Do you feel it?
That sour lemon taste
Bitterness plastered over your face
Memories leaving you disgraced
Haunted feeling in familiar places
Mind in regretful spaces
Kings don't compare to Aces
Ego feeling torn
Regret didn't take nine months to be born
Weeping every prickly thread you've sown
Laying comfortably on the bed made on your own
Experiencing the hassle of getting me on the phone
Embracing that my presence is gone
Thoughts of me got your focus all out of zone
But you don't have to experience all of that alone
Call them better options up to your home
Continue to thrive and live it up
You cheered when it was me giving up
You sprouted while I slowly shriveled up
You smiled as you left my pride chiseled up
You aimed for the stars and better luck
All you had to do was open your eyes and look up.
Hallucinations of a better land and lot than me
So everyone not around.. take a shot for me 💋
