about

a song about mortality, hopelessness and emptiness after a loss.

lyrics

[]verse 1]
i tried my best to be the man you wanted, I tried my best to be the son wish you’d gotten
But it seems that I’m forgotten
Can’t you see I’m hurting lately? Momma you made me but it feels I’m not your baby
You’d think I’m crazy, these thoughts crashing in they’ve tamed me
Beasts surround me on the daily they got me craving for a love i won’t be attaining
My stomach screaming, haven’t eaten in weeks my body’s screeching
I have a bad feeling I won’t be seeing 25
When I was ten I seen a man get lit up in front of his child
Turned me bitter, made brash decisions my brain was quicker,
up in my world where all we know is pull a trigger…

[verse 2]
To the girl I love, I apologize for my misdeeds
I was trapped tween the sheets - I just wanted to be free
I know my conscience is constantly a convict turn my back on you whenever there’s a conflict
Learn from my mistakes, but I was always the problem.
Olly, you was the only who could solve them. Just being honest
A year later, tears on my paper, missing your smile,
reminiscing your voice,
and envisioning your iris has me in the clouds
I’ll always love you
Yeah
I’ll always love you

[verse 3]
Deep in the trench
I can barely feel my feet, my head rests on the sea floor and yet
I haven’t progressed.
The process is long and God has broken his promise
Doomed to death, his presence left now all I got is the present of mortality.
My morality’s low, anxiety is high, society is rocking my boat
I crashed landed, all I love left me stranded
You stood me up but I’m still standing
The future melted my eyes, why am I abandoned?
History absolved me…
All is left is the famine.
