[00:27.599]The future is not your past
[00:30.102]I've tried to write this rhyme a million times
[00:33.418]Or maybe I'm just killin' time
[00:35.332]I'm blinded by what I had built in my mind
[00:38.202]I'm cryin' like I spilled the milk and the wine
[00:40.650]Everything's on fire, still, I'm tryin' to pretend I'm feelin' fine
[00:44.916]And I've always been observant
[00:46.583]Curiosity tryin' to learn what's behind the curtains
[00:49.450]And I'm certain insecurity's the perfect encouragement
[00:52.700]Even brain surgeons have a limited purpose
[00:55.135]I saw the writing on the wall when it was written in cursive
[00:58.251]Look, I can't imagine I could spell it any clearer
[01:01.202]If I bluntly tried to tell you how we got from there to here
[01:04.034]Its atmosphere and I'm surprised that we survived another year
[01:06.890]To speak through the speakers it keeps creepin' nearer
[01:10.134]To the day I disappear to the other side of that mirror
[01:13.350]I guess my voice is all that I got to offer
[01:15.716]So you gotta make a choice to avoid your own obstacles
[01:19.118]Probably feels powerful, huh?
[01:20.939]You can poison all the water on this planet
[01:23.241]But you can't put sand in the hourglass
[01:26.150]Your future is not your past
[01:34.759]But your future is not your past
[01:37.268]You can try to follow the path, or you can draw your own map
[01:40.683]But your future is not your past
[01:49.288]But your future is not your past
[01:52.148]How could it all collapse if it was built to last?
[01:55.416]Your future is not your past
[01:57.267]I always thought I was an ugly child
[01:59.516]I still remember the struggle of tryin' to love my smile
[02:02.534]Without a promise to my pocket, just the words I compiled
[02:05.667]And whatever else they got up in my personal file
[02:08.702]Just show me how it works while I work to make it worth my while
[02:12.016]I'm not embarrassed to admit when I considered myself
[02:14.835]A supporting character, I barely cared about the script
[02:17.918]And now my kids got me starin' at my fridge
[02:20.184]Like I better go out and produce a bag of asparagus
[02:23.300]Don't wanna be a failure as a parent again
[02:26.351]Don't nobody wanna die broke and in debt
[02:28.935]Gotta fly towards the sun, but stay close to the nest
[02:32.016]And I ain't sayin' nothin', but I hope it connects
[02:34.767]And it doesn't really matter whether or not you ever open the text
[02:38.451]No stress, just growth and progress
[02:40.483]And I imagine that I'm way far past my halfway
[02:44.735]This graveyard is like an ashtray
[02:47.302]We generate mistakes until the final escape
[02:49.968]I'm tryin' to make footprints in the sand of this hourglass
[02:53.918]Your future is not your past
[03:02.471]But your future is not your past
[03:04.935]We try to learn how to adapt, we want tomorrow intact
[03:08.584]Your future is not your past
[03:17.051]But your future is not your past
[03:19.218]Until I finally vanish into the vast, I wrote my own raps
[03:23.167]And my future was not my past
[03:32.128]Your future was not my past
