Floco Torres - Swan Song

I been sitting on this beat for like half a year
Index finger twisting round in my curly hair
I wanted something that would feel like a eulogy
A swan song a funeral for who I used to be
I didn't turn into the person that I thought I would
I'm better off because of it didn't follow the buzzards
I just prayed for something & now I'm seeing the benefit
We all love a good story I'm just tryna see the end of it

In grade school we were taught to face forward so I don't look back for folks that fronted on me
Escape the hawks I'm Al Horford I changed numbers
Yea pops ya song aint been living the same summers
Doing more for self & I'm less world
East coast nigga living in west world
Write my own narrative
Built my own character that's based off a true story
Loose glory and hardships
Somehow being present for all of it

And who we were
Seemed so long ago

These are confessions of a workaholic
I work to drink I drink to not think
My mind moves a mile a minute
My drive was never dependent on your car tips
Life's soundtrack on shuffle watch for card tricks
My poker face is impeccable
I look in the mirror and I believe it
The heart and the mind finally agreeing
This is happiness
I hope we all find the moment when we capture it

And who we were
Seemed so long ago
