Picture Frame
~ Lyrics ~
I’m funny
Dads never gonna be proud is he
I guess I gotta come to terms with that
And Mommas never really gonna miss me
But that’s what I get for always being so bad
It’s got my head spinning
Now I gotta make my own path
But I’m not happy
And there’s nothing harder than admitting that
I wish that we could go back
But we can’t move passed the past
And the presents a gift but we never opened it
But we’re trapped in picture frames of what could have been
Little pretty memories laced with sin
Whatever hole you feel, I can’t fill it
Whatever monster you fight, I can’t kill it
But I’ve done what you wanted for so long
That I don’t even know what road I’m supposed to be on
And I know you never liked my songs
It’s all I ever wanted and you think it’s wrong
Looking back on yesterday
Broken dreams and a picture frame
I’m loosing faith I’ll never find out who I am
But I can’t see
Through tears of gold
Cause they’re the only ones that I have left to hold
If it keeps me cold
I’ll never know
A penny for my thoughts won’t cover the cost
Or regain what we lost once you threw us all off
I’m not saying it’s all your fault there’s too much unresolved
Seems it’s all boiled down into wounds for salt
It’s like everyone loves to hate on each other
But when was it cool to strike down your own brother
I get that divorce is known to scar a lover but that’s my Mother and I don’t wanna talk bad about her
I ain’t seen my aunts and uncles in a long time
And if we do it’s just to say hi I don’t know their life
We let Brey pass by, aren’t you scared we won’t be there if another cousin dies did you even think twice
Y’all might be fine but I can’t live with that
There’s only so much you can put in a rap
And you can’t reconnect with a Facebook tap
And there’s only so many head stones I can stand
Looking back on yesterday
Broken dreams and a picture frame
I’m loosing faith I’ll never find out who I am
But I can’t see
Through tears of gold
Cause they’re the only ones that I have left to hold
If it keeps me cold
I’ll never know
You gave away your own kids
And now I’m supposed to just forgive and forget
And to be honest with you my patience is runnin’ thin
I think we at least deserve some kind of reason
And don’t tell me you were scared that doesn’t make any sense
Cause we would’ve fought for you until the bitter end
We waited for you by the window till ten
Just so you could call and cancel last minute
If it kills me slow
I’ll never know
Looking back on yesterday
Broken dreams and a picture frame
I’m loosing faith I’ll find out who I am
But I can’t see
Through tears of gold
Cause they’re the only ones I have to hold
The only ones I have to hold
