BILL:

The Garden of Eden gave my niece her name but the camouflage to snakes in the same breath and the seasons change but my beliefs stay in my heart like evergreens and the concrete city steps
When it comes to the south side alley ways

I could give you a detailed map
way faster than I could ever think of the name of the streets that they intersect I could tell you who painted a piece along the train tracks faster than any piece at the met

I keep my head clean
the sunset gets me higher than anything that I ever sniffed
I could either spread my wings or get buried six feet deep in loneliness
But it’s a test
this is all I see I don’t believe in anything I didn’t dream of as a kid

and Your either real or not so I don’t even know what the fuck the realest is
The Narcotics task force was our biggest fear for years and they finally kicked my brothers door in but I was long gone since county prison and the four different rehabs that I was in
I Saw him walking down liberty avenue said now he’s just waiting for sentencing
so I’ve just been filling sentences with sentiments
and getting intimate with darkness It took 10 years dealing with depression
in and 3 years trying to be myself again

But we got off our hands and knees like when we were kids and they ran my pockets and beat my ass but they made sure to make me stand back up before they left me there
I’ve been sinning since my first pair of vans you wouldn’t have been anywhere that I’ve been
falling off on Percocet in a trance I couldn’t even lift my eyelids
Somehow I made it out of this fentanyl epidemic like
Surviving the movie kids without HIV
all the days my mom prayed
made me think when I looked at what God did

But I promise now that you’ll hear me say I love you before I leave you more
All these dead friends in my contacts
My iphones turning into an ouija board

Scroll through my camera roll it took me back to 2015 and I saw how far we came thank God

I’m gona tell you the story of how I even made it over at all
