Euphemistic - Took It for Granted (feat. 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 f*ck 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
