keep your heart

“I think people would be happier if they admitted things more often. In a sense we are all prisoners of some memory, or fear, or disappointment—we are all defined by something we can’t change.”

— Simon Van Booy

I'm goin' through things

Grey hairs on my head, mean I know a few things

I bought a iPhone that travels through time

FaceTime done got younger me on the line

Soon as he saw me he just started cryin'

I told him, "Relax, everythin' gon' be fine"

He wiped off his face and said he tryna be strong

But some days he feel like he doin' it wrong

I told him, "Hold on," and passed out my phone to my oldest son

And my youngest one said, I want you to look them straight in their face

Do that look like you've been makin' mistakes?

Shared you with my friends, the Pops they never had

You lived for our fishin' trips, damn, I had a dad

Mine taught discipline, mine taught structure

Mine didn't mind when he had to pull a double

Mine worked overtime, smiled through the struggle

'Cause mine wouldn't let us feel what he had to suffer

See, mine made sure he had every base covered

So imagine his pain findin' base in the cupboard

Sometimes you forget that you’re in the middle of what you prayed for.

A person at war with themselves is a person at war with you too. It’s not personal.
