Different

I've been in a special place since things fell apart and I'm cool with it
Been making music, learning how to love myself more and accept that I am who I am

Differences are something we all come with

A re-occurring problem I had with my ex was that we always pointed out our differences and while at first it was a cute thing to notice, it soon developed into a weapon that we both used against each other.

(From my perspective) she liked order and her guys in a suit, dressed fairly well.

I liked t shirts and chill clothes. I come from chaos and have learned to live in it.

She didn't get my fascination with video games, superheros, and Converses.

I didn't get weaves, haircare, and some other things she liked.

We taught each other things, which I must admit was the best part about that,

but alas,

we let our differences shake us.


I'm learning how to break down the rhythm in instrumentals and use them in conjunction with my lyric choices.
I'm learning how to come to terms with the person I've formed out to be.
One thing I used to say to her that I know hurt her feelings was,
"You don't make me feel like it's okay to be me."

I meant that shit. I shouldn't have said it though.
Cause she didn't mean to do that.
I did that to myself.


Differences keep us interesting. Learn to love them.
