blizzard - letter to shifty lyrics

[intro]
yo, i was gonna send you this over the phone but your whatsapp ain’t working at the moment so i think this might be a better way to tell you how i feel
i don’t mean any offence

[verse]
dear shifty, it’s been a while since we kicked it
ain’t saw you for 3 years and you know that i’m home for a week every christmas
i would always text you weeks in advance, weeks later you’d tell me you’d missed it
then you’d apologise, beg for forgiveness
it’s not only mileage that causes distance
for years i was just shifty’s cousin, didn’t even care ’cause you made me proud
you were the focal point of the north west, i was inspired by the way you sound
i was in high school tryna keep my head down, your mixtape was getting played all round
you made grands off market streets selling mixtapes, you were getting famous now
you showed me love like you always do
when you had a gig you always brought me through
we was at the youth club and you had all your crew
i was terrified of recording tunes
you were gonna blow and i always knew
and you never helped me write, you forced me to
you took me under your wing and i saw how you did it and i wanted to be more like you
’09 was the worst year of my life ’cause you had that crash, never felt so low
mum said that you had one day left at the most but i didn’t wanna let you go
stood by your hospital bed with tears in my eyes, like i will not forget you bro
7 years p-ssed and the pain’s still real and i love you, i just wanna let you know
i’ve quit weed and i wish that you would too
’cause before the crash you were a good dude
and i won’t hate on you for choices you’ve made, i say it because i care and i love you
i remember you sending me shop
i recall when you liked red bull a lot
you’d hand me a fiver, i’d get two cans and a crisp, with the change i could get what i want
my second home was in m21, now we’re in london i text you a lot
but there’s been times where you knew i was just down the road and you didn’t message me once
and i was bitter, tried so hard to arrange a date and didn’t even get no response
and just at the second i considered blocking your number, my conscience tells me to stop
[interlude]
like, chill man, he’s your family, what you doing?
you’ve gotta take it for what it is…
he’s always gonna be there

[verse 2]
yo, here’s my letter, hope it finds you well
are things gonna change in the future? only time will tell
i miss what it used to be like, you know when you had that flat and we’d drink and play the tunes that we like
yeah, that was when you used to reply, what happened?
i can never hate on the fact that you brought me to my first show
and how you taught me all about flows
your guidance brought me a glimmer of hope
i came to check you once, left the house, i arrived in northenden and i phoned
you said you were not home but i saw you through the window
talking to your bros, you were drunk
i get that you just forgot, but i didn’t, i wanted to swtich so bad
i wanted to kick the door in and hit you just to see if you’d try and hit me back
but that’s in the past, i know sh-t’s changed since then but i really miss you lad
i’ve been resentful, i apologise but i dream of the day we can sit and chat
chill, recap, drink and laugh
i think i’m saying too much
but this is all coming from the heart warren, i wouldn’t make this up
and for the fact i’m speaking about you in the present tense, i’m so grateful, cuz
kind regards, your little bro brad, p.s we need to stay in touch
