I haven't written a song in a long time...but what everything going on my life right now I felt like writing!
Let me know what y'all think! (oh Yeah, the chorus is from the Lupe Fiasco song "The Instrumental")

Stars & Scars
Chorus x 2
Now you can’t tell me just who you are
You buying them clothes just to hide those scars
You built that roof just to hide those stars
Now you can’t take it back to the start
Verse 1
A million question are bouncing through me mind
And the answers are locked up, really hard to find
Lesson learned from the mistakes I’ve made
Don’t ever EVER loose your faith
I’m a sucker for love with no backbone
A home is just a house when the love is gone
I’m counting my blessings and learning my lessons
While we fade away like intersections
We wane be lovers but don’t know what romance is
Ready for the long run but don’t know what the plan is
Can this…really be going on
Or am I…just making it up in this song
When lips come together they do one thing
Separate cause it would only be a one night fling
My eyes are red and my cheeks feel wet
Cause you like a metaphor…you hard to get
Chorus x 2
Now you can’t tell me just who you are
You buying them clothes just to hide those scars
You built that roof just to hide those stars
Now you can’t take it back to the start
Verse 2
You’re my sunlight in the middle of the night
And my moonlight in the broad day light…
You just don’t make sense!
And I’m feeling a little les confident
I know I’m loosing my strength
Hit my head against the wall, it’s a dead end
And I wane be more than just a friend
The weakness of the heart is what keeps us apart
That’s why you can’t take it back to the start
I laugh and I cry, live and I die
While this life is passing me by
I’m breaking the rules and paying my dues
Making my moves, try walking a day in my shoes
I’m covered with sadness and blackness
Cause life doesn’t look too attractive
The matter of fact is, I’m affected
By my love you rejected, neglected
So I’m taking this feeling and eject it
Cause I tried but failed to perfect it
Chorus x 2
Now you can’t tell me just who you are
You buying them clothes just to hide those scars
You built that roof just to hide those stars
Now you can’t take it back to the start
