1972 Lyrics by Aerhexz

we were young

2023

Grew in different streets, but same old town
I knew you'd still be fighting if youre still here now
Grew up together, fists in the air
I knew since that day youd be a fighter
You said you wanna be writer, after they took the life of your father
We were 16, i didn't know what it means
My momma said, be good and live with it
We used to play in your room
You told me bout ur mom that was taken so soon
And your dad that used to work in an media outlet that was taken down in 1972
I knew i liked you and your brave soul
How we smoke in ur bed and talked about our goals
You asked me if i would run away with you
I cried and said yes i do
One day you showed up to my house
Hugged me tight and whispered, "this maybe our last"
I was lost and i cried, you knew they been watching you since your dad
Since your words on papers
Since your fist in the air
Since your scream and stand on the road
Since the words your spoke
And i, i wanted to scream
I didn't know what to do
I dont want to live with this
For im scared for my life too
Since forever in 1972
News on the street
People are talking
My mother cried and hugged me
And said, "be still, i know we dont want to live with this"
They found him on a field half naked and covered in blood
For he is a young man who fought for what is right
