(Chorus) ((As time moves on, this world keeps changin’ And brings our lives all into different stages. What feels like ages blows away in the wind. Just pray that maybe I’ll see ya’ll again (2x) And just go down the road.)) Verse 1 Life’s too short to hold a grudge, I’ve held enough, I’m done. I lost a best friend over stupid shit, look back at me and all I see’s a stupid kid who didn’t have a clue what he was doin’ too naive to see that he was the reason that he was losin’ ‘em. Apology excepted but could tell it had changed. Cuz like he sang, things’ll never be the same And now it seems so strange to see him singin’ with another Cuz it feels like only yesterday we’s closer than brothers. Toastin’ to whatever, man I’ll never forget All those freestyle sessoions we spit in the back. I still listen to ‘em often, and even tho we sounded like shit, That shit’s fuckin awesome. And now I know that we could never be as close as we were Cuz what I said in them songs, I should’ve spoken in words Instead of cowering behind an instrumental to speak And ruining a friendship, that’s to say the least, man, damn… (Chorus) Verse 2 As time flies by it wont pump it’s breaks, no. And your son still never got to meet Uncle Jayo. I always thought I’d be a bigger part of his life, But my prayers go to ya’ll, I know your raisnin’ him right. I don’t know where I went wrong. Or even if I did. But if I did, I didn’t mean to, I just did what I did. I never thought we’d be distant strangers, that aint us, We’re B.F.A.M. man, damn look how distance changed us. You probably wouldn’t recognize my face. It’s been like two or three of the longest years I’ve ever faced. And I’m going through some changes, I know your doin the same. But we shouldn’t let distance get the best of us man. I still love you like a brother and I think you should know Cuz when you love someone, you should tell em if they don’t. I’m still here for you bro no matter how far apart Life brings us, it don’t mean shit, your always in my heart Cuz… (Chorus) Verse 3 We’ve all got things to do, like move on and forget About the times that we had, the times we’ll never get back. It’s a pitty to see we’re livin’ in different cities and states A thousand miles away from the grounds we use to play. I guess it’s really not such a small world after all As time moves on, so do I, so do ya’ll. I guess it’s really not such a small world after all Cuz time moves on, so do I, so do ya’ll. It’s crazy cuz how easy a call is to make. We don’t make it. We say that we will, but we fake it, And make excuses to lose in-touch. We’ve got a million and plus other things to do it’s such A drag when you’re like me and hold on to the past Cuz every damn day that passes gets a little more sad. Sad. Sad. A little more sad I use to cope with alcohol, but it’s pointless to turn to that. It cant turn time back, or lessen a distance. We are who we are and what we were is what I’m missin’. Fam. Man, It cant turn time back, or lessen a distance. We are who we are and what we were is what I’m missin’. Fam. We are who we are and what we were is what I’m missin’. Fam. We are who we are and who we were is what I’m missin’. Damn. (Chorus)

And I lie awake, what I would give if I could sleep naturally and not always being induced by a drink. I can't turn my fuckin mind off, i'm goin' insane. There's no reason that i could see for me be bein' this way. I'll just lay right down, put some music on the radio and if I concentrate, i could go to sleep maybe yo!... No, i can't. I won't, I stand, get a little vodka, then a little turns to 'god damn that's alot' And that use to do the trick., but lately I needa be unconscious if i'm gonna slip off into 'La-la-land' and it's wearin' me out, I'm goin' paranoid, I'm scared of the couch. And who the fuck counts sheep? that method sucks I'll be countin' them motha-fuckas till the sun comes up.... Gotta count shots. and pound em til I'm out and my drink's spillled on my crotch. Late at night when I close my eyes, I know everything's gonna be alright. And if I'm gone by the time you wake just know everything's gonna be okay (2X) I've got to get this out of my system, but how do you quit when you love your addiction? I wanna fade away like a sketch on a paper but it's so hard when sleep isn't second nature. (3X) Late at night when I close my eyes, I know everything's gonna be alright. And if I'm gone by the time you wake just know everything's gonna be okay

A lot of things have come and gone, I remain. Sometimes it's hard to move on through the rain. But I stay strong, put my best foot forward step into this world, and just enjoy it. Eveybody wanna be ahead of the next one, I'm just cool if i'm still sane by the end of each session. I'm digressin', i've learned my lesson don't needa be number one, just stop for a second. Look at my reflection and what do I see? I see an artist workin' his hardest, I don't need to compete. Na,. I do this for me cuz when you listen to a track all you hear is the breeze. Maybe cuz the way i blow through it with ease, feel like the odd man out, I'ma take my leave... You can't hear me, Don't hear me You can't hear me, Don't hear me You can't hear me, Don't hear me You can't hear me, No no no... (2X) Ain't it about a bitch? I've been killin' this lyrical shit experimental flows and you still ain't hear a bit of it. My last album was fire, i should've got more love. an unwritten masterpiece of which I'll make more of. You needa turn your ears on, to broke to pay attention 'less the sentence that i'm sendin' is the entrance of a cheers song. So tell me that my music doesn't got it, that's just down right retarded, let's move on throw that comment in the garbage. Yeah, and i've been doin' this for to long to give a fuck about the critics take your comments and split. You don't hear me, so why the fuck would I listen to you? And why's it matter if I'm complaing if i'm pitching the truth? But every time you open your mouth I hear the bitch that's in you, you fuckin' baby, pipe down and take a sip of you juice. Ha yeah, and you still don't hear me you def s o b's f'in kill me for real man, really where your ears be? seriously, do i needa write my shit in brizly I mean braille, hell, I ain't even tryna sell, i just want you to hear but I ain't thinkin' clear, well maybe one day you'll listen to me with your eyes closed until that day, i'm cool with the fact and I know that.. You can't hear me, Don't hear me You can't hear me, Don't hear me You can't hear me, Don't hear me You can't hear me, No no no... (2X)
