lyrics

You and I, we're always aiming high, at an all time high, now I think it's time to rewind
To the time you made a choice, 'cause of you feeling inclined, to make an early birthday gift,
Anyone could get behind
That idea alone, was had told me your soul was in need in love,
Understand, from the beginning, this what we both provoked.
To think it started from twitter just 'cause of a work of art that would slowly build foundation.
Throughout it, I had a bit of self-esteem issues.
We stayed in touch, yet I still felt that l was missing you.
I learned not long after staring into space,
Giving you your space was important,
Had to face the fact that I couldn't escape
What mostly couldn't be controlled.
I don't work in security, I had insecurities.
As an observer, at times, I took some things to heart,
but the main issue was that we didn't know how to start with confrontation.
Our feelings were not clear, but we continued to steer
Yes some days were foggy, but most days were clear.
That is why we're here
Love is why we're here
Laughter's why we're here.
I am sensitive,
You are delicate,
We are near and dear, (1:39)
The end was what you feared.
Yet despite all of that,
including the minor setbacks,
We both still had our backs.
Understand the ups and downs were only what we lacked.
I think the most beautiful thing is that we're giving each other a new perspective.
Understanding each other can be a underrated trait within a lot of relationships,
Which explains why they break.
You already knew this, but we are never takin' breaks.
We are both observant, to an extent we might be crazy.
April 5th, 2020. A day you could've been lazy,
But you weren't, I'm the light in your dark.
Your Sanctuary.


You are beautiful,
I'm sorry,
Tu estas hermosa.
On each other's minds on the daily,
We're getting closer.
Emotionally bound,
So hug me and drop a tear.
No need to think the relationship's ever droppin' a tier.
Understand that what we have is not common, our bonding's the reason
As to why we've been longing for long and it would be a total waste
If it was dropped over nonsense.
You've always been by my side, during my losses.
Respect, love, and trust always goes a long way
To the people that's listening, do your part and don't play.
This ain't a game, but play your role like a role playing game.
Take a Dive to the Heart, proceed to awaken what's been dormant.
When you do believe, then that means that you can wait, patience has another meaning
in which it is called Faith.
If you want the best for who's Dearly Beloved,
Then there's no need to be Heartless.
Caution is fine, but sincerity in action
is key to define the dynamic between those
Who apply said knowledge of lines
Not crossed, or crossed.
There's Cause and effect, the effect of causing.
Regardless, it is EXP both parties will need in order to achieve
Love that is on the level of Simple and Clean.
