TANTALUS

Aye, aye, aye, aye It's so much pressure to do this song I just want it to be right Um Um Hi Lately it's hard to reach you I feel like Tantalus Tell me what damaged us Connection breaking up messy statements we made Conversatin' through cameras No love lost but the feelings have faded a bit We ain't acrylic as we was Watercolors in the sun Never prepared for rain to come Tears to run My face flooded that night we broke the levee Lately you not as heavy on my mind Truthfully I was never ready for time to change us Never knew when, you were coldly pragmatic And I was A sloppy apathetic hopeless romantic And we were Nothing more than the truest form of what we would've been Seasons change we rearrange Cold at the winters end F*ck it we live and we learn Our fire still burns But now we candles A wildfire surely would've burned the book of us Our story isn't over my friend But we turned a page, we'll never be December again And Lately it's hard to reach you I feel like Tantalus Tell me what's happening 'Cause this shit is Maddening I don't got time to play no games with you 2K20 been crazy And I don't need no hate from you Lately Lately Lately it's hard to talk and easy to complicate you Using big words to say the littlest shit "Fornicate you" Lately I'm too impatient Lately I need some space to breathe This shit is suffocating You know we always been Hot headed, hard headed and stubborn as f*ck No hard feelings, you my kin and I love you but f*ck It's like Lately keeping my composure don't bring you closure Like that old song I might Cut you off to grow closer But we live and we learn Build on a bridge that we burned Hoping that one day we cross paths again The story doesn't have to end And if the storm settles and you wash up on my shore Just give me a knock And I'll come and I'll open the door And Lately it's hard to reach me I feel like Tantalus standing in front a mirror Reaching for an understanding That's deeper that what I seen on the camera or the screen Tryna find a place in a world that was bigger than what it seemed Lately my shoulder been cold I cut off my phone Reminisce on my kinfolk I miss em but I never wrote home Shut all my windows And dream up a lie about living happily Cutting ties with my friends And forgetting to visit family Sit in my dorm, bong toking, dreaming bout a grammy When the last time I seen my granny was on a Gram post Last word I heard of her was from a gram caption She passed And I was too busy getting my album cracking But we live and we learn The world still turns I look out and try to channel my vision But all I see is static on the television All I see is static on the television
