can't hold on to you

(альбом: Beauty In The Darkness - 2023)

Yeah
Two eyes on my goal one thought on my mind
Before I took a look I really I thought I was fine
Turned out I could never find a way to design
A picture perfect state that would stay in my mind
I had to, carve out some low feeling mindsets
Take two and trade out for my sense
First step was forgiving what I did
And the shame that I tried to survive in
Half of growing up is only recognizing
Pieces of yourself you gotta step aside with
Let 'em die and even if you're petrified
Embracing change is the only way to feel alive and
This can be a shock once you see the truth
The pain I see in me is what I see in you
Happiness is now you won't find it in a year or two
I guess the beauty of it all is that it's up to you

I can't hold on to you
I can't hold on to you
I can't hold on to you
I can't hold on to you

Yeah
Be careful who you choose to take advice from
If you listen then, you could end up like them
Pay attention to it now because it might come
Don't let 'em ever dim your light, be an icon
Regret ain't an option for me
I won't take caution when talking on beats
Nah
Don't try to silence my speech
I'ma send truth out as long as I'm free
What's gon happen to me when I finally reach all the goals that I set out to see in my dreams
Be the man that my father was hoping I'd be
Money's important, but not what I need
What I need is to feel I'm in peace when I sleep
I don't feel trust when our presidents speak
So my family and spirit is all that I seek
I can't hold on to that version of me nah

I can't hold on to you
I can't hold on to you
I can't hold on to you
I can't hold on to you
