sing a simple a song
hum a lonely tune
will whistle along
when it's just us two
the path sits upon
the best of you and i
the least we can do
is give this a try
(x2)

my eyes open wide to a sky
I prophesied
as I tried to ride
a tidal wave and died
I promised i'd make it
even if I died
so I promise i'll make it
when I finally fly
don't give up just yet
i'll show you why
I can tell your upset
and I understand why
but that ain't the subject
I left your eyes dry
when they swam through your elixir
from your throat to your liver
like a handle of liquor
please do your best to
understand something bigger
I only flow
I never damned up your river
hell I dug new canal
dubbed it a way out
won't you be a pal
save that sound
make that town stand and
break that crown
then make a new life
like break that bottle
hop on that bike
pull back full throttle
never look back, it
ain't like you got to
chain free wrists
this why you got through
begged for a wish, genie
dished out two
but now you can't commit
got me sick, wondering
who the fuck are you

sing a simple a song
hum a lonely tune
will whistle along
when it's just us two
the path sits upon
the best of you and i
the least we can do
is give this a try
(x2)

I won't always be a kid
in need of a baby sitter
I was thinking shit
i'll be that heavy hitter
cause I was thinking this
didn't depend on skin colors
I was thinking big, something
like my older brothers
each looks up to the next
I got your pictures on my wall
memories in this chest
are my pick up when I fall
how you stay strong
stuck facing it all
alone...
how you stay strong
fighting so far
from home...
how could know me now
if never saw me grow
or maybe
maybe i'm still that kid
in the still photograph
when I smile was is in grasp
taped up on your wall
or framed on your dresser
when you were telling me
we're fighters
no pressure
...
I do this full time
hope you don't think the lesser
looking at me wondering
who the fuck are you
