Yeah I know you probably hate the fact I´m lonely at the top But you was there the day I said I´m never gonna stop
When you was givin´ evidence, I´m sittin in the dark While you´re getting interrogated by the prosecutor and the judge And I remember when we never had a pot to piss in Always on the road, no hugging, no kissing No Valentine´s cards or flowers in the kitchen By the time I had a car, we´d already started drifting And I wonder what was running through your head when I was switching You was dealing with a boy who was just trying to build a business I was dealing with some things that I still haven´t fixed But, it turns out, trauma is the teacher of wisdom We were just kids, who we kidding
Twelve years into this trip and I still feel like I´m trippin´ Never thought we´d have to say goodbye in the beginning But it´s life, and I just thank God we´re still living
She sits and cries about the times we were low And when her family ask about me, she says we´re cool Tell her not to cry no more Tell her not to cry no more Tell her not to cry no more
I thank God we´re still living, still chilling No more near misses Wet tissues and tears were the story of them detrimental years
You stood with me through the dark days, nightmares You were really ride or die, you was right there You was with me on the backstreets with a firearm in the car And you really did not care You wasn´t with me for the money, you was in it for the love It´s a shame that I wanted a life that you didn´t really want Am I right? Am I wrong? As I´m writing this song, it´s like I don´t know a love story as poetic When Beauty met The Beast I thought it had a happy ending with a wedding I don´t know, you might regret it
She sits and cries about the times we were low
And when her family ask about me, she says we´re cool Tell her not to cry no more Tell her not to cry no more Tell her not to cry no more
Through the valley of the shadow of death The dark sets in and I feel heavily stressed As the moon sheds light on my devilish day Look to the sky, say my heavenly prayers Only God can help get the damage repaired
