today /// tomorrow /// yesterday.


they seem to -
talk to me more in code, knowing that i -
know exactly what it is that they're getting at;
anguish; pain too - both similar languages -
both are the definition & meaning to what
successful & famous is;
love covers all said the Lord -
but sometimes pride makes me hate myself & thats -
something that i know i can't afford;
i look at today & seen no remaining pieces of yesterday -
& just a glimpse of tomorrow..
can i borrow YOUR shoulder? can you respect a grown man crying?
i can see this S fadin' - but my grandma told me i was a fighter; (pauses)
all we wish for is those angels that we hear today to -
help guide us through tomorrow -
carrying regrets on our sleeves & our hearts in our hands;
hopin' that they're received & kept by one, never borrowed..
taking yesterday & today, & putting them in a bottle..
