lyrics

It’s,
Really hard just to sum it up in words
I tried to do good, but I couldn’t have done worse.
Should have done better, I didn’t wanna’ get hurt.
Should have left letters or something to explain but,
I couldn’t even write it in a verse…
That’s supposed to be the only way my thoughts exert.
I guess, I don’t have a valid excuse
Cause I’ve always been so mad about you.
That look in your eyes only come sin a few,
I could see you for miles when you’re coming through -
You’re on of a kind,
I would recognise,
You can’t change that smile on your face
Or the look that you give me when you’re in my arms.
I hope you forgive me for all of these scars,
I hope that you know you’re in all of my bars..
I think of you when I look up to them stars,
When I look at how far, we came
Why did I give up. I just feel so ashamed;
Feel so lame.
I pushed you to them and I know I’m to blame
But I can not pretend it didn’t kill me to hear what you did.
Now, you don’t even know what love is
I, could show you if you can forgive
I love you so much and it’s so much to give
But you’re worth that and more.
Without you I’m nothing but poor,
Nothing but a shell of what I was before
What I was with you.
When you’re at my sides there’s nothing I can’t do -
But you need to explain:
Why did it feel like you were pushing away?
At least a month before I made that mistake…
Maybe I was tripping,
But even my best friend said my mood was dipping,
I guess I was spending a lot of time thinking:
What if our love was a boat that was sinking?
Did you still love me?
Something was missing..
Imagining you while I’m sat in the kitchen,
Away for a month I didn’t think that you missed me.
Then I got high as fuck, ended up kissing a girl,
I regretted it straight away ‘cause you’re my girl -
‘Cause you’re my world.
Then I got lost in my thoughts
I pushed you away ‘cause I wanted you more?
I don’t even know how that works,
I know I can’t fit what I did with just words!
Maybe the pain is just what I deserve..
My heat has been aching,
Has been for ages
Writing about you I get so frustrated
My mind is a puzzle I grasp all the basics,
I lost the big game but I had all the Aces…
Then, I lost your heart
I always knew you were the one from the start
At least our start,
I couldn’t get used to us being apart.
Only an hour that isn’t so hard
I could hop on a train and then you’re in my arms.
Your voice is so calming,
There’s nothing better then seeing you laughing,
Taking my sweater without even asking
But I couldn’t care less.
‘Cause you’re my darling,
Been through some hard times
I left at the hardest…
Now, I want it all back,
I know I’m so selfish, I’m sorry for that.
I can only explain through these “sorry ass” raps,
I don’t understand how your love is intact -
I feel like a criminal,
Ripped out your heart then I put it back into you.
But, maybe I needed this interval
Needed this break,
To fix myself up I was digging my grave.
Pulling you down I didn’t want you to cave
Cause, you are so strong;
And you are so brave -
You tell me you’re not,
But that’s okay ‘cause I know that you are
And that won’t ever change.
You’re like my start that is guiding the way…
I could keep raping for days,
When you’re on my mind
There’s so much I could say….
Girl, I could keep rapping for days,
When you’re on my mind
There’s so much I could say….

about

natestapes London, UK

My dreams and ambitions have led me here, aged 20, I'm now looking to jump start my music career.
Rap is more than a craft or a job to me. It brings my emotions to life and I feel myself live through it. I hope I can convey this in my songs.
I'm always looking for ways to improve, increasing the possible outcomes of my work tenfold.
My feet are, and always will be firmly planted on the ground.
