Then/Now Lyrics by MC Crae

A Record of Therapy

2014

[Hook]
We were down at the park til the dark playing Deli
Waiting for my girl to hit me up on the tele
Bumping summertime hits like Machine Gun Kelly
Chewing barbecue until we filled in the belly
Remembering the good times I once had
Thinking what I did to make all go bad
Sitting on the curb wishing you were next to me
But I'm sorry, I'm busy living in the memory

[Verse I]
Playing ball in the streets
Waiting for the lights to tell us time to come and eat
Cuts on my arms/scabs on the knees
Stinging in the skin from the sweet summer breeze
After the food there were television specials
Staying up late, go to bed at eleven (huh)
Talking in the after hours figure out the issues
The days so repetitive we ran outta tissues
Can't wipe away the memory
Wishing I could go back to when I was a better me
Back when there was not a damn thing to worry bout
I could take a stroll and I wouldn't have to hurry out
I was looking forward to growing up
Wishing for whatever, not knowing it would suck
Cherish it/every little moment that you have
Because the happiness you have finds a home in the past

[Hook]

[Verse II]
Once you taste the bliss you can
Guzzle it down with a vase of shit
And that's how I describe the current point
Fighting for the silence up against the bully noise
Now I'm looking all around me
Noticing nothing but dirt in my surroundings
And the silhouettes of people walking away
Wondering what I did to make you not wanna stay
But that's how life works
Every so often you get kicked by the world
Every couple of days I find myself on the floor
With your back turned/but there's not a hole in yours
So I return to the concrete
Taking bike paths off my mind's streets
And you weren't told to come find me
So just let me reminisce a minute bout my minds peace
