lirik lagu marc knight - places i never left
[verse 1: marc knight]
listen
mindless thoughts on the pages
and people that i love turn to porcelain faces
’cause i couldn’t face ’em
these people changin’
for the worst on me, so i been fillin’ vases
with dyin’ flowers to represent every soul that heaven’s claimin’
and music done helped my soul retain its
happiness in a world where i been complacent
i’m content with my heart bein’ vacant
no more wastin’ my life and the day, since
i should’vе tried better
did bеtter and tried better
inside of my head, a hauntin’ trifecta
i let sh~t fester inside, and react badly to benign gestures
call me hester the way i was runnin’ up and down that field tryna make everybody better
i had to sideline my story and my adventures for others
some i considered my brothers, but it don’t matter
i got a good heart, i couldn’t help but love ’em, and now i wonder
if my failures was worth the struggle
if lovin’ those who didn’t deserve it was worth the trouble
and here’s the part where they tell me, “shut the f~ck up, be humble”
i shoulda never let them pop my bubble
i was f~ckin’ hoes who would knock my hustle
there’s more baggage to carry inside my duffle
it’s too much for all my bones and muscles
too grown for all the games and the puzzles
don’t bring me up in all those discussions, you know my dogs ain’t ever wearin’ muzzles
i don’t know nothin’ but pain in my life
those inflictin’ it never made it right
maybe it’s time that i hang up the mic
they couldn’t save me twice
and i been dead since they taught me the rules and showed me that nothin’ could really bring me light
i’m wonderin’ when my arc ends
i’m only twenty~eight, but ain’t seen none in the art then
i’m just an older version of that kid on the park bench
askin’ when it was gon’ get easier for marcus, for marcus
yeah
[verse 2: cherray]
look
as a kid, i was starin’ out the window
caged bird singin’ crescendos
wanna fly, but you stay grounded ’cause you ten toes
tryna break free, then you may see you stuck in limbos
started prayin’ for freedom, then i finally got the memo
we been blessed for a reason
those desolate seasons
when we go to war with ourselves in hopes of bestin’ our demons
god just wants to see where your heart is
when the light at the end of the tunnel seems the farthest
that’s when life seems the darkest
that’s when you write the hardest
that’s our gift as an artist
this isn’t for marc knight, this is cherray to marcus
i was starin’ out the window, that’s when i happened to see you
speakin’ art from the heart, and lettin’ the rhythm lead you
becomin’ a vessel that other people freely speak through
stories so beautiful, but, marcus, you gotta be you
i’m writing this for marcus, but i guess it goes for me too
don’t ever give up the mic, ’cause you don’t know who out there needs out
[verse 3: marc knight]
i always wanted to be loved by the man (i did)
he used to be the root of all my self~destructive acts (he was)
i had to get closure on things i needed bad, so i was hittin’ up my aunt for the number to call my f~ckin’ dad
i needed to heal, his apology had saved my ass (it did)
it made me realize i can’t keep runnin’ from my past (i can’t)
and he’s the reason i love to rap
another grown man with daddy issues tryna act like he don’t give a d~mn
look
i done enough reflectin’
and i’m not satisfied with my reflections
i was overcorrectin’
i was tryin’ to purpose perfection
worried ’bout all the hateful reception
these steppin’ stones still in my collection
i got a grip and can handle it
the rejection that’s projected on my really mismanagement
in remembrance to the negligence y’all showed in the past to me knowin’ i unload raps in my clips
but i’m mirage with an active eclipse
the way the shadows have kept me alive
and everybody say they best the guy
ain’t no comparin’ a peasant to gods
though i’m desolate, i’m still heavy in mind
actin’ like i ain’t f~ck with y’all, is still a facade
i spilt blood in this ocean and dyed it colors that don’t seem to fade
imagine if i never tried to better than what you had became
yeah
