Promises by TheArtisin Lyrics

Genre: rap | Year: 2015

[Voicemail Intro:Girl]
"Listen you promised you wouldn't turn your phone off
As always you did
Your promises don't mean anything to me anymore
They don't mean shit just call me back when you hear this ok?
Please call me back, promise me"

[Hook:TheArtisin]
The Promises I made
We're empty and distained
Leaving you in pain
Lost and afraid

The Promises I made
We're empty and distained
Now the love I once portrayed
Has faded away

[Verse 1]
I promised Forever
I promised for worse or for better
I promised we would be together
I promised but I cut the tether
Man, Love is a desert a mortal prison for pleasure
And I refuse to surrender never stopping my ventures
Artists painting collages and even writing out Sonnets
On an ideal thats been polished but to me it's like bondage
Cause I value my freedom I'm talking fuck 'em and leave 'em
Numbers delete them I come and go as the seasons
Don't got time for attachments, storybook reenactments
Women are distractions to life's grand attractions
You want me to promise, I promise not to promise
But not stopping with these harlots
Cause to them I'm like Adonis
[Hook]
The Promises I made
We're empty and distained
Leaving you in pain
Lost and afraid

The Promises I made
We're empty and distained
Now the love I once portrayed
Has faded away
