Pass On By (Interlude)

(album: Destination Unknown - 2019)

(Like-like-like-like-like to believe that you are the one)

I'm riding in that old school Chevy, it's a drop-top
Used to have you on my mind, been a minute
But I swear back then, it was non-stop
Couldn't even take a joke

Now I'm beginning to feel like a man
I understand now
I was a little too young for you then
But look at me now...

It was a time that I needed ya
I couldn't sleep, I had to be witchya
The memories I still keep around
But I, I just decided

I'm free from it
Got my heart set in stone
I got my trees rolled back
Doing fine on my own
Finna roll my windows down
And take my time
Feeling that breeze
Pass on by
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh baby

Do you see me?

You have to identify these voids in your life and fill them
And I mean all of them, the voids in your identity
You have to reestablish who you are and what your life is about
The voids in your social life, the missing activities
Even the empty spaces of the wall where pictures used to hang
But none of them do any good unless you prevent the mistakes that can set you back
The unnecessary searches for explanations
Idealizing your ex instead of focusing on how they were wrong for you
Indulging thoughts and behaviors that still give them a starring role
In this next chapter of your life when they shouldn't be an extra
