lyrics

[Hook]
Stars are falling
The night sky is calling
You had your chance
But the wait begins For another day

[Verse 1]
Whats up with you bro?
"Aint nothing much"
Life's a rush, been a minute
Since we been in touch
And everyday tryna
Find new ways to illustrate
With wordplay,
At times a stroke of paint
At times a messy spray
But hey
Enough about me
What about my old homie?
Talented tho your strength is not the academics
An epidemic, they told you in school that you were stupid
But no one saw the skills in your doodles when you drew it
Eventually you dropped out, financial woes
Lack of passion for the life for you
Your parents chose
Working 2 shifts
tryna make ends meet
Contribute to
Darlene's school fees
Life's taking its toll
Our childhood all but over
Cant even create the way you supposed to
Cant help but grieve the death of your artistic dreams on wax

[Hook]

[Verse 2]
You couldve been here with me Such a pity
Came in the scene same time Tried but really
We both had issues
OTW to the top

Hope you know this aint a diss
To the way that you dropped
The rap life that we led
Full of driven and wet
You let your dick do the thinking and It got you misled
Now, what could I say
To the young homie?
Just a kid,
Cant critique the way that you play
So i stepped aside like a ladder
And you stepped like a child
Reduced to only calling you Once in awhile
Fell right up out the game
Pussy got you insane
Extravagant
Dates at Marina Bay Sands
Feeling Romeo not knowing
How the story really ends
And without ambition
You just a shell of a man
Yelled in it god damn
No sound, just sand
Hope one day you get your fire back
With this candle wax

[Verse 3]
To the past me
Tell me about the Kids
Tell me about the jealousy
that tore us to bits
or was it
the insecurity in the minds
of the leaders
Came from solo mid lane
to a feeder
To reach ya
Went back in time to write this poem A solemn confession about
All the fears that came true
and Q
your girl gave up putting up with you left the dreamer
found herself an achiever
the reaper
gave no warning as he took your soul Rust from gold
Dusty cold
Speech
Soon I would know to practice what I preach

[Hook] (x2)
