Recollections

You got your hold on me from times we was young
I turned away when you asked bout tying the knot
No one can see it but I been hiding some flaws
You saw through the monsters occupying my heart

Looked deep inside of myself didn't like what I saw
Made a nice little home for my demons while you was gone
More than metaphors, every reminder and scar
Like familiar fragments from a life that I lost

Recollections
From another time
That just hit me in waves
(The life I lost)
Like out of body
From another life
In a different place
(That was the life I lost)

We such a long ways, away from the days
That I called you mine, and you did the same
Been long long time, since I felt alright
Or you called and said hey
Missing your voice
Missing your taste
Innocence fades yea
Knew you was the one didn't know
You was the one that was getting away
Guess its just best that I give it some space

Events getting skewed
Only remember a few
The times your pops brought his baseball bat to the room
And I quick escaped out the window, lept from the roof
Or when the drugs and the sex took our heads to da moon
Just thought I was gon' spend like da rest of forever with you
Forever da fool, heat of the moment, yo I was sweating da truth

Times I caught you creepin' and the homies mama d, called police
Times yu thought I'd cheated, bitch was copping weed, irony
Was da cops came anyway, got a G, copping pleas

Times you was acting reckless
So I had to answer questions
Like nah officer, I dont have a weapon
Not tryna catch domestics, go 'head talk to her
Shit just got mad aggressive
Throwing chairs and yelling
Neighbors can hear the tension
Thru da walls, like we went thru it all
Trade this cruel withdrawal
Just to go back and mend it
Half dependent, and Half correcting
The bad depression, that's been manifesting like...

Sometimes it feels like we was
Just another figment of my adolescence

Recollections
From another time
That just hit me in waves
(Jusr hit me in waves)
Like out of body
From another life
In a different place
(It was a different place)

We such a long ways, away from the days
That I called you mine, and you did the same
(Recollections)
Been long long time, since I felt alright
Or you called and said hey
Missing your voice
Missing your taste
(Out of body)
Innocence fades yea
Knew you was the one didn't know
You was the one that was getting away
Guess its just best that I give it some space

Hit me in waves
Hit me in waves
Hit me in waves
Hit me in waves
