joyce - picture this lyrics

see that picture on the wall in the living room (yeah?)
everyone in it is dead, kind of ironic isn’t it?
how everyone always says
gosh, you look just like them!
but you can’t pretend
you dont wanna be related to people who you can’t relate with
yeah, somedays the people i’ve never met feel closer to me than family ever will
you relating yet?

is that you in that picture right next to the door? no
you won’t see me in any of these photos
dont bring out your camеra now, its not a candid if i know
you see, i’m highly sensitive, don’t worry about the iso
and i’m a prеtty dark person, i’ll always be underexposed

and you know the ones in the hallway
they’ve been hung, all in a line, like capital punishment
faking a smile they dont even feel, just for the sake of it
capturing memories without even making em
in my experience, if you can forget it, its not worth remembering
so let me take my black robes off and adjust to the white
so used to the dark, can’t see in the light
dim it down for me, can we get a moment of silence please?

that was for the people who were never in the picture
for the people who mattered
remember, y’all are not forgotten
yall not forgotten
moment to moment, you gotta go on with life, right
i won’t worship a face in a frame, just cuz they’re not alive
but i will remember every person who was too young to die, eh?
can’t do nothing about it, can i? i can’t, can i? you can, can i?
i’m here to tell you the truth, and the truth is you people are living a …

i want you to picture this
i want you to picture this
put away all your cameras
can you picture it?
i want you to picture this
i want you to picture this
put away all your cameras
can you picture it?
i want you to picture this
i want you to picture this

focus, focus on the lines, focus on the lens
big smiles on, 3, 2, 1, dont blink at the flash
i’m having a flashback, i’m not in the frame
i’m not in the background
i dont crowd around for the scenery
if i’m around, i made the scene
i find the crowds i won’t be seen in
till i rile them up, and they’re singing
jumping up and down with the rhythm
time don’t standstill, but we wishing
we do everything we can to make it
that’s why i hate taking
camera’s prolly never gonna get my picture
camera prolly never gonna get my picture
you getting my picture?
how bout that wooden frame in the stairway? ay?
you tryna find me again, nope thats not me there
i saw the bedroom had a vignette, nope not in that either
ooh, ooh, in the right there, where? right there? no
ohhhh. c’mon that’s gotta be you, i mean look at those eyes. nope
lets not go back to the start, i’m already tired
no wait, what about in the corner there, yeah, that’s not me
check the bas+m+nt garage and attic, you still won’t find me
c’mon you gotta be somewhere, man, where you at?

okay, i didn’t wanna tell you but
you see, i moved out years ago, (what)
yeah, these days i live in my head
you heard what i said
if you’re hearing this now, you know where i am
get what i meant?
you look at every wall in the world
no, i won’t be in any of em
i’m tryna knock down barriers
won’t be the face of em

dont you get it?
i’m not one to be grappled with
i am a name that is delicate
i’m not someone set to the ink, i dont print on the lines i dont resonate with
dont lessen down me to pixels, it’s degrading, i’m bigger than that
i dont smile for the cameras, i smile to myself
when i write a line thats worth keeping, ay?
when i write a line with triple meaning, ay?
yeah nothing compares to that
no one around to see but that’s when i’m laughing, ha
that picture you have with you right now
i’m the one that’ isnt in it, i’m that one in a billion
i might be a run of the mill rapper now
but i ain’t stopping till i run a million
you dont gotta know my name to know my trade
i’ll be selling albums, with no labels, no faces
i wrote my life in this, but if you hear yours, it’s not a mistake
a picture is worth thousand words
those people dont get the depth of what i’m tyrna say, eh
you’ve got picture of life, but you ain’t living yet
you think that 2d is great
well, im here to give you the 5d experience

my gallery is universal, i’ll let anyone enter
but if you see me, it won’t be from the photos
it’ll be cuz i gave you the real picture
