about

Feels is actually about the feelings i had once i returned back from Boston. My interactions with friends and family members. I wanted things to be a certain way but it wasn't. It opened my eyes and i realized nothing will ever be the same again.

This track is special to me not only because of the beat, but because i wrote the song without any swears. It was also written on December 1, 2017 in one sitting.

lyrics

people think they mean more to me than they actually do, do y’all think about me? because i don’t think you do.. you like the thought of being closer than we actually are.. and when you think about it, that gap is pretty far. overtime i think most people just grow apart, go their separate ways.. and go follow their heart. i made a mistake going back, thinking it’ll be the same. I’m more disappointed in my self, not thinking it’ll change. i’m feeling strange trying to hold a conversation. we aint got nothing in common, i think its confirmation. we both were trying to holding on to the past. suppose to be forever, but forever never last. I was drowning in a glass, trying to mask the anxiety.. i couldn’t look you in the face, when you fake smile at me. that’s why i was just sitting there quietly, i’ll tell you how i feel, but i’ll talk to you in privacy.

yeah.. all this awkward conversations and, ya know... people change, things change.. i've changed, so nothing personal... just got to move on... anyways so...

people only miss you when you’re gone, you never cross their mind, when they got something going on. Their disappointed in me, and I could careless... I’ve always went through with no fear being fearless.. never fearful, miss me with an earful, and you don’t really care, so why should I be careful? Why should I be cheerful? And Why have you in company? Where were you when I need help, and lately, what have you done for me? You know, really my minds blown, no one ever visit me when i was in a different time zone. excuse me, except my little brother. But that's blood, and blood is different from all the others. That's how I feel, and even family, Is being funny.. "It's hi, how you doing, and can I borrow some money?.." This is why I'm so distance, and when they look at me, they can tell that things are different.

Yeah!
