Locksmith, Branden Blair - Lessons lyrics
[Locksmith, Branden Blair - Lessons lyrics]
Such a beautiful setting, life's good
My music's finally spreading
Looking back on the time when
I wasn't getting the
Recognition deserved but I'm hanging
On by a threading
I'm letting go of the guilt and
The pain that I once carried
Could've been a victim myself
But escaped barely
I, rarely make excuses, look what he endured
My girl left the same week I
Had to leave on tour damn
And they say that it's perfect
Timing just think of
All the women you'll meet
In them cities rhyming
But, I'm lying if I said I
Was over it right away cause
Everything you do in dark comes out
In the light of day
I had to readjust my thoughts, put me
First i lost myself and my relationship
It could be worse
But instead he works with more
Passion than I started with
Rather say it now than resent
You because I harbored it
Guarded by my goals, blinded through
What I'm searching for
Lost a couple friends but it's something
More that I'm working towards
Certain rewards that you get when
You just forget to care
Chasing down someone that's chasing
Something that isn't there
And to myself that just isn't fair
We all deserve to be happy
I mean who isn't scared?
This for my niggas still with
Me that's bearing this
What good is having success when there's
No one to share it with?
So long, so long, how do I stay so long?
No matter what it takes hold on
No matter what it takes go on
And it feels like it's more
Than I can handle
So what am I suppose to do
When life loops like a sample?
And I throw away my crutch
And I try to clutch when it's cancelled
Nothing left there but despair
No one's substantial
And people only see what they want to see
When they want to, I try not to judge
Cause you never know what
They're going through
Going through what is possibly just a phase
Are these rappers better than me?
I would contemplate it for days
I stayed in my place unaware of the damage
When you loyal to a fault
Some people will take advantage
I, managed to get out of the
Deal I was once in
So what makes you think I would
Rush to do it again? If I ever look back
That's the moment I stumble
There's a very thin line
Between insecure and humble, huh
Between cocky and confident
But, I'm still here so I
Take both as a compliment
So long, so long, how do I stay so long?
No matter what it takes hold on
No matter what it takes go on
So long, so long, how do I stay so long?
No matter what it takes hold on
No matter what it takes go on
My music's finally spreading
Looking back on the time when
I wasn't getting the
Recognition deserved but I'm hanging
On by a threading
I'm letting go of the guilt and
The pain that I once carried
Could've been a victim myself
But escaped barely
