Took It for Granted ft. Ryan Rev Lyrics

My dad used to drink a lot, sorry I’m a musician who shares it without permission

Instantly I remember seeing a shrink a lot, more than what was intended

And damn man that shit’s expensive I wonder what would have happened if I never went

I’d still be here but I’d be different with my penmanship

Dad no longer drinks but now we do not speak and haven’t seen him since 2015

Sometimes I wonder how he’s been, least he’s still somewhere there

Or maybe he isn’t, how can I tell someone’s fine if they never reach out or visit

But that’s a two way, road, it’s my fault too I never did it

And that’s a hard pill to swallow took me some thought to admit it

I praise my own intuition maybe it’s hereditary

Mom gave me the will to survive dad taught me how to be daring

Comparing opposites alike, that compliment each others vibes

Can harmonize even for broken moments and birth indigo light

Sometimes it feels like I’m gone, sometimes it feels like I’m stranded

It feels like I’m on, a whole different planet, and I didn’t plan it

I’m so far from home, I took it for granted, it feels like I’m gone

It feels like I'm stranded, it feels like I'm on, a whole different planet

And I didn't plan it, I'm so far from home, I took it for granted

It feels like I'm gone, it feels like I'm

Making my mistakes to learn a lesson maybe

Is that what you did as a dad when I was just a baby

See I ain’t sad I appreciate all the memories had

But I work for better days I’m patiently waiting

Grind until the light of day music my occupation

Working hard so fuck vacations no studio vacant

Shade ain’t never in my place only got good vibrations

Purple haze rolled up for days to keep the relaxation

I been baking I been painting a scene I been facing

Palm Pact ready to make it, I been patiently waiting

Hope my mother and father, even though they departed

Don’t think I blame ‘em both, there’s no blame to be honest

That’s just the way it goes, can’t keep every promise

Life has some shit it throws and all we can do is dodge it don’t block it

It happens to fast to process faster than bullets or comets

And for all those blessings had count ‘em before they tarnish, fade

Sometimes it feels like I’m gone, sometimes it feels like I’m stranded

It feels like I’m on, a whole different planet, and I didn’t plan it

I’m so far from home, I took it for granted, it feels like I’m gone

It feels like I'm stranded, it feels like I'm on, a whole different planet

And I didn't plan it, I'm so far from home, I took it for granted

It feels like I'm gone, it feels like

Sometimes life to me is just a vice

Reminding me of times that which I hide from outside

Apathy reminds me of atrophy further down the line

Got no way to rewind just gotta change my state of mind

So, how does one express these thoughts had in excess

Can’t sleep I’ve been restless relieved I’m not dead yet

If I wanted peace of mind I’ll probably have to find an over the counter

Preventing these moments that which I stay awake until the light of day

I’m gonna just have to accept it, man I had family die

Cousins and brothers alike, I feel deprived of air I’m buried alive

See I have reason believing that luck is just fate in disguise

Everything written in time there’s a reason for all of it maybe when the time is mine

I left enough on the mic telling stories of life to remind you that everything’s fine, aye

I know that everything’s fine, aye

Put what you want to your mind, aye

Life is a journey that’s full of surprises perspective might make it more bright, aye

I know that everything’s fine, aye

Put what you want to your mind, aye

Life is a journey that’s full of surprises perspective might make it more bright

Sometimes it feels like I’m gone, sometimes it feels like I’m stranded

It feels like I’m on, a whole different planet, and I didn’t plan it

I’m so far from home, I took it for granted, it feels like I’m gone

It feels like I'm stranded, it feels like I'm on, a whole different planet

And I didn't plan it, I'm so far from home, I took it for granted

It feels like I'm gone, it feels like I'm stranded, gone

Feels like I'm on a whole, different planet, and I didn't plan it

I'm so far from home, I took it for granted, I took it for granted
