Testo Shawshank Redemption - Speech Debelle

Testo della canzone Shawshank Redemption (Speech Debelle), tratta dall'album Freedom of Speech

Yeah

For my boogaloo

Aye

I gave up

I gave up

You notice you're so focused

On the things they don't do or don't do for you

You said they have not grown, not like you

But forgetting that you still got growing to do too

And it's a simple fact

You're supposed to have a future together so you work with that

I said you wasn't focused

But now look at your focus

Somebody else seeing progress cause they had patience

I was tired of waiting

But you weren't tired of waiting

Cause you put up with me

I should've put up with you too

Now I'm sitting here saying how much I care for you

Sitting here sipping on something saying I'm missing you

And all the while you was waiting

Full of frustration

Holding you at arms length for ages

I'm kinda ashamed to say it

Hey, I gotta live with that

I never called

You were my only

Wounds have all now

I'm lonely

I gave up sure for unsure

Never do that

I gave up sure for unsure

Never do that

But I was a fool

For losing it slowly

Letting you walk away from me

I gave up sure for unsure

Never do that

I gave up sure for unsure

Never do that

Something had to give

You had to live

So you letting go was really the best thing

You did it for yourself, I can see that

Yes, thinking bout my own selfishness

Less would've been better for us

I bought nothing but fuss

We debated about where we're taking this love

I lied to you

Now I cry for you

Cause my pride told me that I wanted more than you

But wanting wanting can't get and getting getting I want it

Foundation wasn't strong that's why I fell off it

The promise I made to you wasn't honest

Too smart for myself so I lost the profits of you

Things that I do make me question my sanity

Chasing the ones that will never be right for me

I'm kinda ashamed to say it

Hey, I gotta live with that

I never called

You were my only

Wounds have all now

I'm lonely

I gave up sure for unsure

Never do that

I gave up sure for unsure

Never do that

But I was a fool

For losing it slowly

Letting you walk away from me

I gave up sure for unsure

Never do that

I gave up sure for unsure

Never do that

I never called

You were my only

Wounds have all now

I'm lonely

I gave up sure for unsure

Never do that

I gave up sure for unsure

Never do that

But I was a fool

For losing it slowly

Letting you walk away from me

I gave up sure for unsure

Never do that

I gave up sure for unsure

Never do that

My ego's amazing

Always gets me in situations

Like this cause I'm so fly

So I let you walk by

I wasn't keen on staying

Now I ended up with Nathan

And Nathan he gives me nothing

I get nothing from Nathan

I gave up

I gave up

I gave up sure for unsure

I gave up sure for unsure

I gave up sure for unsure

I gave up sure for unsure
