[Verse 1:]

I know things change, with the older we get

But there’s still a lot of things we could never forget

I used to think about this all of the time

Remember senior year, on the offensive line

Yeah, that one season, where we lost nine games

But we got so fucking close, so I guess that’s okay

Tore my ACL, and I was out for the year

Was your first season and my last one with the Steers

Introduced you to my friends, the ones that you couldn’t find

We were chill, brothers, buddies, you were one of the guys

When we used to go eat Dragon and we saw Jolene

And we living life happy, like it’s all from a dream

But it came crashing down, like the Hindenburg

Just ghosted us all without even saying a word

Now, that right there, my friend, is what we call a snake

And that right there, my friend, I just can’t tolerate

[Hook:]

Time flies over us, but it leaves the shadow behind

[Verse 2:]

Haven’t seen each other, and I don’t understand it

Talking in the parking lot, just you, me and Brandon

I said let’s hang, have a chat, grab a bite

Said you had to go to bed on a Friday night

At 9:30, now what the fuck is the deal

I’m just being really blunt, cuz I’m just keeping it real

I’m about to lose my temper, remember that one December

When I lost my fucking marbles, cuz my heart was fucking tender

About to happen again, about to have a relapse

They telling me to relax, but not until you see that

You left us hanging in the cold, this petty shit is getting old

You doing this and doing that, ain’t no one else been getting told

I was first to see it, these niggas thought I was crazy

Cuz I had already noticed that you had been acting shady

You’ve become a fucking snake, without a rattle

You used to be my nigga, now you’re just a fucking shadow

[Hook:]

Time flies over us, but it leaves the shadow behind

[Verse 3:]

Not even a quick text to check and see if we’re fine

Or even just to have a conversation, clearing our minds

Sometimes I blame you for us drifting apart

For a number of reasons, I don’t know where to start

Like come on, dawg, you know that this isn’t like you

Cutting off your closest friends and acting all brand new

You had some things going on, that’s fine, man I get it

But you should stop and listen to these words for a minute

Cuz dude, you’re really being a pain in the ass

Remember hanging out with me, Morgan and Cas?

Brandon, Danielle, Michael, and Blackshear, too?

Even for a little bit at college last year, too

I know you chose a different path, doing different things and such

But I don’t know how much it would hurt for you just to keep in touch

I know you’re probably thinking you’re just living your life

But I just feel like deep inside, you know you’re living a lie
