Keep of Mine

This is my delayed reply
This is my delayed reply
The good and the bad times that came and fly
Just memories you keep of mine

This is my delayed reply
The good and the bad times that came and fly
Just memories you keep of mine

And I wish I could take it back, rewind and backtrack

Leave three dots, no wonders of an inside voice
To convince my point, indecisive by choice
I would grasp harder, but your bus is already chartered
With one way and no stops, the day comes and I won't watch

Spectate and admire from a distance, for instance
To recollect and feel nostalgic, to call in sick
Cause I gotta work and a lot to sort, not to be selfish
You can point me to where hell is and throw it on my relics

Sentimental value, you couldn't fucking sell it
Like a sink oil, but the customer remains loyal
So spit game and always spoil, to get us through this turmoil
Even when we're stressed out when the blood boils

Sprung like some coils, to keep me uppty and about
Writing poetry to spit out loud
But you're the last person I'll ever see in the crowd

This is my delayed reply
The good and the bad times that came and fly
Just memories you keep of mine
This is my delayed reply
The good and the bad times that came and fly

Just memories you keep of mine

I stay calm and collected, see my savings in my checkin
Stashing these bags was my biggest investment
Now the trolls hit me up, so addicted like they fiends

These the same motherfuckers got a point when they read
They'll never let me be, impossible to piece
So I tell them that I'm king once they see the royalties
Call me Kauzum, fuck the guns, they too messy

See the pen is my sword and I'm licensed to carry it
I would have never thought when jotting down the plot
Like blueprints with the plans to be elusive after this music
Taking a toll of percentage of the funds

And losing the presence of his son as he takes a plunge into the depths
I obsess to often neglect these dreams to fruition
Hit the road and start the ignition, you'll regret that decision
Well in hindsight, that's 20-20 vision, but nobody's business

And at the end of the day, it won't lead me astray
You're a reason to stay on my own terms, so who make concerns
Ironically cool when it burns, what I earned success just along the way
Pushing forward, never stagnant, what I built is it fragments

Like milestones, utter and harsh, yet mild tones
When I called, just dial tones and nights alone
With these letters and the microphone

This is my, delayed reply
This is my, delayed reply
The good and the bad times I can't reply
Just memories you keep of mine
This is my, delayed reply

This is my, delayed reply
The good and the bad times I can't reply
Just memories you keep of mine
Now sing along

This is my, delayed reply
This is my, delayed reply
The good and the bad times I can't reply
Just memories you keep of mine

I can't hear you
This is my, delayed reply
This is my, delayed reply
The good and the bad times that came and fly

Just memories you keep of mine
