We miss ya
Yo writer's block
Sick of grippin' on this d**n pencil
Messin' with this man's mental
I need to take a break
I got simple symptoms of a man gentle
Stressing 'cause my fam' miss you
I need to see your face
On the Grand Central navigation telling' me to drive slow
Thinkin' about all of the places
I roam and people in my home
I wanna know why they come and go
Why I'm getting all these thoughts the piano and the drum evoke
I'm reminded of the first time
We spoke how you loved the first rhyme I wrote
Except the curses but you loved the jokes
How you told me nights I wasn't actin' right
Never letting me take some bad advice we had our fights
But it's like your life was meant for you
To be my mentor and my guardian
These feelings that I never want to enter in my heart again
Are seeping in I'm weakened I'm alive but I'm cold
I imagine you're my passenger reminisce on the road
Back through time
Time time goes by yeah
Still I cry
Reminiscing 'bout you
And I close my eyes
And ask why
I have to live without you
First Michael Jackson passes now every day I'm askin'
Why weren't you able to stay stay
Days are only kind of better so I'm writing you this letter
Full of things I never got to say say
First and foremost I love you and that never changes
When you left I couldn't gauge it the pain was outrageous
But now it's kind of strange
You help me get through the days just
By thinking of your face and reminiscing through the pages
Everything I wrote and that I'm saying on them stages
I'm passionate I hear your laugh again and little traces
Of your smile flicker through my closed eyes
Wishin' I could nose dive in your heart's
Ocean and just float by
Who knows why I feel the way that I do
I got more to say
But I think that I'll just save it for you
For that first day
We meet again the stories will be told
We'll be drivin' through our lives and reminisce on the road
Back through time
Time time goes by
Still I cry
Reminiscing 'bout you
And I close my eyes
And ask why
I have to live without you
Writer's block sick of grippin' on this d**n pencil
Messin' with this man's mental I need to take a break
I got simple symptoms of a man gentle
Stressing 'cause my fam' miss you I need to see your face
Face face
You know I can't wait
Can't wait till we get
Be face to face again and I can
I can tell you all this in person
Time time goes by
Still I cry
Reminiscing 'bout you
And I close my eyes
And ask why
I have to live without you
I remember like it was yesterday
And I close my eyes last night when I fell asleep
Grandpa always had a joke
I remember like it was yesterday
And I close my eyes last night when I fell asleep
I dreamed you were here right next to me
And ask why
We were young playing in the street
Just kicking it old school like this beat
Time time goes by best friend always had my back
Always real and I'm really grateful for that
Still I cry
Reminiscing 'bout you
Good friends from back in the days
So no one can never ever take your place
And I close my eyes
Seems like all my inspiration is moving and leaving and passing on
And ask why
Bright stars that inspire me
Touch my life and next minute they're gone
