[ Intro x2 ] It's been a while since, It's been a while since, It's been a while since y'all heard my voice. [ Verse 1 ] It's been a while since I've been on a track, That's because my soul became solely abstract, I remained in my own darness while sadly intact, I've been gone too long, but now I'm finally back, It's been a while since someone wiped my tears, I refuse to break down with these futile fears, With these watery eyes my vision's still clear, Even if I fall down without any help near, It's been a while since the last time I fell in love, A shattered broken heart is plainly plentiful enough, My heart no longer bleeds, I've bled all my blood, And the love I could give has painly drowned in the flood. It's been a while since my last thoughts of suicide, 'Cause I finally found the reason for living my life, I walk forward slowly with the future in sight, Alive outside, but soulless inside. [ Chorus x2 ] Though time has pa**ed by through the sights of our eyes, We must live every day without a certain demise, Put all the sadness, pain and struggle aside, And try to find the bright sunshine in your life. [ Verse 2 ] It's been a while since I've been truly blessed, Why would I anyway with numerous pains in my chest? Remember these words, man: Life is a quest, We're all in search of this one thing that is the best, It's been a while since I knew and had a best friend, Could this finally be the end of a lonely man? Anxiety's the common state I trend and tend to apprehend, And insomnia keeps me wide awake to a late extent, It's been a while since I had a reason to smile, There's nothing else left to do that's worth my while, If you take my 9's and walked a few couple miles, You would understand why I'm widely versatile, It's been a while since the last time I felt good, Disappear forever? sh**, I don't know how I would, f**, I gotta make sure and wonder if I really should, So many various feelings; I'm misunderstood. [ Chorus x2 ] Though time has pa**ed by through the sights of our eyes, We must live every day without a certain demise, Put all the sadness, pain and struggle aside, And try to find the bright sunshine in your life. [ Verse 3 ] It's been a while since I lost my only soul, And the stroll has been done on a lonely road, As long as I'm alone and grown, I know I'm in control, Of the outcome of things that will one day unfold, It's been a while since I flew and felt really high, And I broke every bone as I fell from the sky, Distinguished in anguish, all I do is sigh, And when I meet my sorrows, I have the urge to cry, It's been a while since my past visit in hell, I was painfully burnt the last time I fell, As I rose from the ashes, I dwell and swell Because I know I'm free but stuck life's jail cell, It's been a while since I've asked a question, I'll repress and regress in my own depression, I'm oppressed and agressed in my own obsession, My confessions are revealed through my expressions. [ Chorus x4 ] Though time has pa**ed by through the sights of our eyes, We must live every day without a certain demise, Put all the sadness, pain and struggle aside, And try to find the bright sunshine in your life.
