lyrics

Since about the age of two I looked up to you n
Now that you're gone I don't know what the fuck to do
I nearly started goin down the wrong road
But now I'm try an break this hip hop code
I don't know if you've been lookin down on me
But I've nearly died a couple times, maybe three
At least I'm still here to see the light of a new day
And I'm grateful if you helped in any kind of way

But if you didn't I just still wanna say
Thanks for being my role models in the early days
I took your advice n common knowledge as a kid
You told me to apply it to life so that's what I did
Until this girl cheated on me n then I blew my lid
n since then my life has been all full of sin
Grow the fuck up,
pull your damn socks up
That's pretty much all I've been hearin since you've been gone

I promise this time I'm gonna do it right yeah
I promise this time I'll do it right.

I remember from when I was just a young tacker
Things you said like when a girl makes you mad,
don't ever smack her
Or look after your mum cos you've only ever got one
n if don't Matt
I'll kick you in the bum

I wish I told you more how much you meant to me
But you guys were pretty smart I guess that you could both see
That without you in this world it was meaningless
n when you guys left I felt like I was being less
of a man n no one will understand
how much you two really need to be here,

Sometimes mum breaks down into tears
and I think your voice would be music to her ears
You departure from this world was life changing
n I can't lie I really fuckin hate aging
I can't live amongst all this stress
I wish you guys were here so you could clean up all the mess

I suffer from the curse of procrastination
But at least you all know that I'm not an imitation
I take my time writing down what I want to say
n I promise that one day I'll blow you all away
With my words and the music that I write to
But from down here I got a pretty shitty view
So I'll climb this metaphorical ladder
I'll climb it so high so when I slip it won't even matter

You might see me runnin but you'll never see me comin.
