Past, Present, Future

[Intro: K-Rino] Sometimes you look forward and backwards [Verse 1: K-Rino] I meditated at home alone in an introspective zone When my conscious mind takes on a deep reflective tone As I laid afraid and replayed mistakes that I've made Depression covered me with his dark shade and cut like a blade Should I seek advice from somebody that knows me the most? Just as I asked a familiar figure slowly approached I don't believe in paranormal beings or all-seeing ghosts But everything he told me and everything he showed me was close I didn't understand his motives or his purpose with me My assessment was he could be 22 or 23 As my visual started burgeoning and emerging I see That this person indeed was just a younger version of me He said he had words that were of the most urgent degree Apologized for things that he had caused to occur mentally He knew decisions that he had made led to my discouragement, G Said at the time he couldn't see where all of the turbulence be Said history never produced a more deserving MC That had received less and had packed a greater burden than me "If I could merge ya knowledge now with ya fire from '93 Just imagine how dangerous and disturbing it might be" He showed me bad moments in my life that could've been nice Times I would've won, but I went left when I should've went right But once you done it, well it's over, that's a permanent rule Problems I could've missed, had I made an alternative move He reminded me well that I sat on a throne with a veil Now I'm lonely as hell, broken down and only a shell Of my former self and that's something I hated to say Just when I asked if I could make it right he faded away [Chorus 2: K-Rino] Three levels of my existence will clash When my present meets my future and my past How long will my rationale last? When my present meets my future and my past [Break: K-Rino] Man, what just happened to me? I must've blacked out or something man I feel like, I feel like I'm in another dimension man What's really going on? [Verse 2: K-Rino] The psychological effects of pain I failed to withstand To recover from it the average man seldomly can Someone tell me the plan, I looked and saw an elderly man And he began to place me under a deep spell with his hand I couldn't believe that he was contrived to deceive me in lie He was feeble and shy and much older than the previous guy I relaxed like I was high, relief I was breathing aside He said that he would speak and that I would have no need to reply He told me of things that I was yearning in my past was a tree of learning Said my future wasn't planned and that nothing was predetermined Said don't focus on rejection and personal imperfections Showed me sections of my life I should take in different directions I couldn't see his face at all, only a silhouette flaming Said there would be no deal in explaining, until I became him "What you see in front of you is the same form I remain in It's up to you to add to the frame of what you'll be gaining If you devote your ethereal hope and spiritual growth Look in the mirror close and apply, not just hear what I spoke Don't think current obstacles last, there's no impossible task You could profit with cash, the future has optional paths I can't reveal every dimension, I'm just showing you some I warn you now about the pitfalls so you'll know when they come First start your divorce, weak hearted thoughts of remorse I can't divulge too much there's a chance you'll alter the course This warning is sound, right now you got thorns in your crown But I'm a image of potential reform, born to astound I see you speculating blatantly, no need to mistake me Yeah I'm you 20 years from now, but what will you make me?" [Chorus x2: K-Rino] Three levels of my existence will clash When my present meets my future and my past How long will my rationale last When my present meets my future and my past?
