Past is Dead

The past is dead
And there's no going back
All your pain and regrets
They're now left in the past
And I know my mistakes
Ones I wish I could change
What's the point in all that
If there's no going back, yeah there's no going back Nah

No going back to what's left
Cause what we done left is dead
Yeah you heard what I said
Better pay your respects
Cause there is an end
To the stories of those unfortunate
Telling my story I'm a journalist
Finding myself where are my coordinates
To the most high I'm his subordinate
My life is temporary and it's fleeting, never permanent

Living to the fullest like my granddad before me
And peace be upon him cause he don't gotta worry
Bout the choices I make and the path I will choose
Yeah I've made my mistakes, but tell me what's new
I'm living to the fullest like Mimi before me
And peace be upon her cause she don't gotta worry
Bout the projects I make and the women I choose
I was taught from the best I don't gotta say who

The past is dead
And there's no going back (And there's no going back)
All your pain and regrets (All your pain and regrets)
They're now left in the past (They're now left in the past)
And I know my mistakes
Ones I wish I could change
But the past dead
I said the past is dead

Dead as hell
Dead as hell
Past dead as hell
Dead as hell
Past dead as hell
Demons come
It's them I quell
I excel
Where they all fail
What's that smell
It smells like hell
I can tell
That they're in jail
I can tell
They're in a cell
Trapped in a loop
Like a carousel

Stuck to your past
How long will it last
And your life is a failure
Cause the past is your jailer
I've been trying to tell ya
That the past is behind ya
It's your mind that betrays you
But right now nevermind that
Try to look past it
Yeah your story is tragic
Yeah even I have that
But name someone who hasn't
We're not so different
Just in different positions
If we had the same shoes
We'd make the same decision

And there's no going back (And there's no going back)
All your pain and regrets (All your pain and regrets)
They're now left in the past (They're now left in the past)
And I know my mistakes
Ones I wish I could change
But the past dead
I said the past is dead
(T.M.S)
