5 years

Intro – soft hums & ad-libs]

Yeah, yeah, yeahhh…

Let’s gooo… (yeah, uh-huh)

Mmm, yeah, yeahhh…

⸻

It’s been five years I was smokin’ weed

High all the time, never was I clean

It’s been five years I was smokin’ weed

Where did the time go? but I hate bein’ sober

I’m Aang in the zone, every bar airbendin’

Avatar of rhyme — all four flows blendin’

I got earth, wind and water rolled up in a joint

Fire lightin’ it to stay high (yeah, yeah)

Feelin’ like I’m lost in the smoke again

Every puff I take just erase my sins

Said I’d quit, but I love that spin

Every cloud I chase got a ghost within (woo)

⸻

Feelin’ like I’m lost in the clouds again (clouds again)

Every puff I take erase the pain within (pain within)

I just need my peace but the smoke my sin (smoke my sin)

I just need my peace but I’m gone again (gone again)

⸻

I used to date you when I was fifteen (fifteen)

Kinda wish we never ended things (never did)

If I could go back, you’d still be next to me

Honestly I’m still friends with you — that means everything (yeah)

I wasn’t dealin’ with the demons in my head (my head)

Feel like Uzi ’cause all my feelings are dead (so dead)

Numb to the pain but I’m countin’ up my bread (count it up)

Somehow I wish I said what was unsaid (unsaid)

Now I’m just upset with a heart full of regret (regret, yeah)

⸻

It’s been five years, and I’m still tryna grow

Still findin’ peace in the pain I know

Still talk to God but I’m movin’ slow

He said, “you can’t heal while you hold that smoke”

I been dreamin’ in a haze, life feel like a phase

Used to run from my past, now I face those days

Love fades, friends change, but I stay the same

Music my drug, put the flame to my veins

Every bar I breathe got truth inside

Even when I smile, got tears I hide

Five years gone, but I still survive

Still tryna find hope in the lows of life (yeah)

(Yeah) I been wastin’ time, lost inside my mind

Smokin’ just to feel alive but I’m dyin’ every night

Five years gone by, can’t rewind this life

But I still feel your light when I close my eyes

(Yeah) I been wastin’ time, lost inside my mind

Five years gone by, girl I still can’t lie

You the ghost that stay inside every rhyme I write (yeah)

Yeah-yeah-yeahhh…

Mmm… still high, still here (still here)

Five years… disappear…
