Winter's Lament (Miami's Gone) (Produced by Lip Beats)

from Soon You'll Understand by B Hyphen

lyrics

Man, I really miss Miami
That first winter chill had to get me fore it hit me
That I'd rather have it sunny & breezy instead of shitty
But really yo, that winter depression is starting to hit me
So many what if and why dids, I don't know what to do
So many times I wanna kick my ass at 22
Look little nigga, don't do this and do that
Cause when you're 29, you won't like where ya at
Dirty ass bathrooms that I don't even own
My credit's shot to shit, still paying student loans
Can't even afford to heat my home up properly
Cause I'm saving this paycheck to pay rent on their property
Bullshit monopoly, I keep going to jail
Can't pass go, can't own shit, my paycheck's for sale
Oh well, to tell the tale, maybe it helps
To keep you from making the same mistakes yourself.

Man, I really miss Miami
Only there 3 days and it felt so heavenly
March it was 70, plus, it had me stuck
Lounging by the pool, giving cero fucks
Tough, another Dub Vee winter
Less sunlight to see and the regrets enter
Take up residence as the days get colder
Holding back positivity as they just smolder
Eats at you, relentless, Walking Dead shit
Ill predicament, bullshit you get sick with
Ya done quick, cause ain't no cure for it to lessen
Word to Joe Budden, welcome my friend depression
Worse impression, no manners, it don't care
Never discriminates, gets at anyone near
And it's clear that it's here for the long haul till spring
No sawed off could bring relief to the chaos it brings.

Man, I really miss Miami
Saw the ocean from the whip, helped restore my sanity
License plates called vanity, liquor stores twenty fo'
And malls full of women, beautiful women, fo' sho
I know, my Miami is a fantasy
Far from reality but I lived so casually
So care free, no stress for me
Then I left on three jet planes for the West V
And I'm here, 30 degrees, soul's listless
Barely paying bills, filling an Amazon wish list
Drinking on Tuesday 'stead of scheming to find a way
To make something of myself so my life's not a throwaway
Dark by 5 and it's darker inside
And my moment's still waiting to say I've arrived
Life would be much easier without these thoughts
But the top won't be the same without the bottom, so why not?
