Chacho

The sun is over our heads again

I’ll never know how many days it’s been

Since school went out and summer came in

Breaking into the pool at 3.a.m

And I know I swore id never turn eighteen

But as the days march on my words get hard to keep

I'll watch the summer sun set in my two hands,

And I'll hold it there forever, forever my friends.

The road ahead looks cold and lonely

Youth left us for dead

I came to shake the world with my words

To make some sense of all the years we spent

Bearing the weight of our own expectations

Dreams built with bare hands

Did I do all that I could do with my time

How can we say that we were unprepared

I made the best of all the chances given

But we grew up too fast

That place that we once knew is gone

We left it there nothing but a hole in the ground

It wasn’t where that we came from

It always felt like when that we called home

Those two years they made us who we are

They made us family and brought us this far

We ripped our skin so we can’t shake it off

We march on and tell our story’s by our scars

The road ahead looks cold and lonely

Youth left us for dead

I came to shake the world with my words

To make some sense of all the years we spent

Bearing the weight of our own expectations

Dreams built with bare hands

Did I do all that I could do with my time

How can we say that we were unprepared

I made the best of all the chances given

But we grew up too fast

Every day spent searching for nothing

A shred of respect I never seen

We meant nothing to no one, invisible me

Were the kids your parents pray you don’t grow up to be

Every day, they pray
