[verse 1]
i remember that first day
when i first looked into your eyes
knew i loved you
but your love for me took me by surprise
and that’s when our relationship began to develop through time
there were times when we struggled but also knew we’d be fine
you looked down at a dead bird and i remembered these words
“how come we’re born in the first place if all we do is just die?”
i said “i don’t know why, i guess it’s just apart of life”
we held each others hands and then walked home that same night
if there was something we were going through
wouldn’t give up without a fight
and when my mind was in dark places
you always showed me the light
when i was on the verge of giving up
you gave me a reason to try
that’s why you’ll always mean the most to me
no matter what goes on in our lives
every time that you’d cry
i’d dry the tears out your eyes
hold you close to me and say that it’ll all be alright
even if i was lying and i’m unsure if i’m right
i know if it weren’t for you i’d still be contemplating my life
cause…

you are… (4x)

[verse 2]
first day of school
i was holding your hand
the world was much tougher than both of us could understand
we were both very young and i was hardly a man
parents worried about us
wondering if i still had a plan
cause lately my bills have been consuming me just like quick sand
you said “how you gonna support me if you can’t support yourself?”
but i should be paying more more attention to you
and less to my wealth
i just needed some guidance
i just needed some help
i needed someone who treated me better than i treated myself
n0body knows which hands are sh-tty until after they’re dealt
cause in the game of life the rules will never stop giving you h-ll
that’s what i kept telling myself
know you have problems sometimes but i have problems as well
and as we grew older
our age deteriorated our relationship’s health
but i still loved you even though you felt the opposite about me
even when you said you couldn’t stand me and that you wanted to leave
the words “i hate you” is what i heard you constantly repeat
i tried to help you through life
tried to help you succeed
even if the response i got was nonsense i just wanted you to believe
cause…

[verse 3]
one very dark and rainy night is when we had our first severe fight
wanted to spend more time with other people that i just didn’t like
remember the advice you’d take for granted is what you’d sarcastically recite
you doubted me when i became unemployed and began to rely more on my mic
your decisions were wrong
i was just tryna do what was right
by taking my time and performing at shows every night
just barely making enough money for the both of us to survive
cause there was no denying we were both in the middle of some very harsh times
“i can’t take you anymore”
were the last words you said to me before you walked out the door
seems like no matter how much i try to do i always need to do more
the moment you left my chest sunk to the floor
had a feeling you weren’t the same person that i knew from before
wish we could find a way to end the fight and just settle the score
but every time i try to call you i know your pushing “ignore”
nearly 6 years later and not a single call or a text
until one day you sent me something i couldn’t believe i’d just read
“hey, lets meet up somewhere” is what your message had said
that coffee shop we both had hated is where we ironically met
the moment i saw you my heart almost beat outta my chest
you asked “how come no matter what i did or said you still continued tried your best?
you taught me which path was right but i took the left one instead, so why didn’t you just give up on me and leave me for dead?”
i said cause…
