lyrics

"Final Attempt" featuring Lyricks

(verse 1)
have you ever felt there was somethin stuck in your chest
a burden that was never lifted like a thorn in your flesh
it's my moment of clarity my time to speak out
in all honesty i'll drop my damn pride for this so listen

its been only 2 years since we met, it feels ancient
we did our first collab and it still gets rotation
the real gift was the new alliance i aint lyin
no friendship is for granted, though sometimes it starts dyin

mid 2006 i took you out ur hibernation
fed you motivation. you seemed dedicated then
pumpin out tracks like a factory remember?
you helped build my mixtape, songlist was thick like milkshakes

on the real had some real ass conversations, i miss em
it takes a lot for me to say this
i admired your talent son, and passion i was glad you found it
but now i wonder where that same passion went


*it's too big, brother for the small things to mean somethin
where u at, where u been, when u comin back?
met through hiphop, used to drop gems
still a part of the camp so dont ever stop man


---(verse 2 - Lyricks verse)------

(verse 3)
i can say you let me down a lot
backed out a lot of promised shows and you showed that you wouldn't grow
the last one in june i wasn't really mad
but you wasn't man enough to ask me how it went, i was sad

no homo, no choice but to cut you off
you slowed me down and ur work ethics pissed me off
but this is me releasin steam about loyalty
why leave a brother hangin never even gave a call

at one point i swear we shared the same goal
the same dream and its why we was on the same team
i know God has put a seed in you
for that reason itself i can't ever let myself regret meetin you

but this my final attempt to tell you that you got it
we only live once, we been sittin in the cockpit, ready to fly
yo i'm ready to die for
makin that great music that all these fans die for.
