sage (rapper) - jared's song lyrics

it was today, eight years ago to the day that we met
a couple of kids trying to find our way in the next, big step in our lives: leaving behind high school and trying to reckon with life
what the heck it’d be like in college
simultaneously crazy to think but amazing to meet everyone
on the day that i’d see for the first time, this shy little guy
practically writhing inside as he says hi, trying to hide
but shining a light that everyone would grow to adore
a soul that was pure love gentle and kind like no one before
and so full of more talent that you would ever admit
and the cleverest wit ever of which you would pour all into whatever you did
and never would anyone get any less than every little bit of love you were capable of at all time

will you be there when i call your name?
will you walk me through the darkness i roam?
and if i get lost will you call my name?
will you make sure i’m not alone?

4 years, 24 of us together, and you were the only one everyone knew
was capable of being nothing but selfless til your health was
something we all began to worry about cuz you felt this
burden upon yourself; responsibility for everyone else’s wellness
and the day you’d tell this to my face i failed just to relay the danger of leaving yourself helpless
but oh well, this life goes on right?
we graduated and hadn’t made it this far to sit back and wait
but as the days and weeks slowly became months and years
what once appeared hopeful would rust and fears of the future crept in
but we’d kept in touch you were in the same place
true, you never left it much
but we had each other to lean on when the darkness came
i just didn’t realize our darkness was not the same

will you be there when i call your name?
will you walk me through the darkness i roam?
and if i get lost will you call my name?
will you make sure i’m not alone?

it was today, a month ago to the day, that we had lunch together
much like every other way we’d lately relax
and see a movie or just talk about life
you walked in, i gave you a hug
and then off to the right of the restaurant
it was like an hour we sat
reminiscing together and chatting about what we had going on in our lives
but i thought it was like somehow it felt like you really didn’t want to talk about life
like there was really nothing you wanted to talk about
but just wanted to be there
and later as we’re walking out
you gave me a big hug, right there as we stood then looked me in my eye
and thanked me for being a good friend
i said “of course man… and hey you know that i’m always here if you want to talk….”
you said “thanks, i know”
and suddenly i felt a ton of things i was called to say
but instead i let you turn around and just walk away

will you call me when i call your name?
will you walk me through the darkness i roam?
and if i get lost will you call my name?
will you make sure i’m not alone?

it was today, a week ago to the day, that you left and honestly i don’t know what to say cuz in death
you’ve taken a part of my life with you
cuz there were quite a few who loved you dearly
but i was who was able to see what you needed and didn’t do it
could have taken the lead to help getting you into a position to turn your life around
cuz i know the kind of bout you’d been fighting is similar to the road i’ve been down
but i waited for you to ask for help cuz we’d made a pact to tell each other fast
when h-ll was closing in on us
but honestly you probably felt too far gone and now it’s too late
and there’s people it’s fallen hard on
and i’ma have to carry the weight
of my share of the blame for that every day for the rest of my life
and jared, i pray that i never make that mistake again
i love you, i hope you’re finally resting inside

i will be there when you call my name
i will walk you through the darkness you roam
and if you get lost then i call your name
i will make sure you’re not alone
