Reminiscing Past Life

paint a picture, picture perfect, yea I pitched to well
just like jack did for rose, only time will tell
 
your assets got me thing about my past life
nearly broke my neck when you had to pass by  
you can have my heart share like the last slice,
gave you my heart, we can share it like the last slice
anything you want , ain’t gotta ask twice
I can be your dude, but seems you want a bad guy
cross my tee, dot my eyes, like a poltergeist
it coulda been us, but you were addicted to your past life
obsoleted mine, wonder what, what that’s like
so many thoughts clouding up my hindsight
had to understand myself, that’s my reason, that’s why

I try to live my life to the fullest I can fake it
if my cup is half empty then I’d take it
if it’s half full, not sure if I can make it.
all this stress that builds up, I can’t shake it

I’m taken by my emotions that got me breaking
tired of being neglected all the time, my heart aching
too stressed don’t know what to do, I keep shaking
take a deep breath, chill out, keep on breathing
that’s why I am the way I am, it’s hard to keep my feelings
in check with myself, these stipulations come my reasons
pressure to be the best, ambitions come my demons
these shackles hold me back, I wanna be a free man
the pains from emotions is deeper than just lesions

strengthen myself, but my kindness is my weakness
hard to be on offense, when I’m stuck here on defense
say sorry all the time, cause there’s a lot of things I’m meaning
little did you know deep down, my soul is screaming
I ain’t ready to swim by myself, don’t throw me in the deep end
got me hypnotized, and loving you is the sequence
I miss the way you say my name with your credence
love lockdown, but we’ve broken this allegiance  
sorry yet again, if I was just an inconvenience.
 
I thought we were about unity, pledge allegiance  
 
sit in a limousine reminiscing about my past life
