mind over mattr - focus lyrics

we were friends in the cold dark winter
close even when the times got bitter
but spring forward to the present and we’re distant
not surprising since we both never persisted it
in the summer we would play outside
the world was ours for days, we lived for midnight rides
and when the autumn broke we still kept in touch
still talking, laughing, hanging out and such
but when the next winter came things took a sharp turn
when the flame that held you lost the strength to burn
it was a tragedy, the whole town grieved with you
young to lose her, made it hard to continue
yet you kept up your studies even though you were changed
the smell of weed smoke hung in the cold rain
a bong in the back of the car, an angry dad
months never changed that you lost the state of mind you had
your curiosity was not newfound
old friends became new friends that you could smoke around
now i heard you tripped acid and you robbed from a shop
you have potential for the uni, not for hauling by cops
i don’t know where your mind’s at, i’m not in your place
but i’m worried about you and i’m praying for grace
i know your life is not easy, need to deal with the pain
so let me show you to the cross where jesus knows you the same

it’s been a hard year brother, you’ve been beaten down and broken
and now that my heart’s wide open
all i pray is be true to yourself, and stay focused
your time’s not up brother, your spark is young, and your life, it
ain’t hopeless
so until the heartbreak’s over
all i pray is be true to yourself, and stay focused
focus

june 21st we finally hung out again
i asked about your life, how your living is
you said it’s been good, no more mary jane
your dad caught you too many times so now you vape
i asked about the shoplift rumors
and you admitted to business that had sketch maneuvers
i was shocked, and found it hard to see you in the same way
that i did as kids before you left the safeway
but i know inside you are the same kid
adventurous, and finding fun ways to live
you said you’re leaving behind this stuff in college
and for your sake i pray you maintain that, for solace
i love you brother i do, i do not hold a grudge
you’re only coping with life, for that i cannot judge
and if you’re listening, i leave you with this last line
i hope to see you again, in the next summertime
