dear child - mirwin lyrics

verse 1:
took my first breath the day diana laid to rest
so legends never die, we just multiply (multiply)
i’ve seen sh*t in my life, i never would have guessed
so let me reminisce on vivid simple times
back when i’d play with legos, hasta luego
say goodbye to my innocence, h*llo to f*cking payroll
nowadays i’d trade it all, even trips to turks and caicos
just so i’d forget what i know
i thought my parents were perfect, and my heart would never break
i thought 10:00 was latе but now i stay up every day
had a smile on my facе but something took it’s place
i guess it’s safe to say that times have changed
can we stay a little longer? in nine from ninety seven?
it’s the first day of third grade, scared to get detention
time for roll call in class, wide awake, barely present
i’m so tired of repeating all these lessons
went from nursery rhymes to sixteens, nightmares to big dreams
from packed lunch to packed up for a flight across the sea
still i hear this voice from when i played make believe
so i’m tryna find that part of me that’s lost
i’ve spent my whole d*mn life, running from my youth
but i left something back there and deep down i know it’s true
i guess that’s what i’m chasin’ when i step in to the booth
who would’ve thought i’d become friends with a noose?
i’ve learned time passed isn’t always time wasted
but sometimes you grow up way faster than you wanted
so i’m tryna take it slow, step away from all the drama
go on tiktok less and talk more with my momma
i think i’m finally healing, i’m becoming less numb
these tired legs no longer have to run, have to run
so i wrote this open letter to mich*lle and glenn’s son
dear matthew, i hope you’re proud of who i’ve become
dear child
it’s ok
come closer
i promise
i won’t
lose you, again
interlude:
happy birthday, dear matthew and joshua
happy birth

verse 2:
all the trauma that i’ve been through
hits harder when the rent’s due
all my memories, 12 and under
i’m still eatin’ off that menu
who am i kiddin’? i’m winnin’
but somehow it ain’t enough
this right here’s an august night
but it feels like the summer’s up
got regrets that i’ve been facin’
plus some dreams i’m scared of chasin’
all this bread that i’ve been breakin’
got me indiana pacin’
remember kiddie college plans?
now i’m the man
back then i’d draw with crayons
needed my dad to hold my hand
but then i started to grow up
and you never seemed to show up
so maybe i’ll stop at target
and buy me some crayolas
throwin’ back a glass of apple juice
for tears that i’ve fought
then i’m pourin’ out the bottle
for all the dreams that i’ve lost
i was an artist back then
but it was pure
i’m tryna get back to that place
but i can’t find the words
i’m fightin’ all these feelings
and changes deep in my soul
but it never hits the same, i’m so afraid
and i just wanna go back
sing for me, momma
one more time
sing for me, momma
pretty please
i’ll sing for you, momma
i’ll sing for you, momma
hold me like those good old days
the ones that feel so far away
hold me like those good old days
when you were only a call away
