I can't forget/
I can't look past/
The past you made/
Imagine that....
lyrics
(Vrs)
There’s demons in the closet, next to the skeletons/
Reaking of gossip, you wondered where the hell it went/
When you tried to sweep it all under the rug/
Didn’t disappear, difference here, nothing but love/
Lost a cost of crossing folks/
Watch this cause a lot of those/
With a guilty conscious to react/
Spitting filthy comments makes me laugh/
(Chorus)
I can’t forget
I can’t see passed
That past you made
Imagine that (x4)
(Vrs)
Been told to live in His image when it comes to forgiveness/
But I’m only human and done reached my limits/
Fool me once, that’s a shame you carry/
Three strikes later, shoulda named you Barry/
Bonds broken last nerve trampled what’s the next step/
If I turn a blind eye, trip-fall, head check/
Can’t let this pattern persist or I’m part of the problem
Best solutions to sum up when they’re starting and stop them/
Before shit multiples-you’re left like a democrat/
Liberal with love, sets you back bet that ass/
Deeper in the red, see how this makes me salty/
Like high tide, blood pressure sky rise-falling/
From grace under fire of course that’s how the bridge burned/
But turbulent waters below forced the outcome in turn/
Disaster unavoidable, relief just a myth/
Some see this as cold hearted, to me it just is/
(Chorus)
(Vrs)
So what do you want? For me to act like nothing happened?
You act like a punk, deserve a fucking back hand/
Hypocritical individual who don’t get it bro/
This is the effect of your action, now if your soul/
Swears up and down that you side with innocence/
It’ll take more than empty words to convince the kid/
Too many times I’ve turned cheek you’ve burned me/
Bit me in the ass at last this old dog’s learning/
The older you get the less people you can call friends/
When they punch their numbers in, equals when it all ends/
Some say that I’m hung up and I should let shit go/
No te preocupes con pendejos, dejelos/
Live and let live, better yet keep them out of sight/
After thoughts but homie, don’t even doubt I’ve tried/
Same mistake repeatedly classified as insanity/
Trying to get right left me just as bad it seems…
