Your Night
Your Night

We talked through the cold twilight northern sky
I see your shadow clearly
Freezing but I still felt warm
As your stories burned my inner beating muscle
My eyes received that H20 feeling but I held back
Just like you perceiving
That when I say live your life
your, your, your, your life
I mean live it like its yours
YOUR LIFE
Pero, you loose life, cause that parental fear
Got those mental nerves intertwined
Should u do it for mom because she didn�t make it?
Should u do it for pops because that�s his last wish?
HIS DREAM
his his, his life's dream?
Not your life mija!
Quit dying to make them proud
Because they and nothing you do
Can make them content to the point
That their pride for you is to the point of overflowing saturation
It is not a surprise that all 50,000 awards you received
Went without their recognition
But you still sit on the porch
As soon as the sky turns to a crisp twilight
And breathe in freedom
Then exhale frustration
Breathe in what you want
Exhale their dreams
As you hear a voice whispering in the nights air
Soo soft spokenly you answer
"
I'm livin in a nightmare
Full of mind anguish, physical pressure, hate, fear, pain, love, me, you.
Desert dry tears
Emotions have to be on strike
Cause I am the strong, remnant that
Daddy raised me to be 
No open wounds in public here
I hide when I bleed
I am screamin
About my, my, my f*cking life that is their dream
After I accepted you and all your imperfections
I sit down and let go!"

I seen her light up a smoke
Layback exhales and looks up at the street light
You live your, your, your life now nena
Keep on praying to the twilight
