james chelliah - the past is not for living in lyrics
![](https://grammarquiz.net/globalbanner.png)
[chorus: james ch_lliah]
“we don’t have to be who we’ve been”
it’s so f_cking easy to say the thing, and do nothing
like most things
“we don’t have to be who we’ve been”
it’s so f_cking easy to say the thing, and do nothing
like most things
[verse 1: james ch_lliah]
“we don’t have to be who we’ve been”
it’s so f_cking easy to say the thing
spent half of my twenties in bed
nursing my nihilism
pleading that sanity let go of what little was left
cursed my family tree
the roots held no hereditary disease
we pass that sh_t down through speech
divine wisdom
so close to a total annihilation of self
this passage through the terriblest times are rarely unfelt
it’s scathing how pain can scale
one day, you’re ok
the next day, you were made to fail
and not for no reason
the reason is inexplicable, so you dig deep
my therapist says ‘everything is fixable in, like, a lifetime.’
grand, that’s a timeline
i’ll stick to that sh_t, no matter how unrealistic
how strange the world can look
staring at its heart with logistics
i think it’s just fine, the way it is, for now
[chorus: james ch_lliah & gannat]
“we don’t have to be who we’ve been” (we don’t have to be)
it’s so f_cking easy to say the thing, and do nothing (we don’t have to live)
like most things (like most things)
“we don’t have to be who we’ve been” (we don’t have to be)
it’s so f_cking easy to say the thing, and do nothing (we don’t have to live)
like most things (like most things)
[post_chorus: léa & gannat]
we don’t have to be
we don’t have to live (we don’t have to live)
like most things (like most things)
we don’t have to be
we don’t have to live (have to live)
like most things (like most things)
[verse 2: james ch_lliah]
“live in the now, live in the now, live in the now”
i know, you told me
i’m trying to cauterise wounds that stayed warm since ’89
don’t rush me
eventually i can get close to clean
how can you fix the core without causing some consternation?
how can you get to clean without cleansing what’s interesting?
sounds dull
if i am the sum of the me of old
i’m bound to carry my debt to the grave and lie low
scr_pe another layer of skin from my past, test it
_n_lyse it over and over again, stress it
if it says i’m destined for f_ckery, then, great
cause it means that i’m living for the future
and not the rest of this
