Moving Forward (feat. Ono & Curt Davis)

When she said she'd lost it
Should've seen her face
Line in the sand she crossed it
This is not a race
Of course he wasn't there
He should've absolutely cared
She was entirely alone
He can't present his case

I wasn't there for her at the time
But as it's said it's just time
I met her after that first rhyme
After that emotional crime
I'm there for her now
I'm as strong as I allow
For her I'll be fine

What's said is done
What's done is said
Red for what's done
Mad for what's dead
Hold her in my bed
I'll be around
It won't get to my head
Just hear the sound

Moving forward is a must
Loving beyond the lust
Learning again to trust
I'll be patiently waiting till I'm dust

Do it for her and for yourself
Her and you are for the shelf
Might not have a lot of wealth
Emotional is much in itself

Never be ashamed again
Never feel blamed again
Never fall for someone claiming to be your friend

Or even more, your partner
Build up your armour
Don't focus on someone with the maturity of a kindergartener

I know it's cold out in the real world
I know you want to be warm and curled
But into a ball won't protect you from the fear that's been hurled

The streets can finally be safe
I'm right here by your side
We'll have our very own place
You'll never have to lie outside

You can learn to let your guard down
Just like I did for you
We can have a talk and sit-down
You're not the same I know it's true

You carry a lot of heavy baggage
Just don't lift solitarily
Don't focus on the damage
Tell yourself 'I'm gonna repair me'

I can't do it for you
But I wish that I could
Strength is your strong suit
Eventually you'll feel good

I truly believe you'll be okay
Even if it's not today
There's always light to the grey
Self-help is a gateway

Don't hesitate to seek help
From a professional or myself
Be open with your family
Share with your friends your agony

You're afraid to hurt them
But this is self destruction
A safe and positive environment
Is needed for your own construction

You've lost so much
There's so much to gain
What's sunshine
Without a little rain

You've dealt with the storm
You'll no longer conform
You're the master of your happiness
Now it's your time to perform

Let your feelings swarm
Deal with their form
Your psychological extremes
Are their own art form

It hurts so much to feel powerless
For me nonetheless
To know all this happened
While I was at rest

There's no way I could've intervened
Didn't know you existed yet
I was only just a teen
I couldn't have fought off the threat

It's not my responsibility
It's beyond my ability
Yet it makes me so mad
That you were treated with such cruelty

It hurts me know the pain
That was done to my dame
But I need to control my brain
Before I get drained

What's said
Is done
What's done
Is said
Red for
What's done
Mad for
What's dead

What's said is done
What's done is said
Red for what's done
Mad for what's dead
Hold her in my bed
I'll be around
It won't get to my head
Just hear the sound

Moving forward is a must
Loving beyond the lust
Learning again to trust
I'll be patiently waiting till I'm dust

You've made so many strides
Since that phase of your life
You're in a better place now
You've put up a good fight

Not every day is perfect
Internal conflicts intersect
But it's an upwards spiral
Your equipment is all set

It'll never happen once more
Everything is plain to see
You'll never be down on the floor
Without help from me

Even if you were alone
Stripped down the bone
You'd make it out I'm positive
You've found your will to live
