CPD - Yesterday

Yesterday, Yesterday
Seems like there’s been better days
Black and white just turns to gray
Praying to keep my family safe
Yesterday, Yesterday
Seems like there’s been better days
Black and white just turns to gray
Praying to keep my family safe
A new day with the sunrise
I can feel the light beams on the hood
Already feels like a sunset
Family departed from the love they knew
Nothings the same
As I’m moving try not to complain
I wish things were they way they used to be
I wish you saw me where we used to meet
But... we grew apart
And if you’re willing then I would restart
Reconciliation is a hidden art
But I wanna make it work if that’s where you are
Seems so far from the first place
But plants we grew our separate ways
Leaves so far on both sides
But same place where the root hides
Thinking about the better days
But like a jump shot, time fades away
Off the low block you can bank it in
Even be fancy with it, with a back-spin
I still can remember yesterday
Rain coming down at the graveside
And you were there right next to me
Brothers left on the same side
Yeah... I’m in a new day
Long gone removed from first grade
If I could forget I would but it’s impossible
I can’t rip the introduction to my chronicle
Feels like I’m following 2 Kings
But 1 God that’s the truth please
I just want my family back
That’s why I’m praying on my knees
Yesterday, oh yesterday
Yesterday, oh yesterday
I just want you to come back home
Be with the family where you belong
I never wanted you to leave in the first place
If you came up to my door, I would swing open the gate
You didn’t have to go but you ran away
But I know that you run when you’re afraid
One day you’ll see that it’s a mistake
But until that day I’ll wait for embrace
Yesterday we had better days
Back when we were innocent
We use to be so different
Now there’s creative dissonance
A finish to the innocence that never lasted infinite
Increasing by the increment but loosing all the lyricist
Witnessing the littlest, changes we responded with
Implementing immanent while looking for a stimulant
On a journey feeling so prodigal
But you’re lost on the play like an audible
But family’s not dissolvable
And I know that you just wanna come back home
Yesterday seems so far away
But my love for you is home today
And it’s always there never betrayed
Celebrating growth in your estate
And I just want you to be great
Everyday I feel like I pray for you
I know you can do big things
Just need to get a clear view
I just miss the better days
Before you left for another way
Back when you still talked to God
But I guess that was just yesterday
Yesterday, oh yesterday
Yesterday, oh yesterday
Yesterday, Yesterday,
Seems like there’s been better days
Black and white just turns to gray
Praying to keep my family safe
Yesterday, Yesterday
Seems like there’s been better days
Black and white just turns to gray
Praying to keep my family safe
Yesterday, oh yesterday
Yesterday, oh yesterday
