Slow Burn

Yea

I swear that it is my turn
I pray it last forever need a slow burn
I look at life from a birds eye and then i ask myself what have you learnt
Burnt bridges that i walk through
And i still move with this deep curse
You pay for these decisions better move with precision no time just to rehearse
You sold yo soul for that gold that's a fools pot
You feel at home on the road but yo souls not
If you make it to the top will yo soul drop
Or fly forever
I got habits said in stone without Rosetta
You pat yo back when you alone to storm the weather
They said to go get you some bones and you'll feel better
But I'm still hurt
And how do you expect me just to sacrifice my vices when we both know they still work
And i let you beside me and you came and took my peace just to let you know it still hurts
Got a damaged heart yet I came so far safe to say that it still works
Safe to say that I'm still working

Healing up these scars like a surgeon
I move with urgency
I was a star from the start
I knew the verdict
Ray Charles in the dark
In my coat I'm burning
I move with a purpose
Repenting in these verses
Breaking news we got new views
If I chose sides I would choose you
If i never lied I would lose you
I know that I don't smile like I used to

Coming for eveything that we asked for
I'm bleeding confidence they say that that's an asshole
If I had a time machine
Would I go back and just rewrite all my past notes
Maybe I would fast forward
Tell me would I see the things my past life asked for
I just hope that I would laugh more
Why question life when you can live it
I know that it once felt right but now it's different
Tryna find the peace without the balance
Tryna count the things that really matter
Wash away my flaws because I'm tattered
Purple Heart everydays a battle

Yea

I feel you can see emotions through a man's eye
So I cover mine sometimes no I can't lie
And i been on edge yes walking through this land mine
And I know I'll break my people off at least like 10 times
But is it really worth it if I never seem to make time
Do I ask these questions in hop that someone says sum
Do I just do more and say less
Do I think that most things make sense
I wonder

So you gon take a shot with the women who only care bout them riches just to feel better
I know that when it's yo turn that you gon need ma slow burn just so you can feel better
