free throw – what’s past is prologue lyrics
[verse 1]
that day i watched as they threw down some seed
in the dirt
around the porch where i always sit and write about what hurts
it seems like some kind of sign, but i shrugged it off
with nothing learned
[chorus 1]
i always look at things at such a surface level
although i’m buried in a deeper hole
always wonder why they’re staring at the shovel
not digging the stable life they all seem to love
[verse 2]
then two weeks later
the blades of gr-ss were starting to appear
and when i noticed
i felt that inner voice whisper in my ear
“you need to change”
[chorus 2]
“you always look at things at such a surface level
although you’re buried in a deeper hole
always wonder why they’re staring at the shovel
but you’re the one that didn’t leave a note
you don’t need to stay the same, have to work for your own change
and [?] faceless f-cking thing”
i always look at things at such a surface level
and at some point i had spun completely out of control
[bridge]
i went from tied down to my bed
to tied up in my head
i was searching for redemption, but dug a deeper hole instead
i left the shovel for someone else
never thinking to dig out myself
it’s a shame i had it figured out
it’s shrouded in a fact i never chose to sprout
with a new change in bloom, it seems there’s more room
for me to finally view the world in all its beauty
i mistakenly -ssume it’s dead and gone
now those days are dead and gone
away
[verse 3]
today i finally learned to say i love myself
finally got out of my godd-mn groove
i learned a way to truly make some [?]
not to keep my f-cking [?]
not everything’s [?]
it’s okay to have some change
if we don’t think we will ever learn from any-f-cking-thing
i learned to say “i love myself” today
i finally learned to love myself
[outro]
for the first time in 4 months i can say
i didn’t think about my choices
threw the almost empty pack away
i can feel my lungs rejoice
i’m finally breathing again
