Regrets

Beat starts at #1:00

 

 

Regrets, always push them aside,

The more that you feel them, the sooner you'll die.

It's about avoiding the mistakes to prevent the dangers,

Live to love and love to live with the strangers.

 

That, reside on this planet just as special as you

Just as afraid, nervous and insignificant too.

Just as honest, positive and just as true,

Just as deceitful, just as old and as new.

 

Regret not, the clock doesn't reverse,

Time ticks on inside and outside of the hearse.

Stick to the path paved and take advantage of living,

Be kind and seek the royalties of forgiving.

 

It's not a race to exist, it's a marathon of being alive,

Don't cut short another's life just to survive.

Climb, jump, reach and strive to be high,

Life's too short to live with a passion to die.

 

When #time #caps #you'll be left to #dig #in #the #dirt,

For the #memories #you #buried when your feeling were hurt.

But your past is your past, for all the future to see,

So control your emotions, overcome and be free.

 

Unstoppable, but not for lack of the obstacles present,

Been hit with bricks tryna' build a future since I was seven.

Father figure figured he'd far rather up and leave,

It's hard to grow when missing roots to your family tree.

 

#The #master #of #escape, like #Houdini when I was in school,

Never could #stomach the #punches that the bullies threw.

But I don't see it as a dent in the metal,

I see it as another piece to a puzzle called instrumental.

 

It's all true but to me it's just old news,

The future's bright, it holds new riddles with new clues.

New roads to walk down with new shoes,

New company to experience our new views.
