TIMELESS VIBES

Timeless vibes on my Spotify,  
Reminding me how time thus flies.  
Nostalgic memories I can’t condone—  
Over the years, I’ve always felt alone.  

When life was simple and my mind was free,  
Now I’m nothing, a nobody, like a dead man walking me.  
Walk me back through time when everything was right—  
No more sadness, no more stress, no more tears at night.  

Friends who died spend nights staring at the sky.  
Mind is empty, soul is dark, ain’t no more envy.  
Dot my ‘I’ and cross my ‘T’, surely life goes on—  
Back then, four years ago, my mind was so damn heavy.  

All these worries and pain can’t buy me a gun.  
Shot my past, but I missed—now I’m on the run.  
It’s been going on for years, scared to face my fears,  
Drowning in silence, buried in tears.  

Timeless vibes, but my clock feels broken.  
Smiles in the mirror, but they’re only tokens.  
I play each track like a voice from the grave—  
Memories I couldn’t keep, the ones I couldn’t save.  

Still, I rewind, hoping to find peace,  
A moment, a song, where the chaos ceased.
