Seems like so long ago
Feels like so long ago
See...
[Verse 1]
My insecurities of life used to hinder me much
Knew the sky was close but it seemed I never can touch
Like the senseless, America is bleeding inside
This hate-filled atmosphere, why does love wanna hide
When we need you? Cold air to breathe through
Nujabes making beats in the heavens for the people
‘cause death’s an illusion, spiritual is life
You never can soar if you ain’t aiming for tonight
So I’m flying towards the light though the love of my life left
Used to count the stars, now I’m tryna find the right breath
But the music in my soul is what keeps me alive
Long as it's in your eyes, promise you that dreams never die
Resurrect the vibe with love so hate can divide the evil inside
Hard tryna bury the pride
Broken dreams, shattered consciousness, reflection in vain
People shooting up, hoping it protects from the pain
But it don’t, though I never tried and I don’t intend on it
Smile seems fake when it’s mixed with a grin, don’t it?
The moon glares on the love that we shared
But our time was cut short though I wasn’t prepared
Dear Autumn, you was a angel disguised as a demon
We was aiming for the sun, didn’t notice it was beaming the whole time
I emptied my old mind
Thinking ‘bout your presence, your essence was a goldmine
[Chorus]
It's like the devil in me saw the god in you
Although looking at the bright side is hard to do
In this dark-filled illusion, take it day by day
One love they'll never take it away, ya know?
Sundaes and rainy days, storms are short term
Spirit lives on, never know when it’s your turn
So make sure you cherish everyday on this earth
Memories are a beautiful birth
[Verse 2]
Love-ash burned, from my flames they died
But when they spiritual, the visuals remain inside
That’s where it stays and replays like the sands of time
Funny how I gain wisdom from fans of mine
Keep me uplifted when the world is shifted
Life’s but a dream, all these scenes was scripted
By you the producer, the world is the audience
Gotta give credit where it’s due
My ambiance abstract, I’m living off flashbacks
Dropping science like a fallen chemist tryna make up for the blemish
God is the starter, guarantee you hear a finish
Bringing positive vibes, negative matter diminish
Youth’s been replenished by the spiritual waters
Such a vigorous feeling at riverside skipping quarters
Still missing a part of me but never lost the heart of me
If I see you probably I'll give you my apologies
And cross the deepest oceans to express my emotions
Made a promise to the world, vow to keep my devotion
I got a notion everything will be fine
What’s meant to be’ll pan out in time, ya know?
[Chorus]
Because the god in me see the god in you
Although looking at the bright side is hard to do
In this dark-filled illusion, take it day by day
One love they'll never take it away, ya know?
Sundaes and rainy days, storms are short term
Spirit lives on, never know when it’s your turn
So make sure you cherish everyday on this earth
Memories are a beautiful birth, ya know?
Sundaes and rainy days, storms are short term
Spirit lives on, never know when it’s your turn
So make sure you cherish everyday on this earth
Memories are a beautiful birth, ya know?
