Il testo della It's been a while

( intro x2 )
It's been a while since,
It's been a while since,
It's been a while since y'all heard my voice.

( verse 1 )
It's been a while since i've been on a track,
That's because my soul became solely abstract,
I remained in my own darness while sadly intact,
I've been gone too long, but now i'm finally back,
It's been a while since someone wiped my tears,
I refuse to break down with these futile fears,
With these watery eyes my vision's still clear,
Even if i fall down without any help near,
It's been a while since the last time i fell in love,
A shattered broken heart is plainly plentiful enough,
My heart no longer bleeds, i've bled all my blood,
And the love i could give has painly drowned in the flood.
It's been a while since my last thoughts of suicide,
'cause i finally found the reason for living my life,
I walk forward slowly with the future in sight,
Alive outside, but soulless inside.

( chorus x2 )
Though time has passed by through the sights of our eyes,
We must live every day without a certain demise,
Put all the sadness, pain and struggle aside,
And try to find the bright sunshine in your life.

( verse 2 )
It's been a while since i've been truly blessed,
Why would i anyway with numerous pains in my chest?
Remember these words, man: life is a quest,
We're all in search of this one thing that is the best,
It's been a while since i knew and had a best friend,
Could this finally be the end of a lonely man?
Anxiety's the common state i trend and tend to apprehend,
And insomnia keeps me wide awake to a late extent,
It's been a while since i had a reason to smile,
There's nothing else left to do that's worth my while,
If you take my 9's and walked a few couple miles,
You would understand why i'm widely versatile,
It's been a while since the last time i felt good,
Disappear forever? shit, i don't know how i would,
Fuck, i gotta make sure and wonder if i really should,
So many various feelings; i'm misunderstood.

( chorus x2 )
Though time has passed by through the sights of our eyes,
We must live every day without a certain demise,
Put all the sadness, pain and struggle aside,
And try to find the bright sunshine in your life.

( verse 3 )
It's been a while since i lost my only soul,
And the stroll has been done on a lonely road,
As long as i'm alone and grown, i know i'm in control,
Of the outcome of things that will one day unfold,
It's been a while since i flew and felt really high,
And i broke every bone as i fell from the sky,
Distinguished in anguish, all i do is sigh,
And when i meet my sorrows, i have the urge to cry,
It's been a while since my past visit in hell,
I was painfully burnt the last time i fell,
As i rose from the ashes, i dwell and swell
Because i know i'm free but stuck life's jail cell,
It's been a while since i've asked a question,
I'll repress and regress in my own depression,
I'm oppressed and agressed in my own obsession,
My confessions are revealed through my expressions.

( chorus x4 )
Though time has passed by through the sights of our eyes,
We must live every day without a certain demise,
Put all the sadness, pain and struggle aside,
And try to find the bright sunshine in your life.
