Till my legs give out, cant shut my mouth.
Till the smoke clears out and my high burn out
Ima rip this shit till my bone collapse.


As I Walk By

[Verse 1]


I thought I saw you yesterday.

Out the corner of my eye.

The idea landed then flew.

As I looked and realized,

That it wasn’t you,

But that's no surprise.

The feelings are gone now,

But When i think i see you they rise.

And after it’s gone,

They drop back down to size.

Kinda like my heart,

When someone mentions you.

That's when the feelings start,

And there’s nothing i can do.

I’ve forgotten the bad feelings,

I had for a while.

Although still into weed dealings,

Alone I can finally smile.

I finally have forgotten the pain,

I'm happy now.

But when someone mentions your name,

Weird reactions come out.

I take a deep breath,

As i wonder how.

Maybe deep inside,

I miss you a bit.

And the feelings just hide,

Till you pass and it’s relit.

Then the feeling lifts and flys,

And I’m no longer hit.

Maybe missing you,

Throws my mind in a fit.

I feel mostly normal,

But when you pass I have to admit,

These feelings can’t be pinned.

And as you walk by,

I feel it within.







[Chorus]





Cause I thought I saw you,

Walking right by.

Inside I knew it wasn’t,

But my soul didn’t realize.

Even if it was,

I wouldn’t say hi.

Wouldn’t say *** to you,

I’m not that kinda guy.

It’s not like I feel bad,

It’s not like i cry.

But i get this feeling,

And i don’t know why.

I wait till it passes,

Then let out a sigh.

Put you back in the past,

We’ve already said our goodbyes.

Go back to being happy,

Let the feeling die.

But yet I still think about it,

As i walk by.







[Secondary Chorus]





Don’t get me wrong,

It’s not like it wrecks me.

But i do get a feeling.

And it does affect me.

For that short few seconds,

Its like someone hexed me.

I’ll get over this feeling,

If my heart lets me.







[Verse 2]







The bad feelings now are gone,

And no longer do.

I sing that old depressed song.

And I’m happy again.

After so long.

But then I see you and it hits,

Like the smoke from a bong.

And the realization,

Explodes like a bomb.

I guess you’ll always be here,

Somewhere inside.

And when your name i hear,

My thoughts will go for a ride.

Plenty of time to get the feeling out.

Till then time I will bide.

Whenever i think you pass,

It blows my mind open-wide.

Every feeling that goes by,

One never slides.

That even though I don't want you,

You make my heart full.

And I’ll always remember you,

Every memory in whole.

Tattooed on my heart,

Burned in like firery coal.

They’re in there somewhere,

They’re just laying low.

And as you walk by,

I’ll let the memories flow.








[Chorus]





Cause I thought I saw you,

Walking right by.

Inside I knew it wasn’t,.

But my soul didn’t realize.

Even if it was,

I wouldn’t say hi.

Wouldn’t say **** to you,

I’m not that kinda guy.

It’s not like I feel bad,

It’s not like i cry.

But i get this feeling,

And i don’t know why.

I wait till it passes,

Then let out a sigh.

Put you back in the past,

We’ve already said our goodbyes.

Go back to being happy.

Let the feeling die.

But yet I still think about it,

As i walk by.





[Secondary Chorus]





Don’t get me wrong,

It’s not like it wrecks me.

But i do get a feeling,

And it does affect me.

For that short few seconds,

Its like someone hexed me.

I’ll get over this feeling,

If my heart lets me.








[Chorus Repeated]





Cause I thought I saw you,

Walking right by.

Inside I knew it wasn’t,

But my soul didn’t realize.

Even if it was,

I wouldn’t say hi.

Wouldn’t say **** to you,

I’m not that kinda guy.

It’s not like I feel bad.

It’s not like i cry.

But i get this feeling,

And i don’t know why.

I wait till it passes,

Then let out a sigh.

Put you back in the past,

We’ve already said our goodbyes.

Go back to being happy,

Let the feeling die.

But yet I still think about it,

As i walk by.
