Let Go

I had to let it go
This shit will eat your soul
I had to let it go
I had to let it go
This shit will eat your soul
I had to let it go

Can't see em' coming down my eyes
So I gotta make the song cry
Can't see em coming down my eyes
So I gotta make the song cry

Coming from a broken family, that shit hurt me to the core
I never really spoke about it, or the things that I saw
My mother left, no return, shit broke my heart
Feel like it's all my fault
I was right there
Felt the tension, went outside, hopped on my bike, I needed some air
I wish I stayed inside
Knowing it was another fight
I probably could have helped
Who knows? But I'd feel better if I tried
I put that on my life
Probably why I resented you
I hate myself for it, I ain't defend you
I hate myself for it, I ain't defend you
So unhappy for so long, but for us you would pretend too
That's why I gotta give you the world
Just looking back, that shit makes me wanna hurl
My parents split, no time to react
Just had to adjust, and I feel like I lost my Dad
When my mom was finally done, that's when I started living fast
And nobody could tell me nun
I used that as my crutch
A youngin out searching for love
Ain't really know the rules to the game, played me like a violin
In and out the streets, tryna dodge the violence
And I ain't even give a fuck, as long as he was sliding in
And it was never really love, but we used to pretend
See it was never really love, but we used to pretend
And because of what it was, shit came to an end
I was a different person back then
I done grew up so fast
A lot I learned from mistakes, should of been taught by my Dad
That's why my Grandfather, get so much recognition
Even if I was tripping
You'd calm me down, and just listen
Damn, still can't believe you not living

I had to let it go
This shit will eat your soul
I had to let it go
I had to let it go
This shit will eat your soul
I had to let it go

And I forgive you for your missing days
Just hope we get it right, before we pass away
Said I forgive you for your missing days
Just hope we get it right, before we pass away
