Brake Lights Lyrics by Japiro

The Climb 2

2019

I still do it for the love and the passion
Feeling like Nas, when he dropped Stillmatic
You can tell by the fabric that this cloth is different
Ain’t no love ❤️ without pain, damn the love went missing
I’m just here reminiscing bout you, wish you were here
I couldn’t write this song without shedding a couple tears
I remember the early years we didn’t speak much
By 12th grade things changed, even the Freelunch
You were like the gel to the crew, what the hell we gon’ do
My album wouldn’t be complete without a song about you
Sometimes, we give the roses 🌹 out when it’s just too late
Being stubborn, holding grudges, damn I can relate
Wait, just let it breathe, just let it breathe, ugh
Rico gone, he was only 17
Everything ain’t what it seems damn life’s so short
The streets never loved us, it’s like we signed up for war
Just the 💭 thought of being poor, makes me wanna do more
But love’s gonna getcha, damn, we think we knew it all
So many things be going on, I don’t know 🤷🏾‍♂️ how I deal
I just, get this money, mind my business and chill
You can’t tell me how to feel when I’m at loss for words
You can pray about it all, spend some time in the church
And for everything it’s worth it can’t buy you more time
So while your on earth, you better grind double time
Cause the stars been aligned, it’s all part of our design
Cause we can lose it all here at any given time
I just be penning rhymes, while my wife be sipping wine 🍷
Having casual conversations bout the way we had to Climb
80’s baby’s never cry 😢 all these things be on my mind
Sometimes I sit and ask God why did Jason had to die
And I didn’t say goodbye 👋🏾 and it hurts me every time
We was barely 16, back when Marty and Weldon died
And even on the inside I know it hurts me more
We was walking to Jimmy D’s what was we searching for
I know my purpose more, know I was raised right
I gotta stop 🛑 now, all I see is brake lights...
