BLACKSTAR Lyrics

Son, Remember I was younger used to look up and I'd see the stars

Now I'm hearing sirens when I look up and I the boys

Remember I was younger used to dream about it livin' large

Now I'm in my car praying that a nigga see tomorrow

Remember I was younger used to wake up and hear my alarm

Now I wake up and I check the boards trynna up my score

Remember I was younger used to dream about it livin' large

Now I'm in my car praying that a nigga see tomorrow

My heart shattered

My heart shattered time and time again

There's fine line between life and death and I gotta walk that line again

I stopped trynna read others minds and I started looking at mine within

Yeah, There's shit that I lost and can't ever find again

And it hurts sometimes

'Cause everybody got that line of friends

But there's one that's so close to you

And it kills me I lost mine again

Monopoly on my mental it's a board game I'm trynna win

Life could be so simple if a nigga act we can minus him

Court cases as a minor kid, yeah

Shit look like a anvil the way dirty cops make the iron flip

Its crazy how they change up these new niggas put the i in flip

It made me, it raised me, I came up from the lion's den

And I still see it, yeah shadows of my past life

Fucks wit me eternally I can't remember last night

Look me in my eyes I'm feeling sad I

Wanna save the day but they gon' paint me as the bad guy

Remember I was younger used to look up and I'd see the stars

Now I'm hearing sirens when I look up and I the boys

Remember I was younger used to dream about it livin' large

Now I'm in my car praying that a nigga see tomorrow
