Riverside
1 The Road
I remember Natasha sayin\' that Andrew was a good kid
That\'s about the time that my imagination began to run more wild..
If..
Man, with my cousins I felt that free
I decided to smoke weed
\"Nothin\' that fixed couldn\'t be\"
Accordin\' to me a sin\'s not exactly what it seemed
Oh and please, excuse my baby cousin, Larry, Haneen
After a smoke cypher, Andrew had said \"I try to escape reality every chance I get\"
I hadn\'t felt it\'s effect
I, honest, had tough skin growin\' up but longed for a softer heart
Be careful with what you wish for because I broke down over the \"God\'s good\" part
Yea, I\'ve been guilt trippin\'
On MyFreeCams for nothin\' in return 15 K+ tippin\'
2 Dissapointments
Dissapointments don\'t shake you
Struggles don\'t break you
Your heart wants to take you
3 Still
I\'m tryina shower in the rain and rest beneath the stars
Let\'s set short term goals to reach our dreams even if they seem so far
You can\'t quit as long as still beatin\' is your heart
Even if you only got to the moon how special those memories are
4 Tan Rubber Bands
Pink clouds and blue skies
After dissapointment you may sigh
Your feelin\'s in your heart lie
Tan rubber bands get a bleached black tee tied
After heartbreak you may cry
Don\'t let that take away from the fact that you tried
5 I\'m Tryina
The seagulls flyin\' in the distance keep inspirin\' me
I see courage admirin\'ly
I\'m tryina be the moon\'s entirely
My deams keep goin\' the fire in me
6 Rest
It\'s dark out and the rains pourin\'
Take a break from your vision and ideas you\'ve been explorin\'
It got cold this winter, not warm out, at night nor in
Rest from everything you\'ve taken in and take more in
7 The Love
So much time spent out by the shore under the sunlight
The love of the goals you plan to reach matter even if your dreams comin\' true just might
What a sunburn so pink so bright
Overcomin\' obsticles and challenges are just proof you\'re reachin\' higher heights
8 Your Aspirations
If you take a look out into the world, you can see such a wild meadow
As long as you keep tryin\' your aspirations with failure you have met no
That winter breeze blows and it gets cold
The goin\' may get tough but remainin\' innocent you\'ll have kept gold
9 It Hasn\'t Been
The Bronx Bombers on my back
Kids with beefs drawin\' bats
It hasn\'t been all that bad
I have fond memories of bein\' out playin\' catch..
Atleast I have that
10 Passion and Romance
The sun is dawnin\' on the road
Passion and romance unfolds
As much as you have to give don\'t forget what you expirience told
We\'re on journeys with paths unknown
Some reach their destination young, some old and others don\'t
It\'s not about gettin\' somewhere, it\'s about on the way makin\' the most
11 The Watchtower
Embryos and fluids
More sez smoke than a Buddhist
Not such a bad idea have the nudists
Never has Alicia Silverstone looked so clueless
12 The Fall
A bright sun comes out with its heat
Then a cool breeze blows
Nana\'s place on Howe ave
Frosted Flakes
Pink and purple beaded bracelets
They say that time\'s money but really I\'m just tryina waste away
13 August
16 years old shoutin\' and screamin\'
A head full of dreams dreamin\'
The sun beamin\'
Sweat off of skin steamin\'
14 \'08
Peers all smokin\' weed
Talks about how fun it\'d be
Just turnin\' 16
Google then sneak
About the 10th session later, lit deemed
Gettin hooked a bit seems
Somewhere to smoke, not too but
quietly
Bein\' out on the street
15 Paradise
A pretty much harmless said drug
Hooked, assaulted over and again, fed up
Acceptin, im bein a pothead, much
A bowl, blunts instead of
I see, all jersey beach water wet, sun
Get drawn, lines in the sand
Lit\'s a couple tenth\'s of a gram
16 Lost
There\'s the bridge, to the right
Just over a hill, a cold winter 3rd Ward night
It\'s dark but a bit lit
A snow storm with an inch
Not too many but just a few people on their way
Not too late
On such a lost path
All that\'s left behind\'s so sad
17 Anime
Iriko dashi in the air from a miso soup steam
On a table\'s unsweetened green tea
Black wave curl locks shag on pale skin
Black, a bit round and square frames tipped over half shut brown eye\'s lids
A light grey hoodie and burgundy joggers transition from Osaka to skater fit
18 The Berin\' Strait
Your skin\'s got tanned more than a bit beige
Past this time before we\'ve stayed
It\'s already dark
A mess my room and head are
I\'m just layin\' down in bed
The air conditioner\'s to the coldest set
My phone plays music that I\'m listenin\' to on my chest
This heart pumps the sqwak\'s of seagulls at sundown but you could feel the stress
Then as well, the smallests of moments spent\'ll carry on in our steps
A couple of flashbacks stuck of what you had said
I reach for the chilled water and receive a notification of 1 of your texts
We met the loneliest of nights in a cold winter
Those summer vibes have been \'er
She\'s a girl just like you but brown
Ever findin\' her I\'m not sure of in my small town
