Yesterday - Move.meant

If I only knew then what I know now

shit 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 critics, 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…

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 shit

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 cant say I dont have regrets

made mistakes I that wont 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…

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…

no time for lookin back…

no time for lookin back…

no time for lookin back… it’s done
