Blue Moon - Caskey

Beats by Choc

Yeah, 8:28, that’s my, that’s my birthday, too

Yeah

Rest in peace, granny

I hope when you lookin' down on me, you seein' a man in me

Sometimes I look in the mirror

And don’t know how I made it this far with my sanity

Ironic, I’m scared of these heights

But through all my life, I’m buildin' this canopy

Just to escape people

People are lookin' at me like I got some more clarity

Yeah, look at me

Twenty-eight and finally goin' to therapy

Lately, I look at the light

And feel like my life is some type of parody

God really playin' jokes on me

He bring the wins so close

And then they turn out like my old homies

When it’s tough, they get ghost

Ghost stories

The trouble always show up when the hope formin'

Thank God I done weathered so many storms

I’m ready with no warnin'

Now I got a lil fame

The beef on the way, so I keep it George Foreman

Tryna wake up to my girlfriend for some more mornings

Yeah, I don’t wanna die

But death sure got it out for me

Wish I could’ve stilled my life

Through some type of alchemy

Instead, I’m twenty-three floors up

At the Palms suite, stuck on the balcony

If I drop to the flo', who’s lookin' out for me?

Who gon' make sure my mom and my girl straight

Make sure that they Rollies got pearl face?

Who gon' make sure my nephew ain’t gotta stress

And don’t end up seein' the world late?

Who gon' make sure my sister got her a tribe

Someone who really there by her side?

All she gotta do is send me a text

There ain’t no question if I’ma ride

I don’t wanna die too soon

Life’s hard, but it’s good once a blue moon

I don’t wanna die too soon

Life’s hard, but it’s good once a blue moon

That’s because it’s just the way it has to be

It’s been a long time comin', they’re comin' 'round for me

I just up the speed, yeah, high velocity

Out here, tryin' to free

Myself from the chains

That constantly keep me from my elevation and change

I waited in vain for someone to save me

And pick me up outta the rain

What’s keepin' me sane?

Nothin' but lookin' back, seein' how far we done came

And all of these vices I know that we gained

And look at how hard we refrained

I put my blood on the mic when I speak

I pour the blood from my veins

That’s why I hit different

Than all of these industry rappers who all bein' made

By somebody else in the studio, days befo'

This is really the shit all of you waitin' fo'

Man, I gotta make my way in the do'

Man, I got somethin' to say, for real

I never made a song that made the mills

Except for every feature that I ever did

Tryna only be a rapper and pay the bills

But shout out them rappers that kept it alive

I hope they all thrive

And when my feature price too high

You never could buy it again

That ain’t a jab, it’s just facts

I’ma run it to the max

I’ma be a best man at a weddin' this year

Shout out my brother, Dax

Shit inspired me to be a husband and a father

Man, I gotta get my money longer

Man, I gotta live long enough

To see my first son have a daughter

I don’t wanna die too soon

Life’s hard, but it’s good once a blue moon

I don’t wanna die too soon

Life’s hard, but it’s good once a blue moon

That’s because it’s just the way it has to be

It’s been a long time comin', they’re comin' 'round for me

I just up the speed, yeah, high velocity

Out here, tryin' to free

I don’t wanna die

But death sure got it out for me

Wish I could’ve stilled my life

Through some type of alchemy

Instead, I’m twenty-three floors up

At the Palms suite, stuck on the balcony

If I drop to the flo', who’s lookin' out for me?
