Need You Still
(专辑: Forgive Me For My Honesty - 2017)
[Keith Fontano:] Baby put the
bottle down You don't need another one No, you don't need another one Girl, you don't need another one Why you taking all those pills? Don't you know that they will kill you? Don't you know that we all need you? Don't you know I
need you still? [Ivan B:] I
barely knew you back then But man, the
things I
remember it's all in my mind Tears on my face as I'm writing these lines To imagine a
place, If I
asked are you fine Didn't care, never talked, wasn't there, never called Then you were gone, only thing I
recall Saw your girls face, no make-up No smile, no feelings, no heart She felt nothing at all Like, what could I
say? How could I
possibly say "It's okay"? How could I
not feel this anger inside me I
look at her now, and you made her this way When you drank all them pills, yeah I
killed her Since then man I
haven't seen the
real her Screaming in her pillow could you tell me did you hear her? Even when she smiles, could you see that it still hurts They might say that it's wrong to be bitter But the
more that she drank, the
more she got sicker No better, she killing her liver You thought she'd be better but it's getting worst Hollow like the
bottle she's holding She's trying to sleep, can't sleep to the
morning Every day is another performance His pictures, memories, it's what she's been holding She's blaming herself for the
reason you left You took every pills but she feels the
effect Family is in pieces, your friends are a
mess You left all your pain and you gave it to them What did you think that would happen Thought it'd be easy like she would move on Hang out with her friends like nothing is wrong They try to be strong but the
moment you left She was already gone [Keith Fontano:] Baby put the
bottle down I
could hear you drowning now I
could hear you crying now In your silence, I
could hear you loud Why you taking all these pills? Don't you know that they can kill you? Don't you know that you can heal? Don't you know we need you still? [Ivan B:] Forgive me for my honesty Its a
blessing and a
curse Its a
medicine that hurts Its the
only thing that works Who could understand the
things that you went trough? It hurts cause I
never even get to Look at you in the
eyes like "yeah brother I
get you" And even shake you hand and say "don't let the
stress get you" But you left scars that are here to stay So many stars used for you to stay So much pain that I
see even to this day They think of you when it starts to rain Didn't know you was affecting me What if someone close to me Like, what if I
was you and no one noticed me? Spending time alone, yeah I
wonder who would wanna go broke with me To the
girl still crying on her sheets I
know you don't feel like it but know that you gotta eat I
know you think you need to but you don't gotta drink Water's coming in but you don't gotta sink I
know it's hard to breathe, you just need to want to Anything you need, babygirl I
got you Tell me what it is, tell me what you feel Tell me you're alive, anything can heal Maybe I
don't understand, guess I
never will But if you're feeling broken now, I
promise you can heal Promise you can make it out, you don't gotta be scared If you're feeling numb, I
promise Ima' be there You don't gotta figure it out, I
need you to feel Sometimes the
ones who love us end up leaving us still You don't need another bottle, you don't need another pill You don't gotta smile but we all need you, still [Keith Fontano:] Baby put the
bottle down I
could hear you drowning now I
could hear you crying now In your silence, I
could hear you loud Why you taking all these pills? Don't you know that they can kill you? Don't you know that you can heal? Don't you know we need you still? [Ivan B:] Yeah, look at the
music we listen to Bottles and bottles, gimme another one Killing ourselves and we're killing each other The
phrase that I'm hearing is "having fun" Numbing my feelings so we can feel something How does that make any sense? They tell me relax, have a
great time They see kids who don't know they're depressed They bottled it up, now they're shooting it out Hitting students all over their chest And they wonder what was the
reason He was just fine, saw him last night and he had a
good time Wasn't depressed, he was out of his mind Who would've known he was out of it Guess it was only a
matter of time There's more to perceive than what you see in your eyes Look at the
time that we live in our lives No emotions, I
see them concealing it Instead of dealing with problems They hand you a
drink like "forget it, you don't gotta deal with it" That's the
world that we live in, I'm sick of it Want no part of the
world that I'm living in If you cared just a
little bit, felt just a
little bit Things would've been a
little different
