Mac Pt. 2 (Forever Young) Lyrics

It was a pretty good day

I remember it like it was yesterday

It was warm and I wasn't at my best

But I was really trying

And I thought things would only get better unless

Unless I got some bad news that I'd feel deep in my chest

That day the music was off

But the silence was on

When I heard "Mac is gone"

I couldn't even cry

I just looked like I was dead inside

But I swear you could see the pain deep in my eyes

Oh the things I'd do to go back in time

Never thought I'd have to say goodbye

It must be a joke first of April?

No, September, seventh, twenty eighteen

I'm gonna remember this date, I have a feeling

Guess you were right when you said you'd sell nonbelievers to a temple

They bought me but I bought their ideas

That's what I thought lighting up those candles

And it still weighs heavy on my mental

Couldn't even be at your funeral

So I buried a letter

Covered up with flowers that I watered with my tears

But I hated nature

Cause what good is nature

If all it does is take the ones that matter

There's no words to describe how I felt

No words only screams

No words only tears

No witness of my distress

Only my car knows how loud

I screamed and I yelled

I admit I tried to numb it all

But how could I take the shit

That is the reason why you're gone

How could I stay alive if you couldn't

There's a thousand artists I'm listening to

So tell me why it had to be you?

A lot of time went by

Three years and a half cause yeah I'm counting the days now

I guess money can't buy happiness or time

But I never thought you'd run out of any of that

Now I feel like I got too much time

Too lucky to live the years you'll never live

Turning twenty-seven not happy about that fact

Cause I'm older than Mac

But who can understand that

Seems like every week you're in my dreams

The only place I can feel your presence near

I'm holding on to those dreams the best that I can

But I always wake up to a life that you're not in

Feeling like I lost a brother

They say you can't mourn a rapper

What if that rapper was more than that

Did more than anyone else did in your life

Made you bounce back from the floor

You were sitting on

When you cry at night

(Cry at night)

You will never be forgotten

I learned from the lessons you taught me

I hope that wherever you're at you can see it

I could never thank you enough for the things you did for me

And I carry you wherever I go

I know I'm obsessed and I can't let you go

And I know I spend way too much time on my bed crying

Way too much time replaying your saddest lyrics

And it hurts like hell

Some things you said I relate to so well

And I hate myself cause I closed my eyes

When you gave so many signs

I gave you a letter

All I talked about was me, how you influenced me

But I never ever took the time to write down

Quit those drugs or you will die

I try my best but just like everyone else I'm so selfish

It's not a lifestyle to be on drugs

It's a fucking disease

But I only learned that when it was too late

When it was nothing else to do but cry and ask God why

But none of these tears will ever bring you back

I can write a thousand songs

You'll never know how much I love you

Unless you're right above me, in that case I know you do

I guess you're frozen in time

It's been years but your face still looks the same

I'm gonna grow old wondering what you'd say at my age

But I finally understand

There's no way to bring you back

And I'm okay with that

You're probably better off where you at now

Just like you said, at least it don't gotta be no more

No more pain, no more sorrow, rest your head

I think I understand

Just like a circle you go back where you're from

The end of a life means the start of new one

Nowadays the silence is off

And your music is on

You'll always be in my heart

Forever young
