I haven't written a song in a long time...but what everything going on my life right now I felt like writing!

Let me know what y'all think! (oh Yeah, the chorus is from the Lupe Fiasco song "The Instrumental")

Stars & Scars

Chorus x 2

Now you can’t tell me just who you are

You buying them clothes just to hide those scars

You built that roof just to hide those stars

Now you can’t take it back to the start

Verse 1

A million question are bouncing through me mind

And the answers are locked up, really hard to find

Lesson learned from the mistakes I’ve made

Don’t ever EVER loose your faith

I’m a sucker for love with no backbone

A home is just a house when the love is gone

I’m counting my blessings and learning my lessons

While we fade away like intersections

We wane be lovers but don’t know what romance is

Ready for the long run but don’t know what the plan is

Can this…really be going on

Or am I…just making it up in this song

When lips come together they do one thing

Separate cause it would only be a one night fling

My eyes are red and my cheeks feel wet

Cause you like a metaphor…you hard to get

Chorus x 2

Now you can’t tell me just who you are

You buying them clothes just to hide those scars

You built that roof just to hide those stars

Now you can’t take it back to the start

Verse 2

You’re my sunlight in the middle of the night

And my moonlight in the broad day light…

You just don’t make sense!

And I’m feeling a little les confident

I know I’m loosing my strength

Hit my head against the wall, it’s a dead end

And I wane be more than just a friend

The weakness of the heart is what keeps us apart

That’s why you can’t take it back to the start

I laugh and I cry, live and I die

While this life is passing me by

I’m breaking the rules and paying my dues

Making my moves, try walking a day in my shoes

I’m covered with sadness and blackness

Cause life doesn’t look too attractive

The matter of fact is, I’m affected

By my love you rejected, neglected

So I’m taking this feeling and eject it

Cause I tried but failed to perfect it

Chorus x 2

Now you can’t tell me just who you are

You buying them clothes just to hide those scars

You built that roof just to hide those stars

Now you can’t take it back to the start

"My eyes are red and my cheeks feel wet

Cause you like a metaphor…you hard to get" - please explain that 1st line to me. That 2nd was nice. Good usage.

"I laugh and I cry, live and I die

We should get a FuQ & Tinus reunion in the future, cause you stuff is sharper since the last time.
