wasaru - monuments lyrics
[verse 1]
promises, songs became monuments
of water poured into the sand where’s nothing blossoming
gave what i had when it wasn’t what was wanted
nor needed, is that an excuse so you can keep it?
love has no refunds, that’s why we feel cheated
noone to blame yet, no use being lenient
romanticism pictures us meeting on a day
so fleeting, far away in the future
where depression can’t claw at us no more, nor would it
or could it, impatient me wishing it was sooner
realism sees us splitting, time goes by
and we find what we looked for in each other inside
we don’t look in each other and find someone who cares
but resentment for reminding each other of past fears
so talks are less frequent, we’ll come across pictures
of each other in the arms of another lover
beaming
just another chapter in a book never finished
one day you’ll play that song and cry tears, ’cause you remember
your man’s gonna ask: “what’s wrong?”, you’ll say: “nothing”
and erase it, a memory to trace the one that made it
you’ve learned to let go of the past, and so i faded
you’ll know it to be true, you just hate it ’cause i say it
[verse 2]
promises, songs became monuments
of oaths sworn solemnly, back in 2003
we used to rec songs on tapes, making beats on the playstation, bang’em on your ngage, kids hating
never gave a thought, i felt i would be a star
we’d be on, all them hoes gon’ be there when we perform
dreams of a teenager, met with a crew, thought we would be major
but setbacks have changed us
your bro always got in some sh-t, me and moms always fighting
i dropped out of high school, you dropped the mic
then i locked myself in, made songs and kept writing
met my first girlfriend, everything was tight
then three years later hit rock bottom, i had to change
you was in debt, stressing hard, dawg, i felt your pain
i bought pots for your crib, brought food on my visits
you asked me if i’m really still spitting
played you my newest songs, you would never listen
started sneak dissing my plans
i saw the ending when you unfriended me, i was grinning
a year later, walked past me, pretending that i’m a stranger
false pride on both sides, you were probably jaded
from seeing me doing me without you, like i won’t make it
it’s all good, live your life, you know what f-cks me up
we will never get to see each other coming up
[verse 3]
promises, songs became monuments
of goals there to dwarf all your former great accomplishments
when aspiring and struggling become synonymous
and success is measured by economists
when you make enough money, people praise you like a prophet be beautiful enough, they treat you like a goddess
people love to wax poetic about purpose
what they really mean is sell your motherf-cking product
nothing deep about it, i ain’t feeling philosophic
people preach self-love, and some do it for a profit
in love with potential like it’s all about a concept
but hate it when a person’s really honest
i am not a rapper, i just rap, maybe i am not an artist
or maybe i’m whatever you decide, but i doubt it
i love to contradict myself, as an iconoclast
always busy creating personal monuments
