
[00:54.70] You're so true too, mind switches with the seconds.
[00:56.57] You're so grateful when others wouldn't mention.
[00:59.16] Stop, Stop,
[01:00.17] Put it in perspective.
[01:01.76] life's negative when you're forgetting all the best bits.
[01:03.98] Think, Think
[01:05.14] About your perspective.
[01:06.31] this cycle ain't endless, take your hurt and neglect it.
[01:08.87] Stop, Stop,
[01:09.79] Put it in perspective.
[01:11.43] life's negative when you're forgetting all the best bits.
[01:13.90] Think, Think
[01:14.49] About your perspective.
[01:16.33] this cycle ain't endless, take your hurt and neglect it.
[01:18.86] (Verse 2) Your friendship, means the world to me.
[01:21.65] I can't put into words what you're worth to me.
[01:23.71] It's hurting me seeing you like this, like
[01:25.71] All of sudden, you're just so lifeless.
[01:28.27] Then your face lights up and you're back again.
[01:30.75] Like your mask's away and you've passed the pain.
[01:33.35] You don't have to expalin how you feel to me.
[01:35.56] I see it in your eyes, it's so real to me.
[01:37.61] I didn't mean to be distant.
[01:39.61] I just couldn't see you hurt from this distance.
[01:42.21] With you, I listen and I hear wisdom.
[01:44.34] So don't be foolish cause life's for living.
[01:46.39] And it's easy to say but blazing weed
[01:48.31] everyday has got you fading away.
[01:50.21] And now I can't see your rays,please shine like you used to.
[01:54.39] You still do but you need a new rhythm to move to.
[01:59.38] (Hook) Stop, Stop,
[02:00.24] Put it in perspective.
[02:01.57] life's negative when you're forgetting all the best bits.
[02:03.98] Think, Think
[02:04.85] About your perspective.
[02:06.24] this cycle ain't endless, take your hurt and neglect it.
[02:09.12] Stop, Stop,
[02:10.12] Put it in perspective.
[02:11.60] life's negative when you're forgetting all the best bits.
[02:14.30] Think, Think
[02:15.18] About your perspective.
[02:16.58] this cycle ain't endless, take your hurt and neglect it.
[02:19.12] (Verse 3) You’re so talented. Don’t let that fade.
[02:21.22] No matter what you’re going through, don’t let that change.
[02:23.60] Cause days… months… years are a progression.
[02:26.34] A hundred versions and a million lessons.
[02:28.34] But when heaven seems out of your grasp.
[02:31.23] Focus on the future and let go of the past.
[02:33.68] Cause back when we first spoke you were care-free.
[02:36.20] Or was that all an act in order not to scare me?
[02:38.75] I’d barely spent much time in your company.
[02:41.68] Then suddenly I thought you were just up and cutting me.
[02:43.97] You should’ve trusted me from back then.
[02:45.95] I’d have been there when you seemed scared.
[02:47.99] You and me’s rare or it was last year.
[02:50.03] And I know men don’t cry – they hold back tears.
[02:52.12] But so you know you’re a blessing in the past its clear.
[02:54.82] Nobody else can match you or in fact come near.
