The Picture

Hook: Nina Kanda & Marchitect
I want to take your picture down (SoulChef)
I guess that I'm afraid (49ers)
That if I take your picture down (Nina Kanda)
The memories will fade (let's go)

Verse 1: Marchitect
A photo is worth a 1,000 words
But my heart hurts like I done pinched a 1,000 nerves
Couldn't see around the curve and now the picture in the frame
Is like the Four Tops mane, same song but the meaning ain't the same
Glass got a chip in it, cover got a rip in it
Now I'm flying over your city I just be skipping it
Faded memories that stand still for an eternity
Emergency surgery that is almost how it's hurting me
Most certainly these days become weeks
The weeks become months the months become years
Another lap around the sun is what I'm dealing with here
365 days passing in the rear
View mirror you're the best thing that had ever record
In my life, up to the point of all the strife
I know it spread across the net but don't believe the hype

Hook: Nina Kanda
I want to take your picture down
I guess that I'm afraid
That if I take your picture down
The memories will fade

Verse 2: Jas Mace
In that picture on your wall we were smiling
But that only masks the moment right before cuz we were whylin'
A stranger wouldn't know that and your friends couldn't tell (nah)
Seconds before the flash you told me go to hell (go to hell)
But there were cheesin' like it's all cream and peaches
Thinking we'd forget then look back like we weren't faking
Funky attitude was gone for one second (only one)
Cuz two ticks later you were right back stressing (come on)
I guess it doesn't matter the before and after (nah)
So long as we captured a moment of supposed laughter
What's the point of fronting when you're in front of lens
Obliged to wear a disguise for family and friends (oh I see)
You and I know the truth, yeah it used to be sincere
Those days are long gone and I ain't seen them in years
For real, this time I ain't going through the maze
Let me take that picture and hope the memory fades, peace

Hook: Nina Kanda
I want to take your picture down
I guess that I'm afraid
That if I take your picture down
The memories will fade
