Bilal Abbey & Yorel Tifsim - Tempered Glass

We covered ourselves in pain
Thinking it would give us strength
But we just made our own damn chains
Out of strange
Tempered glass
We calling forth a legion
Of emotions with a grievance
Cuz just kept feeding em
A bunch of different reasons
To remain in the dark on some patience shit
Now they like naw we taking part in this relationship
Got to the point we didn’t talk in our relationship
Even to the point we didn’t fuck in our relationship
Our interactions were controlled by assumptions
Me assuming you assuming
A bunch of pain consumptions
Swallowed it all down and thought we wouldn't shit it out
How foolish was we then
How foolish are we now
I know that I've grown I'm not the same Bilal
You living on ya own you not the same child
That was running from your past
Holding on to everything and tryna make it last
We learned to let go
But at the same time had to let go of us
This one ain't about love
It's more about trust
Tempered glass
This ain’t what you wanted no
And this ain’t what I wanted no
So how we let the whole thing go
Tempered glass
We covered ourselves in pain
Thinking it would give us strength
But we just made our own damn chains
Out of strange
Tempered glass
Tempered glass is treated to be resilient
We use it for our phones and the idea is brilliant
The only thing is tempered glass isn't living
Humans do the same but the difference is chilling
Humans temper ourselves by going through things
And concealing the residual feeling that's
Keeping us from healing
It's like the more we bleed the more we feel strong
That idea is wrong
That’s why I wrote this song
I didn't myself to see what I need for me
She didn't trust her self to see what she needed for she
So how could we
Trust we
Thinking it would last
All the while relying on this tempered glass
Tempered glass protects from the outside
This came from within
Tempered glass never had a chance to defend
Going against yourself is the only sin
Tempered glass
This ain’t what you wanted no
And this ain’t what I wanted no
So how we let the whole thing go
Tempered glass
We covered ourselves in pain
Thinking it would give us strength
But we just made our own damn chains
Out of strange
Tempered glass
