NF, mgk - WHO I WAS (Slowed + Reverb)

My temper gets the best of me. NF:    / @nfrealmusic   mgk:    / @mgk   LYRICS: Ash and dust Everythin' I care about enough Burnin' up (yeah) Nothin' left of who I thought I was (alright, turn my, uh, vocals up) (And then just let it run) I was Uh, stuck in traffic, tryna find my way to a home that I've never known On a GPS with no address So, I'll follow my heart, but my heart is scattered Like my father's ashes in the back of the rental after I dropped his urn Probably a metaphor for everythin' I've learned Like how the only love I'll have is gonna crash and burn Or how the poorest I've felt was after the most I've earned The biggest lie told is that no one should be concerned There's gotta be another highway that don't lead to Hell A star to lead me through the darkest night like Christian Bale I hid from God for more than two decades of life And when I came back to the light, He didn't ask me if I'm Christian still Just opened up His arms and embraced me like I'm His Son Erasin' all the archetypes of what people like me become Since I was young, my personality split like serpent's tongue But all the poison in my body still ain't make me numb I lost a best friend and felt all that Cryin' on his open casket while I knelt on that I had a best man picked out for my weddin' But instead of gettin' married, I carried guilt and left all that A vagabond that broke a bond for Boca Raton Who all along regretted he never kept all that I left everythin' behind but this engagement ring and a frozen heart I'm standin' in the fire to melt all that, yeah Ash and dust Everythin' I care about enough (burn) Burnin' up Nothin' left of who I thought I was I was I, I, I was (yeah, burn) Lash out Need to take a breath and calm down Try to regulate, don't know how Wasn't taught that in my house Kids of my own, I step back Look at those smiles and feel sad Hope they don't wind up like dad Stuck in this loop like I am I've called you, never heard back After everythin' we've been through, the good and the bad You're 'bout to throw it all away and overreact Because I overreacted, karma I guess My temper gets the best of me A part of me that I wish I knew how to get rid of It's the issue I have, my MO Say I need you and I love you to death Then turn around and go and treat you like you nothin' but trash, I know I know I messed that part up, but I know, I know, I know, I know, I know Yeah, I know Sometimes, I lash out Need to take a breath and calm down Try to regulate, don't know how Wasn't taught that in my house Kids of my own, I step back Look at those smiles and feel sad Hope they don't wind up like dad Stuck in this loop like I am, I -
