Debates (Acoustic) [Live in Nashville]

I have seen it snowing in the sunshine state
Lately it seems I've been losing my debates
I wanna talk but she says it isn't happening
Its getting cold and dark in Tallahassee
Are you ready for the truth?

But baby I don't hate you I thought you should know
And I'm trying to not argue but its so below the way
That I feel for you
Ignore what they say none of its true

I have seen legacies sunk below the sea
I have seen the hopeless crawling on their knees
You cut me off hang me out to dry
In time I'll abide and take pride in the fact that I tried
But you're not by my side so I don't live I survive

But baby I don't hate you I thought you should know
And I'm trying to not argue but its so below the way
That I feel for you
Ignore what they say none of its true

My lady was always the stage
Even when I was underage
I currently travel through a perilous stage
Pushing my passion I'm hoping things go my way
Working day and night to write these unwritten pages
Once you get a dose of confidence its contagious
Instead of pushing change away I just embrace it
Thought the fire was gone but still the embers glow
There's a better path for me so I don't feel so indigo
Always been a rock and roller now hip hop is in the mix
I'm throwing genres at the wall till I find out what sticks
Where do our goals go during the quarantine?
Mine have been in purgatory and it seems they're losing steam
Running low on content its eating at my conscience
God and the devil are raging inside the back and forth is constant
Both provide lessons that should never be forgotten
I can manage the damage no need for a bandage
You may want to disagree you don't share my vantage
When you compare me to others you can see I'm more prepared
A dream deferred back in motion what I have is rare
I started at the bottom and I'm still f-ing there
I searched for a elevator but now I'm taking the stairs
If you're standing in my way then you will not be spared
My day 1 fans they see the growth they know I take care
I'm back in the groove I stay on the move I got something to prove
And I'm loving my crew

But still I thought you should know

But baby I don't hate you I thought you should know
But baby I don't hate you I thought you should know

It seems I have this nasty fear of letting go
Now I'm letting life take me with its undertow
