After Effects
Intro:
You know, I always thought this shit was just a cliche
And who knows, it still very well could be
But, I look back now and think how I used to mock all these songs
That were being released, and who they're all about love
And how they've lost someone
I just thought they were corny, and some are, don't get me wrong
But, until something like that happens to you, that is how you think
But now, the view's all changed for me now that I can relate
So here we go, it's my turn
Verse 1:
All I want to do is go back to how it used-to-be
I don't get why it's changed between you-and-me
It used-to-be, you-and-me, but that's different-now
I still wonder why it is, when we first met it was different-wow
I've never seen someone so perfect in-my-eyes
I couldn't believe it, she had outstanding beauty and didn't-try
To be, what she wasn't, wasn't trying to be one of those slutty-girls
Just to get the attention of every-guy and give em' a lucky-whirl
Like everyone else was doing at that time, you were-different
You weren't like them walking the streets looking for-intimate
Relationships damn near every-week
But I could see through em' and knew they were tongue-in-cheek
I couldn't stand it, and then I found-you
You were like a light of hope, I was all about-you
I tried and tried to get on your good-side
I couldn't imagine later I would be saying good-bye
Chorus:
The After Effects that have occurred lately
Have been bringing me darkness, straight from Hades
I can't seem to get over what had been done
What was said and how it all unfolded one
Day, it was all perfect, all fine and dandy
I wonder how it could've change so drastically
I can't believe, at one point in time
It was all great and all fine
Hell, it's taking a long time cause it ain't over yet
It still irritates me to this day that I can't get over it
Verse 2:
I've been thinkin' long and hard about-this
And I realize that I could've changed the outcome, shout-less
In the relationship, but now I know I utterly-failed
I look back on the times and clumsily-wailed
Once it happened and I went straight back to my-rappin'
I needed to something to kick start me and kick start my-passion
And this was the perfect thing to run-to
When I needed something to calm me down, one-two
And it soon started to cool and started to-work
Bur every time I see your face it sends me into-a-murk
Of depression-and-sadness
Every damn time this-same-thing-happens
The last time that I shed a tear over-anyone
Was a long time ago when my father ran-to-one
Place and never seemed to return after-that
Man it hit me hard same as that after-math
Chorus:
The After Effects that have occurred lately
Have been bringing me darkness, straight from Hades
I can't seem to get over what had been done
What was said and how it all unfolded one
Day, it was all perfect, all fine and dandy
I wonder how it could've change so drastically
I can't believe, at one point in time
It was all great and all fine
Hell, it's taking a long time cause it ain't over yet
It still irritates me to this day that I can't get over it
Verse 3:
But now I know, it's all over now
My time was there, it was my time to wow
And I couldn't seem to get off my feet
Everything I ever did, just lead to defeat
I wanted to see something blossom out of this
Nothing seemed to I was hopin' for bliss
But what came out was just pity and diss
Nothin' came out for my luck or happiness
And it just seemed to hard and dark to swallow
I couldn't take the pain and hurt but it's hard to wallow
When I have other things that brighten the days
Maybe eventually I'll meet someone with a gaze
But until then I now realize the truth
What I did must have been the final proof
Of why it ended the way it did
I know it sucks now, but I'll find a way to live
Outro:
Alright, listen I promise I won't be making many of these songs
But you know, once it gets in your head
You sort of, get a passion to go out and write a song about it
Rap, Pop, Rock, anything, dont matter the music, anyone can relate
And not to mention I just wanted to get this off of my chest
For really feeling a certain way, it really irritates me
To feel like that you know, so I just had to get the pen and pad
This goes out to someone that used to mean the world to me
And i wish I could've changed the way, it all ended, peace
