Growing apart (from everything)


Where are we going, why are we slowing, down
Where are you going, we should be growing, now

Smoke to it niggah, smoke to it niggah

Where are we going, we should be slowing, down
Where are you going, we should be growing, now

That's what she said to me, the place I use to call home, is just a bed to me
Where we don't even sleep, neighbors can't hear a weep
Meanwhile I'm in these streets with everybody, I'm trying to get it, and she knows they got me
I watch her feelings watch me, as they staring with the saddest eyes the loneliness
Look each other in the face and barely blink, I try to make it right but the pear ran out of ink
So if my letters don't reach you, I hope these lyrics in sync

Where are we going, why are we slowing, down
Where are you going, we should be growing, now

That's what it said to me, but the place I call ambition is now dead to me
Gone and forgotten, I'm off track like Dale Earnhardt, my liver rotten
Alcoholic trippin', fucking bad bitches, and they got bad intentions
Club night guys endorse, balling out, but im about to drop the bar, I'm calling out for help
My engineer, called told me to come to the studio I wanted to tell him,,. naah

Where are we going, why are we slowing, down
Where are you going, we should be growing, now

That's what he said to me, but the place we call heaven is unfair to me
Only 144 can go, 7 billion on planet earth today, is there something I don't know
I know to follow him, rather following people, or follow vanity
Cus that means I'm following evil, guess following I'm following evil
I should follow cathedral, blessings all I need, but live like I don't need you

Where are we going, why are we slowing, down
Where are you going, we should be growing, now

So in conclusion, we all seem to stumble, planning our own demise
Forgetting the big picture and making it wallet size
So to what's important in my life, I apologize, I promise to stay faithful, focus and sanctify
We all get distracted; the question is would you bounce back, or bounce backwards
Would you not know how to act, or take actions, its just part of life
If your vision is impaired, you probably lose it all tonight

I'm tryin' to vision life, how to get it right, but my visions so blurry
Trying to slow it down, faithful to the ground, but we're always in a hurry, now
And if I could, make this world spin a little slower then I would
And we could grow a little closer, I think we're getting a little closer, I think we're getting closer

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
