Move.meant - Yesterday lyrics

If I only knew then what I know now sh** would be so wild Mind of a man, soul of a child No clouds could rain on me No cuts or scrapes could leave blood stains on me Just imagine How to side step the cynics, understand my own limits Embrace the fire when I'm thrown in it Move with supreme confidence, through every team in the conference Reconcile dreams of common sense, dominant No fears or insecurities, appreciate the impurities Build on that, never second guess it, never neglect the lesson On every endeavor I bless the session, man Y'all dont know the half of it, trying to make my renditions accurate Hoping I can capture it for y'all, but now it's like today is my four walls Yesterday... Yesterday is gone... {*cuts from Nas "One Mic"*} No time for lookin back... No time for lookin back... No time for lookin back... it's done Yo, put my best foot forward, took two steps, toward the opposite Back and forth with things, saw a lotta sh** And I was under pressure, now I'm on top of it So now I'm taking all I can get My getaway hit the fork in the road and took the scenic route 'tween me and you, it brought the phoenix out of me So partner you can hate me or love me, cause I might have been wrong But my heart was pure, still, I can't say I dont have regrets Made mistakes I that won't soon forget, expectations I haven't met And yet, I wouldn't trade this moment, pray for atonement Take me for what I am, a romantic but I'm not hopeless Writing my magnum opus, either you're high pysch, or lose focus If you let it, some of y'all will never get it, holding on to... Yesterday... Yesterday is gone... {*cuts from Nas "One Mic"*} No time for lookin back... No time for lookin back... No time for lookin back... it's done I guess that you could say we got a history together So I can never forget her, not bitter Matter of fact sometimes I still hit it Seduced by the way that she call to come hither But I found out the first time I did her I'll never fall in love with her, she gone break your heart Make a mark, leave, and never come back And its hard to say goodbye to her, nobody knows her like I knew her See she one of a kind, just a free spirit, embodied by these lyrics To some, she's not pretty, to me she's beautiful Cause she made me what I am and taught me to be strong So even when she's gone, her memory lives on And over time eventually we lost contact, despite that I gotta admit, I'm still attached, but I can't take her back Cause who I'm talking about is... Yesterday... Yesterday is gone... {*cuts from Nas "One Mic"*} No time for lookin back... No time for lookin back... No time for lookin back... it's done
