Dead Friends - Kirk Knight, NoNameGypsy, Thundercat

Every time I feel alive I think about dead friends

The rest is just dead to me

Sleeping couch to couch just to find a way in

Living on my own now

Living on my own now

Living on my own now

And the truth is over-ridiculed

Verdict never human, but something more spiritual

But put it through the physical

It’s enemies and animals and generalist Hannibals

And gotta be acceptables,

I never took the corners

I was way more diagonal

, corner power

With the power that he held in the streets so intangible

Look up to the kin, know the color of the skin

More like a correlation with the nature that’s within

Told everybody I was related to him

Big homie that is, blaze one up to this

I was in a battlefield with the neutralist grounds

He was born on the wrong side of the gun sound

Intentions, never knew, never seen him pull a trigger

But I knew when he came around he never show that figure

But the gang signs around him

Always gonna make him think of better ways of living life

Let me show this little nigga

Change directions, reach a popular view

Don’t be a knucklehead on Crooks Avenue

Don’t be like me, nigga, fight for your dreams

I know you do music that will bring your needs

Left my comfort zone for two years now

Working on career now

Then you heard news of the same child

Cause I’m around you, lost hope

But I made it possible, take your advice

Bro, I heard you paint well

Dope, don’t do the block, nigga, keep doing you

My outlet growing bigger, I support too

You did me a favor and I made the move

Now I’m a star, least I could do is just pay all my dues

News just in, another fallen angel

The world is so cruel, my heart turn in two

Every time I feel alive I think about dead friends

The rest is just dead to me

Sleeping couch to couch just to find a way in

Living on my own now, living on my own now

Living on my own now

Every time I feel alive I think about dead friends

The rest is just dead to me

Sleeping couch to couch just to find a way in

Living on my own now, living on my own now

Living on my own now

I was partially standin' beside him when they parted the Red Sea

See the blood on the hydrant and the leaves like 'Ye said

They dead, funeral, newspaper like a brand new obituary

Rapping my contemporaries, I ain’t gotta think about it

I dreamt about it;

what’s a demon to a ghetto now?

Move around, heard a couple shots in my solitude, hallelu

Went right past, that’s what God’ll do

They found nutritional value at the base of my conscious

It taste like peaches

, no nonsense

No Noname, no tickets for purchase

My market was marketing Gypsy for prophet or profit

Cause everybody speaks truth, believe in your words

Believe in yourself, the things we dream about

And let them feed you

Living on my own now

Living on my own now

Living on my own now

Living on my own now
