VERSE 1 she told me tag her in the photo so she can see me whenever she clicks the logo they say goodbye as I’m boarding the plane we promise to stay in touch but know it won’t be the same see i haven’t seen my best friends since pursuing rap the last time i saw my home was on google maps — feels like this new start has brought the old to an end I love where I’m at, but *its like i* I’ve lost where I’ve been i try to keep relationships through snapchat but nowadays neither of us really snap back guess we can’t live off emojis and texts its funny how wifi makes me feel disconnected forget it….my pride is what I’m swallowing so now I’m speaking like the instagrams I’m following no filter, my blood grows thinner I’m cold even living in a place with no winter she calls me scared like she’s using up her life line begins to cry as we both staring at the night sky we may be far but we’re looking at the same moon just gimme time - we’ll have new moments for this frame soon VERSE 2 I’ve missed 3 weddings and a graduation feel like i just need to get back to basics trading seconds for a stack of pages getting caught up from a lack of patience i never couldve seen myself in this position its everything i dreamed but sometimes it feels like shit is missing see i remember coming home from my visit telling my mom theres not a chance that i would go there forget it and well its been a year since i went n made the Houston move with the homies screaming know i had to do it to em haaaa A new circle - gotta curve em if they aint straight cuz these squares always getting twisted like a rubix cube the best year of my life, wouldn’t trade it for a moment through the tears and the strife can’t believe what I’ve been blessed with, can’t believe what has been tested and even through all the lessons man y’all still won’t get the message I’m just saying sometimes its hard to be away i see my brother getting buckets in his varsity game and my other brothers number one in his high school class our lives are flying through fast just wish that I knew that he says i wish you couldve seen it, and it breaks my heart its like i built up this love, and now its taken apart so now I’m living through pictures, scrolling through anything i might miss wishing i could do a little more than like it
