作曲 : Kwame Nkrumah
You swear that this is more than just a beat that you sang over
You sing to the storm clouds that hang over
You sing to the pain, fear no hangover
You sing to the rain 'til the rain's over
Swear that life is more than just a beat that you sang over
You sing 'cause the shadows never fight fair (Fight fair)
You sing 'cause your heart thought we might care (Might care)
You sing 'cause your mind has a way of turning scars into nightmares (You were gone)
You were gone, thought you knew the way to go
Saw it in your eyes, you were hella motivated
Learnt to fall in love with things that we thought you hated
Found out that you wasn't loved, you was tolerated
And like our tolerance, the shit was never coming down
And like your tolerance, her patience finally hit the ground
Least you learned that honesty is not a bad thing
But that don't mean we wanna hear all of your bad dreams

Well thank God you cared enough to help me
Was that another way of saying I'm wrong?
Well thank God you cared enough to help me
Is that another way of saying I'm wrong?

I call, okay?
Like...you know me, I...I...not gonna fight over something that you don't remember and I can't explain
So, we're cool
Yeah, we're cool

So you held on to your fear like your life depended on it
Got real good at holdin' your breath
Yeah, you held on to your fear like your life depended on it
Got real good at holdin' your breath
Yeah, you held on to their fears like their lives depended on it
Got real good at holdin' your breath
Yeah, you held on to their fears like your life depended on it
You and your dreams are choking to death

So you opened up your fist, fell asleep in Albany
Somewhere near the Hudson
The bus can wait, the bus will wait
Woke up a half-hour later and everything was the same
You just learned how to see it
