Emotions

Pills and potions instrumental by Nicki Minaj

Mixed emotions 
They feel like the ocean 
The waves  come and I run from them 
(Repeat 1x)
I still run I still run I still run 
I still run
(Repeat 1x)

These feelings that I keep having 
Be having me feeling like I'm dragging 
I be trying to put the past behind 
Pat my self on the back I'm doing just fine 
Life sometimes feel like a nursery rhyme 
I can still hear it time after time 
Then I remember this voice in my head 
That said 
There is more to you than what people see 
And have you heard of jealousy 
They get bent out of shape for me being me 
But I am one of a kind 
Will forever be on someone mind 

Mixed emotions 
They feel like the ocean 
The waves  come and I run from them 
(Repeat 1x)
I still run I still run I still run 
I still run
(Repeat 1x)

People in life 
Can be so judgemental
Do the math
See the differential
Love to see you down 
Hate to see you up 
Comfortability
Will get you stuck
Got to dig your way out 
Out the mud we Know what that's about
We cut from different cloths 
We can always be a boss 
But it come with determination 
No matter what you facing
There will be some fakes 
That will clap 
And in reality treat you like crap 
So what do we do 
Take the lense see the view 
Realize the real from the fake 
Gourmet meals on my plate 
Filet mignon and the steak 
Come here lets share 
Real ones will always be there 

Mixed emotions 
They feel like the ocean 
The waves  come and I run from them 
(Repeat 1x)
I still run I still run I still run 
I still run
(Repeat 1x)

Hook 
Emotions running through me 
No longer care 
How people view me 
And I start to run 
Touch the moon and the sun 
I still run I still run I still run 
I still run
(Repeat 1x)

Unseeking Seeker February 8, 2022 at 8:46 PM Great song! Yesterday I chanced to see a you tube video said to be channelled by Jesus, wherein we are asked to discern difference between unconditional love and flickering emotion ~ just saying
