    These are the lyrics to my new song on my myspace. The recorded song is basically a rough demo once i find somebody to sing the chorus for me i'll record the final version anyway be sure to check the song out if u read this.

    Verse 1:
    been a couple months since you been gone
    just lettin you know our pact is still strong
    i been stayin outta' trouble don't get me wrong
    i'm stronger now i'm not just stringing along
    now of course not everythins been all that great
    but perfection ain't somethin in everybodys fate
    bro thats somethin to which u can relate
    so, since u can't i promise 2 clean up ur slate
    sometimes i remember the mistakes u made
    just to make sure i wasn't the one who paid
    u was always there to break the wave
    that would pull ashore and make its way
    to the cold and compressed part of my head
    u was bold i was impressed by ur lack of dread
    even though it's been a while since u left
    still seems ur around even after ur death
    i'm just feelin like i'm braver and bolder
    instead of puttin em in that bag over ur shoulder
    u left em with me so i'm the new holder
    i promise i won't just let them blow over
    since u left i got a new perception of things
    of the flow of the wind and the coldness it brings
    its a chill that only temporarily sings
    no reason to worry as it arbitrarily strings
    a line with memories that are just so relentless
    makin it seem the sins of the past are just endless
    but i learned instead of just becoming senseless
    you gotta get up an seek out your repentance
    sometimes i think and it just feels strange
    how all of a sudden my thinking could change
    the change i guess was from both you and her
    so now i can look at myself without seein a blur

    Chorus:
    though you are not here
    i move on with no more fear
    no more of that crashing sound
    of me fallin on the ground
    i tie up the peices
    as the wind just releases
    these memories in my brain
    which lay claim to your name

    Verse 2:
    I guess at first u weren't the best role model
    but now look thanks 4 keepin me away from the bottle
    you was half the reason that i found the throttle
    to make it so i was able to just startle
    the cold part of my strange composure
    that would always just seem to blow over
    the darkness would start reelin in
    my soul yet still i'd hide what i was feelin
    even though my lies would start peelin
    from my head but now its just so appealing
    to be able to speak in this rhythm and rhyme
    and get myself up outta the grime
    u told me once to just get up and climb
    out of this hole with the shadows constantly laughin
    so i did, i found a way out through this rappin
    now i'm not alwas worried abt whats next to happen
    i know that somehow walkin around with me is your essence
    making me full aware of its guiding presence
    as i sit here and write out every single sentence
    i got in my mind, i got the grief but i end this
    through these lyrics no more feelin cold inside
    yea i did cry, admittin that won't hurt my pride
    you was more than a friend u was an older bro
    i just hope you shared that feelin befor u had to go
    and even though ur gone i just hope that you know
    i'll be alright cuz i have her to keep my mentallity
    just stable in some way no more gravity
    thats pushin at 10 times its normal capacity
    its like shes a sheild that makes sure i don't have any
    more of that pain that was constantly stabbin me
    this change in me was from u and from her
    so now i can look at myself without seein a blur
