Past, Present + Future Lyrics by Cortéz

Faded - EP

2016

[Verse 1]
In September, I pondered, I wandered
November, when we were together
Would you be something that I could hurt?
You're too good, something I don't deserve

[Verse 2]
August, apology accepted
Gave my trust, I probably should've kept it
But I loved the way you would respect it
At least I can move on with my new shit
Damn, damn

[Refrain]
Cause people ain't nothing
But we all need something

[Verse 3]
In July, we get high, I decide
That I'd smoke for you, yeah, I would ride
But you lied then I cried, almost died
Cause you killed all I had left inside
Why? Oh, why, why?

[Refrain]
Cause I ain't do nothing
And we could've been something more
(And we could've been something more)
But people ain't nothing
They always need something

[Bridge]
And I'm just too trusting
I was in love then
I was in love when
The leaves hadn't fell yet
Emotions are still there
They ain't going nowhere
They ain't going nowhere
I wish they'd go somewhere
Somewhere
Where?

[Verse 4]
So here's June
It's too soon
I cuffed you
I loved you
Damn

[Outro]
Past, present, future, future
Past, past, past, present, present, present, future...
