I Forgave You by Trabolee Lyrics
[Intro]
This is a letter to you
This is a letter to you
All Roads Lead Home
Tra
This is a letter to you
[Verse 1]
Play life, let’s press rewind
Family times, no reunions just funerals, that’s how we gathered
In good times nobody bothered
I wondered, I had one dad but no father
Sometimes my mind wanders searching for answers but now it can’t wonder no further
Used to cry every night until my eyes were large
Then I realized holding the mic is better than holding a grudge
Combine the negatives of life and try to proceed/perceive with a positive charge
It was all clouds and son needed shining
Hoping I’ll make mama proud coz she showed me the silver lining
I had to ponder you were kinda cold and I was just a toddler
Cut your arm off when you needed a shoulder
I tried to mend my soul like I needed a cobbler
But it’s too late for tears now
You’re like spilt milk already under the earth, I face my fears now
Won’t fight my instincts, through your death I was rebirthed
Don’t get it confused, there is no anger in my voice
Nobody told you to choose but you decided to make a choice
You decided to make a choice
You decided to make a choice
You decided to make a choice
And then you… ah!
[Hook]
You forsaked me, I forgave you
You erased me, I tried to embrace you
You forsaked me, I forgave you
You erased me, I tried to embrace you
You forsaked me, I forgave you
You erased me, I tried to embrace you
I forgave you, I forgave you
I forgave you, I forgave you
I forgave you, I forgave you
I forgave you, I forgave you
[Verse 2]
The end was the genesis
You and the apple of my eye went from lovers to friends, to enemies with benefits
And I was just a kid watching it
Hoping the apple will fall far from the tree, it wasn’t that bad
But I have painful memories so I push the pain through the pen
For the fatherless sons that grow up to be men
I just needed a plan when I was playing like now I’m chasing a dream and I don’t see the cheese like blind mice
And it’s times like these I just need a piece of advice
I don’t hate you
I just wish it was different
I wish I could face you and not hit the reefer for reference
But I’m different, I’m gonna make a difference
That was cold how you cheated on mama
Hit the road then you bumped into karma
But the pain I couldn’t mask it
The day I saw you froze, cotton in your nose, laying in that casket
My feelings tried to hide till I realized […] danger
Reality flooded my eyes and so I cried for a familiar stranger
Lord knows your last days were the darkest
You had no peace and I don’t know the half
I just hope you find beautiful bliss coz you suffered enough
And as I write, my eyes close and my mind opens
I realize you had love it was just not spoken
So for the birthdays forgotten, the hearts that were broken
I forgive you and forget the past
Coz yeah we had issues but no you were not the worst
I forgave you
[Outro Bridge]
I forgave you, I forgave you
I forgave you, I forgave you
I forgave you, I forgave you
[Outro]
You are something the whole universe is doing in the same way that the wave is something the whole ocean is doing. The real you is not a puppet which life pushes around. The real deep down you is the whole universe. So then, when you die, you’re not going to have to put up with everlasting non-existence because that’s not an experience
A lot of people are afraid that when they die they’re going to be locked up in a dark room forever. And sort of undergo that. But, one of the most interesting things in the world, this is a yoga, this is a way of realization, try and imagine what it would be like to go to sleep and never wake up. Think about that. Children think about it
It’s one of the great wonders of life: what would it be like to go to sleep and never wake up? And if you think long enough about that, something will happen to you. You’ll find out, among other things, that, ah, it will pose the next question to you: what was it like to wake up after having never gone to sleep? That was when you were born
You see, you, you can’t have an experience of nothing. Nature opposes a vacuum. So after you are dead, the only thing that can happen is the same experience or the same sort of experiences when you were born
This is a letter to you
This is a letter to you
