[Intro: MiMiLock]
Grieved what I happened to grieve
My black shroud
[Verse 1: MiMiLock]
When’s the last time I told you that I loved you?
Caught up with distractions like I’m Yuji in the club room
Did you get my happy birthday text? I should’ve called instead
Cause I can’t get no confirmation from those on deathbeds
But maybe I could make it up in another life
Friday was the first time that I ever saw my uncle cry
I really wanna run and hide from it all, you say I’m strong
I know you are, but what am I?
It’s barely even been a day, but we all tired and hurt
I’m fighting just to keep composure while I’m writing this versе
My dad had said he wanna be the onе that’s driving the hearse
And keep your soul intact, rising to the sky from the dirt
I was a child, my first memory is waking with a smile
Now you’re gone, and they gon ask me how I feel
To tell the truth, I don’t know, but this’ll never feel real
As the heaven gates open, how the hell can we heal?
[Chorus: MiMiLock]
Oh, be my rest, be my fantasy
How can I move on without you next to me?
Opened up my wounds, and there’s no remedy
I’ll just numb the pain with fleeting melodies
[Verse 2: MiMiLock]
I always knew this was coming, wish we had more days
So you could see me go to college and get more pay
You seen me go from straight As to failing grades
But you kept me in your prayers, yeah, the love was all the same
When I think about this stuff, I get to thinking bad things
Like would you still be here if you had got that vaccine?
I don’t know, I just wish it wasn’t hard you to breathe in your final days
It’s crazy, I didn’t suspect a thing
You was in the ICU and still waving at us too
But in front of your lifeless body, I was staring at my shoes
What was I supposed to do? Looking at them stupid wires
Man, I still don’t got a clue if we gon make it through the fire
To the limit, to the wall, you was kickin for a long time
Strong presence, strong convictions and a strong mind
Moving on in life like I’m Steven in that Dondai
Tice said we gon chop it up in the Rukongai
[Chorus: MiMiLock]
Oh, be my rest, be my fantasy
How can I move on without you next to me?
Opened up my wounds, and there’s no remedy
I’ll just numb the pain with fleeting melodies
[Outro: MiMiLock and Sufjan Stevens]
Grieved what I happened to grieve
My black shroud
I should've known better
Nothing can be changed
The past is still the past
The bridge to nowhere
I should've wrote a letter
Explaining what I feel
That empty feeling
