lyrics

Chorus
Can I really get to where I’m suppose to be
Or am I here for eternity
Can I keep your picture really close to me
While my legs no longer stand me up

Verse
Trying to get where I’m suppose to be
Alone in a world that opposes me
Turns it’s back and cold shoulders me
Wish I could keep you close to me
Bold, you took a hold of me
Normally, she wouldn’t go for me
She’s the earthy kind well refined
A dime beautifully designed ahead of her time
She wins hearts and opens minds
She closed in and opened mine
She says life’s but a twinkle of an eye
And we living on borrowed time blind
And I don’t know why she sees qualities
That I don’t quite see, my insight
Proved to be weak can I keep?
Your picture close to me? follow me

Chorus
Can I really get to where I’m suppose to be
Or am I here for eternity
Can I keep your picture really close to me
While my legs no longer stand me up

Verse
Suppose, I’m being molded for eternity
With the most omnipotent at the centerpiece
It’s simple man doing the best I can
With what it is I have do the math
Overcome mishaps and adapt
Escape the trap and never look back
We chat for hours about our past
And tap on future plans to make an impact
She appears composed and intact
What more can I say after the facts?
Hurt, the backlash lurks the pain irks
For days it never really fades away
The subtleties of dismay
It’s the empty look on her face
Quietly placed on my pillowcase
That says something grave
Like oh me oh my, my mistake

Chorus
Can I really get to where I’m suppose to be
Or am I here for eternity
Can I keep your picture really close to me
While my legs no longer stand me up

Verse
Oh solitude still with me is you
A moment to reflect get an inside view
Take a second to heal my open wounds
Shield me in the onset of a monsoon
Hear the naked truth exposing me
Apologize for exposing you
Can I really be real with you?
And reveal my guilt to you?
I need to dig in deep to uproot
The weed, the lies, the pride, the greed
My strife, the grind, the street in me
Indeed the seed can die if weak
Soil is dry I really believe it’s fertile
For you and me if we allow ourselves
To let go and grow, we’ll reap,
The noble seeds we sow so

Chorus
Can I really get to where I’m suppose to be
Or am I here for eternity
Can I keep your picture really close to me
While my legs no longer stand me up
