Further Away by Toiryan Lyrics
[Intro]:
You see I want to get personal
With my audience today
Which is something I never do so
Get used to this
Nevermind don't get used to this
Because I don't like telling my
Love stories
I don't love putting them in music
I don't love putting it in poetry
Women are just ignorant nowadays
You see
I met so many women in my lifetime
That were just out to break me
Instead of make me
I guess it's just too much to put
In a song
But if I had to sum it up
It'd go something like this
Yes
[Verse]:
Why do I seem to make it harder
For the next lady
Because the rest were crazy
They say the best are shady
I met a lady named Daisy
And I got a little lazy
To tell her my hearts broken
So my futures hazy
Go ahead and hate me
You could never understand
This kind of man heartbroken
Is high on demand
With a bruised future
Abused like my eyes are purple
She's nothing like my last
I've retracing circles
Because my last one
Said she wasn't like the last one
Who acted like the last one
Who acted like the past one
Who turned out to be the fast one
Promised to be my last one
But good girls today
They turn out to be the bad ones
Trust me that I'm paying homage
Receiving critical comments
From the broken promise
The pain creates bondage
And they say the mans the one
Who wields power
But it still hurts
Like I took a meteor shower
All because she had the nerve
To hit some curves
Cheat on me with all these nerds
Then she end up hurt
The passion in my verbs
Easily balance out my verse
To the next lady to hear this verse
I swear I could've had it worse
Emotions run small
You can wear it on your curves
Carry small amount of cares
You fit it in your purse
I'm not cold-hearted
I'm what the code started
Shoved an iceberg in my chest
Until my heart parted
And now you steady trippin'
Cause I'm talking about it endin'
Before you had the chance to even
Let out a sentence
Those moments come and go
Just like a Biggie entrance
I said those moments come and go
Just like a Biggie entrance
Yeah trust me my care is ancient
Like old egyptians
Don't talk about trust issues
I get my monthly subscription
Yeah women
I'm really sorry you have to listen
While you further away
Just like the others that went missing
It done took a couple verses
And a couple of stanzas
To get you up to date
And to acknowledge the standard
That I'm single for a reason
It could change like a season
But whether you love me or not
It'll never stop me from breathing
I love it's been awhile
Since you've had a man
But to put your trust in me
I hope you got a backup plan
So don't poke out your lips
Or fill those eyes with some resentment
Cause you fell for a guy
Who's not down for commitment
Maybe I am
But I really hate deciding
Because the mind and the heart
Are far from colliding
Take these words and write it
If you really don't buy it
But anything can happen
Didn't David take out Goliath
The last girl who broke me down
Also kept me quiet
From the moment that she cheated
There was nothing but the silence
And now you sayin'
That you been prayin'
And that it's true
That when I kiss you
I give you all the questions
You know answers to
You still further away
Constantly drifting
Holding signs at my concerts
You my baby I'm lifting
Story after story
I missed the last fable
I paint ugly pictures
Like TV with bad cable
Sorry that you trust me
I'm sorry that you love me
And steady telling your friends
You put nothing above me
That you met that perfect man
Who steady treat you like a lady
When it comes to all my friends
I laugh and joke and tell them maybe
I'm not a playa
But you're making a mistake
That Ima play you for these hoes
A nigga steady giving away
I love you girl
I'd give a heart to make you happy
Which is why I gave you mine
To keep that smile pointed at me
This is far from a love story
This is nonfiction for these rappers
Using smaller words
Step up your diction
The contradiction you're makin'
The criticism I'm takin'
To heal my heart with ridicule
So I can give it to my future baby
[Outro]:
Like I said I don't like
Putting my story in songs
I don't like putting my past
On a beat because it's just
Too much to just sum it up
But if I had to for one moment
I'd do it like this
Women love you man
Treat them right
Don't break them down
Like they did me
Because I'm nothing but a shattered man
Dislocated from the rest
Of reality around me
I see love everyday
I look at it as a blur
And I'm not blind my vision is right
Sometimes I just got to
Look into myself
Look deep down and understand
That little boy from high school
He's broken but he's looking
He's searching for love
I hope he finds it one day
Until then see you soon
You see I want to get personal
With my audience today
Which is something I never do so
Get used to this
Nevermind don't get used to this
Because I don't like telling my
Love stories
I don't love putting them in music
I don't love putting it in poetry
Women are just ignorant nowadays
You see
I met so many women in my lifetime
That were just out to break me
Instead of make me
I guess it's just too much to put
