[Verse 1]
Round the clock, on n off
Nonchalant, bouncing walls
We, talk a lot, don’t respond
We’re, quick to fault, hold a grudge

We’re, hard to stop, hard to start
Our, hearts are hard, it's hard to watch
The, cost of war is never soft
We were told, we were told, hey

You're either too scared to fail, or too scared to try
Run for ya dreams, run fo’ you fly
Love for the means, love for the ride
Once you believe, guns to ya life

Some new advice
Secluded types
Abuse their time
With foolish spite
Don’t prove em' right
To prove em wrong
Just carry on, move along, not involved, and live like you was new to life!

[Hook]
I I I, I miss the
I I I I miss the
I I I I miss the
I miss the shit that made me smile so big
I miss the shit that made me smile so big
I miss the shit that made, I miss the shit that made me
I miss the shit that made me smile so big

[VERSE 2]
I miss the shit
That made me smile so big
My chapped ass lips would crack n down would drip
A lick, of happiness
Boom, disaster hits
Wiped, my master disc
Skip, a chapter flips

Pace to find a page to capture it
Older age I burn to catch a glimpse
I can’t hate what i don’t have to live
I can’t fake what I don’t have to give

Hiphop cast away
Pastors say, that
Hiphops passageway
Passed away
For flipflop masquerades
Database of gift shop
Whacks n fakes
Rap for name, no shame

We don’t, collaborate
We smoke, evaporate
We shoot n validate
Our day to days, we high but we can’t escape

[Bridge]
I see your eyes momma, I see home, I see hope;
I see rain, I see pain I have paved on your roads
I can’t name all you gave, I can't give what you hold;

A smile from your cheeks, brings cheers to my boat;
Like lands that I seek, after years all alone;
Under your feet, neath’ the flesh of your soles
Lie treasures of gold, heaven and hope

Dont let go of your hope
Don’t let go of your hope
Don’t let
Don't let
Don’t let go of your hope
Don’t let go of your hope
Don’t let
Lonely
Don’t let go of your hope

The simple life
The simple life
The simple life
The simple life
The simple life
The simple life
The simple life
A single life

Simplified
Fit to size
Pics of i
Instant highs
Hypnotized
Mystified
Criticized
Victimized
New divides
Thicker lines
You decide
Man I miss the times
Man I miss the times
Didn’t live for likes
Used to live for life
