Let's take it three years back, or something near that

Steel city, mango blunts just to hear raps

And pure relaxing, radio shows

Before it all packed in

Talking, laughing, brewing earl grey

Put a smile on my face on the worst day

In a blurred haze, sun blazed through the window

Time seemed to stop and vinyl would spin slow

As Dennis Brown would sing notes to our hearts content

Why ain't your heart content?

Ever since I met you, your presence is a refuge

It hurts me to think that you need to be rescued

Cause life is a journey that you just gotta get through

And I get you

Your whole aura is beautiful

It's crazy with you

Like there's nothing to prove to you

You're so true too

Mind switches with the seconds

You're so grateful when others wouldn't mention

Stop, Stop

Put it in perspective

Life's negative when you're forgetting all the best bits

Think, Think

About your perspective

This cycle ain't endless, take your hurt and neglect it

Stop, Stop

Put it in perspective

Life's negative when you're forgetting all the best bits

Think, Think

About your perspective

This cycle ain't endless, take your hurt and neglect it

Your friendship, means the world to me

I can't put into words what you're worth to me

It's hurting me seeing you like this

Like all of sudden you're just so lifeless

Then your face lights up and you're back again

Like your mask's away and you've passed the pain

You don't have to expalin how you feel to me

I see it in your eyes, it's so real to me

I didn't mean to be distant

I just couldn't see you hurt from this distance

With you, I listen and I hear wisdom

So don't be foolish cause life's for living

And it's easy to say

But blazing ** everyday has got you fading away

And now I can't see your rays

Please shine like you used to

You still do but you need a new rhythm to move to

This life soon dismisses

Stop, Stop

Put it in perspective

Life's negative when you're forgetting all the best bits

Think, Think

About your perspective

This cycle ain't endless, take your hurt and neglect it

Stop, Stop

Put it in perspective

Life's negative when you're forgetting all the best bits

Think, Think

About your perspective

This cycle ain't endless, take your hurt and neglect it

You’re so talented. Don’t let that fade

No matter what you’re going through, don’t let that change

Cause days… months… years are a progression

A hundred versions and a million lessons

So when heaven seems out of your grasp

Focus on the future and let go of the past

Cause back when we first spoke you were care-free

Or was that all an act in order not to scare me?

I’d barely spent much time in your company

Then suddenly I thought you were just up and cutting me

You should’ve trusted me from back then

I’d have been there when you seemed scared

You and me’s rare or it was last year

And I know men don’t cry – they hold back tears

But so you know you’re a blessing in the past its clear

Nobody else can match you or in fact come near
