DISTANT Lyrics by Jai Winter

AFTER THE SNOWFALL

2024

[Verse 1:]
Motion
I’ve been movin’ the mountains and oceans
You been drownin’ in bottles of potions
Drownin’ deep in depressive emotions
Hopin’ someone around you would notice
They gon leave you right out in the open
Wishin’ and hopin’ the pain go away as I’m writin’ my feelings
I’m killing the person I was but the image won’t change every time that I paint it
I paint it
I paint it
I paint it
It’s still outta focus
I sharpen the image to bring out the portrait
The boy outta Philly
He came off the porches
From section 8 livin’ to houses and fortune
To sleepin’ in peace
No more sleepin’ with roaches
I’m burying pain to get weight off my shoulders
I’m burying pain hopin’ no one would notice

[Chorus:]
I just wanna be alone
I just wanna be alone
I can see you calling I ain’t picking up the phone
Double text, unsend the message
Hit you later on
DND to airplane might just be the mode
I just wanna be alone
I just wanna be alone
I can see you calling I ain’t picking up the phone
Double text, unsend the message
Hit you later on
DND to airplane might just be the mode

[Verse 2:]
If I’m being honest I never been honest about all the trauma from section 8 living to gun, smoke, and violence
Start hearing the sirens
We run down the block
Get to ducking
And jumping
We moving in silence
I’m camping the house till I hear em go silent
A little too quiet
Grew up in environments people would die right in front of ya house from the elements
Death been irrelevant
False hope and a dream is the only thing selling
That boy on the corner the only one telling
We look up to heroes and still become villains
Cause ain’t no one really out guiding the children
I hate the comparison
King to a peasant
I hate we comparing the past to the present
Apparent my parents created a blessing
I’m still getting deep in this valley and blessin’ em

[Chorus:]
I just wanna be alone
I just wanna be alone
I can see you calling I ain’t picking up the phone
Double text, unsend the message
Hit you later on
DND to airplane might just be the mode
I just wanna be alone
I just wanna be alone
I can see you calling I ain’t picking up the phone
Double text, unsend the message
Hit you later on
DND to airplane might just be the mode
