Next level lyrical insight is a moment away.
Lyrical Analysis of...
Goodbye
- Year 7, Bondi beach, where I met you,
- Wish I made a better effort to respect you
- I hope you didn't think I was trying to reject you
- as a mate, I was shy, no disrespect dude.
- Became I good mate to me for a number of years,
- I type this shit up so gutted, face running with tears.
- Remember Coogee nights getting drunk off cheap beers,
- 16 and 15 having fun with our peers.
- Unique as they came, you earned a brotherly claim,
- Never met a guy as patient and so loved as you Jae
- You leaving here left me fucked in the brain with a punnet of pain,
- With the realisation that I'd never see you again.
- I know I'm lacking in what is essentially lyrical precision
- But this is what grief does, like a surgical incision
- in the heart, hurts for birthdays, Christmas, this shit in opinion
- is just bogus bruv, I know this, I know that you're still living.
- Denial is a strong thing, and this is wishful thinking,
- But I hope I'll see your lanky ass again up in my kitchen
- sipping absinthe like a spastic out of plastic, man I miss it.
- And the swans are going well in the comp, hope we win it.
- I know this shit just makes me laugh, remember when you lost it
- in a pool game when your black ball slid into the pocket,
- Snapped the pool cue on the table, barely able to contain myself,
- Laughed until I cried, then you smiled, knew I was blazed as hell.
- Youd always hit the gym, but then you never had a health diet.
- I wish I said something, instead I kept myself quiet.
- Not to intrude on your business was my intention,
- But now I'm full of regretment, self resentment and questions,
- Surely it's something a good mate could have mentioned,
- But i didn't and i guilt myself with irrational reflections.
- Your presence was precious and your laughter was endless.
- And please know I respect this, happy memories you left us.
- We'll love you to our deaths and hold your memory with pride,
- My 50th rhyme dedicated to a close friend who never left our sides
- And I'll proudly call you my mate for the rest of my life.
- 24 months have passed and I miss you....goodbye <3
