AKNOWLEDGE lyrics : "Shattered Promises"

[Chorus]:
I never keep a promise that I make for myself,
And even when I change, it never really helps,

Need someone to blame but there's nobody else,
I'm locked within my soul in a battle with myself,


[Verse 1]:
This world is too vicious like I'm facing two (*##$es,
They manipulate my words like I spoke in two pitches,

The pictures of their visions get framed in our decisions,
Make up who we are but I ain't pamper up and glisten,
Now listen, I'm changing up positions,

Poetic, metaphoric, to effortless, historic,
I came in indirect but later on I stored it,
Kept it hidden too long now my words are getting shortened,

Feeling less important but even more distorted,
My glass already full from emotions imported,
Aborted the one mission before I even started,

Yet I keep it one hundred but I'm feeling halfhearted,
Now I laugh on it, I pass on it,
Life it was locked with a pass code on it,

Unlock the secrets, to vision the deepness,
Found out my weakness was just a broken promise,
Now,


[Chorus]:
I never keep the promise I make for myself,

And even when I change it never really helps,
Need someone to blame but there's nobody else,
I'm locked within my soul in a battle with myself,


[Verse 2]:
Time is after me? Well I'm running out of patience,

And discovering myself got me waiting like a patient,
Close to falling down with my face upon the pavement,
I work around the clock like I'm hiding from its faces,

And for what though, afraid of my reflection?
I look into the mirror just to face my imitation,
Without an invitation, this pen I'm embracing,

Through the doors that I race in say poetic restoration,
Has my mind elevated, my mind has created,
Ever changing rhymes schemes with flows like ventilation,

I ventilate the stress, to fake promises,
I held my consciousness with a bit of common sense,
The change is coming quick, like a virgin twenty secs,

I'll be switching lanes to a different intersect,
Laying down my rhymes as I build my confidence,
Will always keep it true, to you I promise this,


[Chorus]:
I never keep the promise I make for myself,

And even when I change it never really helps,
Need someone to blame but there's nobody else,
I'm locked within my soul in a battle with myself,
