Living Through Pictures

[Chorus]
Pictures I'm living through for now
Trying to remember all the good times
Our life was cutting through so loud
Memories are playing in my dull mind
I hate this part paper hearts
And I'll hold a piece of yours
Don't think I would just forget about it
Hoping that you won't forget about it

[Verse 1: Joey Burbs]
She told me tag her in the photo
So she can see me whenever she clicks the logo
They say goodbye as I’m boarding the plane
We promise to stay in touch but know it won’t be the same

See I haven’t seen my best friends since pursuing rap
The last time i saw my home was on google maps
— feels like this new start has brought the old to an end
I love where I’m at, but it's like I’ve lost where I’ve been

I try to keep relationships through SnapChat
But nowadays neither of us really snap back
Guess we can’t live off emojis and texts its
Funny how wifi makes me feel disconnected

Forget it….my pride is what I’m swallowing
So now I’m speaking like the Instagram's I’m following
No filter, my blood grows thinner
I’m cold even living in a place with no winter

She calls me so scared like she’s using up her life line
Begins to cry as we both staring at the night sky
We may be far but we’re looking at the same moon
Just gimme time - we’ll have new moments for this frame soon

[Chorus]
Pictures I'm living through for now
Trying to remember all the good times
Our life was cutting through so loud
Memories are playing in my dull mind
I hate this part paper hearts
And I'll hold a piece of yours
Don't think I would just forget about it
Hoping that you won't forget about it

[Verse 2: Joey Burbs]
I’ve missed 3 weddings and a graduation
Feel like I just need to get back to basics
Trading seconds for a stack of pages
Getting caught up from a lack of patience

I never could've seen myself in this position
It's everything I dreamed but it feels like something's missing
See i remember coming home from my visit
Telling my mom there's not a chance that i would go there forget it
And well

It's been a year since i went n made the Houston move
With the homies screaming "know I had to do it to 'em"
A new circle - gotta curve em if they ain't straight
'Cause these squares always getting twisted like a rubix cube

The best year of my life
Wouldn’t trade it for a moment through the tears and the strife
Can’t believe what I’ve been blessed with
Can’t believe what has been tested
And even through all the lessons
Man y’all still won’t get the message

I’m just saying
Sometimes its hard to be away
I see my brother getting buckets in his varsity game
And my other brothers number one in his high school class
Our lives are flying through fast
Just wish that I knew that

He says i wish you could've seen it, and it breaks my heart
It's like i built up this love, and now its taken apart
So now I’m living through pictures, scrolling through anything I might miss
Wishing I could do a little more than like it
