paroles de chanson Valedictorian - Lewis M.

Imma be honest
I put this pen to paper
Not knowing what would be jotted
A bunch of something-somethings
The sum of which is a promise
I don't know how to keep
So I break it
Hoping you spot it
The only time we talk
Is when conversation is hardest
At least ya boy's consistent
Can always trust me
To be a fuck-up
Another nigga
That only expresses himself
By tearing down the walls
Of the only home he knows
Then wonders why he is cold.
I'm sorry
I know I spiral
Too easy, and you're itching
To turn the knob of that dial
To something else that
Doesn't require so much
I tried though
To wear a "happy" face
But you're not one for disguises
I smile, cuz depressed me
Is the only one you acknowledge
There's no use in denying
We both played a role
And I'm opening up my eyes
I hope you open your's too
I always looked
But, I never really "saw" you
And, that shit is raw truth
I'm sorry
Every breath I ever breathe
Is a confession
The air I exhale is different
Cuz what it sees inside of me
Leaves it with tons of questions
It's prolly best not to answer
So we been kinda distant
My girlfriend says it's asthma ...maybe
I spend too much of
My time saying sorry
And not enough on
Self-forgiveness cuz that shit is hard
See, I always learn more about
Winning from taking losses
If every "L" is a lesson
Call me Valedictorian

On the outskirts of the unknown
My memory is embers from
A burnt down home
And I'm just making
Snow angels in the ashes
The "after" of an inferno
It's where I feel alive
The heat's how I survive
On the outskirts of the unknown
My memory is embers from
A burnt down home
And I'm just making
Snow angels in the ashes
The "after" of an inferno
It's where I feel alive
The heat's how I survive

And I know, it's kinda odd
That when shit's going good
My brain think's it's a mirage
Always looking for some cracks
And when none is to be found
It'll make em so it's real
Til I'm left with nothing else
But myself
Like, I told ya so
And, when that happens
I forget to recognize my breath
Until its exhale leaves me lips
I squeeze my fists
Take it out on the page
Maybe you could call it rage
Confident no one will lay
A single eye on it
The kind of honest I could be
The kind the requires no risk
Cuz honestly I spill my
Dirty laundry on wax
Always honest on a beat
But, never to my fuckin mirror
It's weird that strangers
End up learning more about me
Than the ones closest to
I'm a walking talking shitting
Contradiction. Bold of you
To assume because I know this
I'm capable of fixing it
This life is a Rubix Cube
With razor blades affixed to it

On the outskirts of the unknown
My memory is embers from
A burnt down home
And I'm just making
Snow angels in the ashes
The "after" of an inferno
It's where I feel alive
The heat's how I survive
On the outskirts of the unknown
My memory is embers from
A burnt down home
And I'm just making
Snow angels in the ashes
The "after" of an inferno
It's where I feel alive
The heat's how I survive
On the outskirts of the unknown
My memory is embers from
A burnt down home
And I'm just making
Snow angels in the ashes
The "after" of an inferno
It's where I feel alive
The heat's how I survive
On the outskirts of the unknown
My memory is embers from
A burnt down home
And I'm just making
Snow angels in the ashes
The "after" of an inferno
It's where I feel alive
The heat's how I survive
