brian october - through the hourglass lyrics

[verse: one]
n+ggas wanted to ride the wave
and i sold ‘em the boat
if only jealousy could keep it afloat
i did all of that for murder, she wrote
i, cleared my throat and i halter to note
these are the songs that i wrote
in an attempt to help me
raised with the thugs
and the people that were born empty
looked in the mirror had me feeling
like i never met me
but only these melodies are coming on
to tempt me
amanda’s boyfie wasn’t there
when i made her feel so jaded
she learned to think like a man
instead of complicated
went on to share some memories
that i loved and hated
she is the reason why i think love is overrated
she said, “i knew i was destined to fail
and all my brothers were destined for jail
they robbed me of my innocence
and put me up for sale
how my sadness would always prevail
i like love but follow the pain
i hope you understand”
[refrain]
i want this sh+t to bleed

[verse: two]
i hope you understand
i wrote this one for all my dogs
that follow their tail, broke as h+ll
none of them has found the paper trail
they wrote letters
to governments that ain’t checking the mail
pain in our hearts heavy enough to tip
or break the scale
man in the mirror is always with a pen
in his hand
he’s telling me that all the people can see
is a brand
he’s telling me that he’s
the only one who understands
he’s telling me that it’s always me and him
in the end
you never really see it coming
you just see it go
gave you my all before i kept you
on the need to know
judging me by my past, it was a cue
for me to go
playing my part but never really there
to see the show
“i never want to lose you” has been a loss for me
i spent time on break ups
and barely making up
a born sinner
n0body would bear the cross for me
wiser and older, i could count on you
to wake me up, peace!
[outro]
she said, i hope you’ll understand
