Phone call, a voice trying not to crack One star watching the city limits, but the sky is empty and black. I don't know what you were doing, I can only assume You didn't know about enemy plans taking place under the moon.
A pop.
Too close to home to sit through in comfort, But not far enough that you can get to say 'I wonder' Bright young soul, big bro always had a plan and story So maybe you can teach me how to kick-flip from Purgatory
We used to kick it at the church; riding up and down the street Felt like learning the Universe Them big hills was a big deal Until life said retreat, And went on to open up the seal.
We grew apart as years passed But Ill never forgot the sting of your passing It's in the air, like tear gas
You had a lot of friends, and left a lot of broken hearts And way too many broken pieces left apart to call it art.
And we never got to hit a park together But I live by "If you bust your ***, you'll get better" The first words you spoke the first time I jumped ship, And the first words you spoke when I first busted my lip.
I know we weren't the closest, but you've known me since seven. Two months will make a year, I hope you're grinding on halos for eternity If there's a heaven.
Last year I lost one of my friends way to soon. I haven't written about it yet but it's long overdue. For Tahaj. Miss you big bro.
