Perspectives - Pat D & Lady Paradox.mp3

[00:03.30](Verse 1)
[00:18.63]Let's take it three years back, or something near that.
[00:21.76]Steel city, mango blunts just to hear raps.
[00:24.90]And pure relaxing, radio shows
[00:26.70]Before it all packed in.,talking, laughing
[00:28.53]Brewing earl grey,put a smile on my face on the worst day.
[00:32.40]In a blurred haze, sun blazed through the window.
[00:34.89]Time seemed to stop and vinyl would spin slow.
[00:37.34]As Dennis Brown would sing notes to our hearts content.
[00:39.84]Why ain't your heart content?
[00:41.70]Ever since I met you, your presence is a refuge.
[00:43.87]It hurts me to think that you need to be rescued.
[00:46.32]Cause life is a journey that you just gotta get through.
[00:49.30]When I get you,your whole aura is beautiful.
[00:51.19]It's crazy with you, like there's nothing to prove to you,
[00:54.70]You're so true too, mind switches with the seconds.
[00:56.57]You're so grateful when others wouldn't mention.
[00:59.16]Stop, Stop,
[01:00.17]Put it in perspective.
[01:01.76]life's negative when you're forgetting all the best bits.
[01:03.98]Think, Think
[01:05.14]About your perspective.
[01:06.31]this cycle ain't endless, take your hurt and neglect it.
[01:08.87]Stop, Stop,

[01:18.86](Verse 2) Your friendship, means the world to me.
[01:21.65]I can't put into words what you're worth to me.
[01:23.71]It's hurting me seeing you like this, like
[01:25.71]All of sudden, you're just so lifeless.
[01:28.27]Then your face lights up and you're back again.
[01:30.75]Like your mask's away and you've passed the pain.
[01:33.35]You don't have to expalin how you feel to me.
[01:35.56]I see it in your eyes, it's so real to me.
[01:37.61]I didn't mean to be distant.
[01:39.61]I just couldn't see you hurt from this distance.
[01:42.21]With you, I listen and I hear wisdom.
[01:44.34]So don't be foolish cause life's for living.
[01:46.39]And it's easy to say but blazing ****
[01:48.31]everyday has got you fading away.
[01:50.21]And now I can't see your rays,please shine like you used to.
[01:54.39]You still do but you need a new rhythm to move to.
[01:59.38](Hook) Stop, Stop,
[02:00.24]Put it in perspective.
[02:01.57]life's negative when you're forgetting all the best bits.
[02:03.98]Think, Think
[02:04.85]About your perspective.
[02:06.24]this cycle ain't endless, take your hurt and neglect it.

[02:15.18]About your perspective.
[02:16.58]this cycle ain't endless, take your hurt and neglect it.
[02:19.12](Verse 3) You’re so talented. Don’t let that fade.
[02:21.22]No matter what you’re going through, don’t let that change.
[02:23.60]Cause days… months… years are a progression.
[02:26.34]A hundred versions and a million lessons.
[02:28.34]But when heaven seems out of your grasp.
[02:31.23]Focus on the future and let go of the past.
[02:33.68]Cause back when we first spoke you were care-free.
[02:36.20]Or was that all an act in order not to scare me?
[02:38.75]I’d barely spent much time in your company.
[02:41.68]Then suddenly I thought you were just up and cutting me.
[02:43.97]You should’ve trusted me from back then.
[02:45.95]I’d have been there when you seemed scared.
[02:47.99]You and me’s rare or it was last year.
[02:50.03]And I know men don’t cry – they hold back tears.
[02:52.12]But so you know you’re a blessing in the past its clear.
[02:54.82]Nobody else can match you or in fact come near.
