[Verse 1]

I've been soaked in the rain, emotionally drained

And you provokin' me is only stokin' the flames

Metal shine for my folks, and they alone in the fray

'Cause my folks been in the same rope at which you hang

So if we don't get along, should I just smoke you in vain

And get over it, and help us both grow through the pain

Listen close to me mayne, it ain't supposed to be this way

Fightin' over bread that both of us could break

We could of corrected mistakes, but instead we rejected thе idea of forgiveness

And wе went our seperate ways, but at the end of the day, it's a decision that we made

Together, it's for the better, than us end up in graves

I know some words were exchanged, it can never be the same

I know some people speak in certian names

But I don't, don't, don't...

This how I'm feelin' inside

It's like our time stood still, but it's still goodbye

[Chorus]

And yo, it ain't just a song, and the choice I made wasn't wrong

Some of 'em makin' me yawn, but I think it's makin' me stronger

So much hatred I can take, before I make a response

Maybe we find it ain't got meaning

Or maybe we ought to settle this like gentlemen, and see the grief that it causes

Can't believe it when I think of all the people I los

Let's squash the beef, and leave it be, and be relievin' exhaustion

I'll agree [...] there ain't no reason for talkin'

So goodbye

[Verse 2]

They say the good die young, but I couldn't find one

Now our good time's done, this is goodbye, huh?

It's like we're meant to be apart

I kept you in my heart, but you left me in the dark

Now our memories are scars, as we seperately embark

On our own quest, questioning connections from the start

Express it in my art, supressing it ain't smart

So I'm more offensive, intense, defensive, on my gaurd

And the more you disrespect me, while defenseless at an arm

The more treacherous my defense mechanisms are

Direct or indirect, yo this mess we made is ours

But instead we push the blame, that's why we at eachothers throats

Those close to me got hurt, supposedly bought first

It openly got worse, now socially ak(words)

That I use to describe, it's like our time stood still

But it's still goodbye

[Chorus]

And yo, it ain't just a song, and the choice I made wasn't wrong

Some of 'em makin' me yawn, but I think it's makin' me stronger

So much hatred I can take, before I make a response

Maybe we find it ain't got meaning

Or maybe we ought to settle this like gentlemen, and see the grief that it causes

Can't believe it when I think of all the people I los

Let's squash the beef, and leave it be, and be relievin' exhaustion

I'll agree [...] there ain't no reason for talkin'

So goodbye

[Verse 3]

Now there's a lot you can know in the way we say our hi's

But more importantly it's in the way we say goodbyes

You meant more to me anyday, and normally I

Ain't good at this sort of thing anyway, but forcefully try

To say when I can't, just get past that

So I say it with a wave of my hand, and that's that

And we remember those hands when they wave at us

'Cause it can never go back to the way it was

Ever, the skeletons in your closet

Represent your problems, and the land with dust

Life isn't fair, but it's fair enough

So this is farewell, guess you never cared enough

To clear the air, and repair all the damage you done

Without foregivness I'd never be the man that I've become

Every story has a side, and this one is mine

It's like our time stood still, but it's still goodbye

[Chorus]

And yo, it ain't just a song, and the choice I made wasn't wrong

Some of 'em makin' me yawn, but I think it's makin' me stronger

So much hatred I can take, before I make a response

Maybe we find it ain't got meaning

Or maybe we ought to settle this like gentlemen, and see the grief that it causes

Can't believe it when I think of all the people I los

Let's squash the beef, and leave it be, and be relievin' exhaustion

I'll agree [...] there ain't no reason for talkin'

So goodbye
