Murs - I Miss Mikey lyrics

[Verse 1:] Days going by, I'm losing friends You never know when it's gon' end Some in the pen, some underground Souls that are lost, hope they are found If heaven's a place, I hope that they're there Wherever they are, they know that I care It's coming for me, so I get prepared Look in my eyes, the fear isn't there 'Cause I been aware, I live in the shadows The valley of d**h, where I do my battle One day I'm a lose and then I'll be gone I'm making these songs, so that I live on [Interlude 1:] d**h is like, it's a crazy thing and I'm gonna talk about it And my mom, she... She feared for me and my brothers because we seen more d**h that she's seen in her sixty-something years... [Hook:] I miss Mikey cause, that's the way it is You start to lose your friends and you don't wanna live You gotta give it time, and the pain will pa** I miss Walker and Camu and the homie Poo In the days past and days to come You got to live your life and make each day your favorite one In the days past and days to come You got to live your life [Verse 2:] You're put on this Earth for however long It favors the weak and never the strong They say it's a game, so I play along Some say I'm king, some say I'm pawn Live from the soul to the break of dawn You never know the day you'll be gone No matter the odds, I'm taking 'em all Some say I'm right, some say I'm wrong Wanna escape the path that you're on? Erasing the pain by waving a wand Some roll a J, some hit the bong I let the beat play, then I make a song [Interlude 2:] [?] You know, n***as is smoking and drinking and all feeling the same pain And we come from a culture where it's not, it's not all the way legit to share your feelings, so some of us don't even know how to connect on that level, you know? [Hook] [Outro:] And I feel like sometimes that's the even, like the main, the reason that I got, I got married, is because I wanted to have the homies in, in dress-up for something that wasn't a funeral for once, 'cause the only time we wear these f**ing clothes and these f**ing shoes and these shirts and these ties is, sh**, is when when motherf**ers get put in the ground. Or for a court day, where a motherf**er get hit with numbers. Like, what the f** man? You know? And then through all this sh**, that's all, you know, d**h is a normal point, like everybody goes through that sh**. Like on top of the f**ing police f**ing with you, on top of b**hes a** n***as f**ing with you, on top of, you know what I'm sayin', your pops not being there or someplaces your mom and your father not being there and they throw it all on you. Uh, you go: ''You know, have a nice life'' STRAAANGE! Music
