And I remember the first time
I laid my eyes upon you, it was so sublime
You had a thought-provoking mind,
but did you notice mine?
Hell no; you figured since I rapped
that I rolled around town with my finger on the trigger of a gat
now can you picture that? me selling crack?
bumpin' Tom Waits, trying to diet and lose my belly-fat
I said "Hello" and you said "Hello Mac"
but I fell in love when I realized you'd been to Hell and back
and still walk around with so much poise
you could retreat with self pity
but instead u made the choice
to put the tears on hold, kneel down and grab a shield
grab a sword and take a march through the battlefield.
You're the only girl that I've been with that when i'm without,
it's like I missed out on friendship.
I used to be charming
now I'm just a sharp sting
it's like you're looking for a fingerprint on harp strings

If I could take 'em all back, done.
I would take 'em all back but one,
I would take 'em all past the sun,
and leave 'em like that,
and cover my tracks so they could never make it back to find me.

You know?

You know.

And I remember the first time
I realized that sometimes
that you and I shouldn't occupy the same confines

for too much time
or we share disaster,
cuz we share the energy to argue over shit that doesn't matter,
and nothing really matters
but everything, every cliche, ever set of wings.
I let you pull the weight, like a rickshaw, it's rude
trying to trudge through the stream of my impulsive moods
see, you and I
we've fallen down a pitfall or two
and I got the thick skull to prove
but I am rarely honest,
cuz every time we discuss this topic
my guard is up and every word we exchange is toxic
I never say "you're right" to your face,
but I'mma say "you're right" in this song
You're right and I'm wrong
In fact, as I'm writing this song
I realize I'm sitting here alone tonight and you're gone
so I say

If I could take 'em all back, done.
I would take 'em all back but one,
I would take 'em all past the sun,
and leave 'em like that,
and cover my tracks so they could never make it back to find me.

If I could take 'em all back, true.
I would take 'em all back but you,
I would take 'em all past the moon,
and leave 'em like that,
and cover my tracks so never put 'em in a rap,
like I did you.

You know.
