You associate with everything you hear
The sound, the way it made you feel that somber year
That song it redefined the seasons
And now it's all we have to hang our keys on.
That song.
You clean your memories, the ones you don't want
You'll never get over the sound of the song
when you're all alone.
You ride along, the song comes on the radio
You never get over the sound of the song when you're all alone.
You played it loud so everyone could hear.
I whispered what I thought the words were in your ear
That song was written for a reason.
And now it's all we have to hang our keys on.
That song.

Fuck you squares, The circle got smaller The castle got bigger, The walls got taller And truth be told after all that said Niggas still got love for you
This is my warning to you. Stay clear. At all costs, avoid her like the plague my friend; she is no good. Not one bit.
Most people ask questions because they are curious of the answers, but not her. Don't be fooled. Her priority list starts and ends with one word and that word is her name. She'll call you up to ask how you are, but she really just wants you to know how she is.
In a small town, she would have a reputation in town, but in a large city she can drift in and out with a low profile. So many new people to hear her empty words. Her desire for attention will grow old and wear thin on your patience. She walks in circles, going no where. Why? Because she does what satisfies the short term feelings of her ADHD mind. If I had to give two words of advice, they would be to stay away.
She will talk to you, call you, and even come hang around, but only when someone can do something for her. Don't get me wrong, she cares about other people but her selfishness gets in the way of that. A friend to her is someone who can help her in the moment. Stay away.
If you are shiny enough you may spark her interest for a day/week/month, but when the weather dulls your shininess, the girl will drift. You will be left to lick your wounds.
Don't think for a second that you can change her. Just wait and see, because one day your phone will stop ringing.
I say this not out of anger, spite, or any other negative feelings. This is just my warning to you dear friend. She is in it for herself and one day, sooner than later, she will drift to the next shiny boy. My advice? Stay away.
Abandoned by the very thing you once held so close. It is something that still exists; it even looks similar, but is but a shell of its former self. You are left standing alone in the rain and feel truly alone.
This thing has driven away your friends, family, and hobbies. Not only abandoned, you are an altered self that only is brought down by this dead weight.
Held up by upbringing, morals and pride, you stand as tall as possible with the sun setting behind you. What legacy will you leave? Will your thoughts, memories and dreams be muffled by your shadow?
An Uncle? Me? I thought it would be a long time coming, but apparently the times, they are a changing. I'm nervous no doubt. But let us not forget my excitement. A little baby boy on the way.
A new location, new job, family changes, and friend changes lead to a full mind and a full schedule.
The river creeps higher as the rainwater settles in. A boy becomes curious and swims into this new territory. He finds a whole new world. Suddenly, he looks behind him to see the the river has receded. He is now trapped in this puddle. The hot July sun cooks the earth, and with it his water becomes less and less. He is now trapped and the walls are closing in around him.
It was once good to be a big fish in the river, but being the big fish in a dwindling puddle leaves him vulnerable.
Death is inevitable.
