in the end

Song about growing up and time moving fast- unmixed unmastered, rough demo vocal
Lyrics:
It’s a late night 
Been gettin dark at 5:30 so I wind down early and I 
Recognize 
That maybe things aint moving the way I thought they’d move and in my head I find no peace I’m reminiscing for the days when 
Nothin really mattered yet everything seemed to matter that’s the way it was in those days… yea
I wish I knew what I knew now, 
life gets harder when you’re older its a new crowd, 
everyones a critic, half my friends are acidic they stick their tongues in my water while im just tryna drink it 
I miss the days when the homies were real, 
aint no worries in the world except if my bad dreams were deals? 
Sometimes I think if I could go back I would go back, is it near?

And if I had an opportunity to turn the clock back 
Would I take it all back with me? 
I sit alone and I wonder if could go back 
Just to have some more time to be free 
I wish I knew those days, they would move so fast and would fly so far away from me
If I could go back for a minute,
Would I do it all over again the same way?

Same Way
