Street Lights from Sunderland by Nine Six Kid
Written after another 21st three weeks after the one that inspired Garden. Very similar situation played out at this party expect this time the birthday boy was drunk as fuck and during his speech he mentioned how he's had his stomach pumped 6 times in the last 3 years because he's been so depressed. I asked him how he was going and he told me he was fine all that shit is behind him. So I left this party at 2:45am and I dropped my friend off at home (the same friend I was talking to at the party that inspired Garden keep up!) and I was hanging out to hear Garden all night so I put that shit on and drove real slow down his street. I was tired as fuck and all the street lights passed by me just like moments. Life's just not fair

Lyrics
I’m just trying to get my head right/Looking up at the street lights/Late nights brodie drowning in his sleep we ain’t cry/We grown now doggy can’t fight father time/Ten toes firm in the dirt we been hurting/Evade the grass that’s where the serpents be lurking/Don’t try to conversant I’m always working/Sternum caved in the waters are murky/I’m still searching for something remaining imperfect/Can you see the scratches on the surface/Turn my casket to ashes in the furnace/What will you be thinking when I’m burning/Surfing the web learning stuff that serves no purpose/Worthless, find hope in Earl Sweatshirt verses/Birthed too early expel too many curses when I speak/Read the instructions before I leave Earth/Dysphoria seeps in when the birds chirp/Circle back to the bed inertia we revert/I swerve any and all confrontation/The smile’s been faked reversing the fate and the way/Things were left off, kid please step off/X marks the spot/Crushed heart can’t find the pieces I wander the darkness/I wonder what sparked it, why you replied in the first place/Deformed shape post haste rest at the bottom of the lake/You remember when we were just kids/Do you think we could have been more than friends/If you ain’t happy and you wanna leave you probably should/Trekking through the woods/We were just some Kids in America/Stargazing on the hood of your mom’s car/I’ll always be by your side on god/Word is bond our heartbeats matching up/You said if I was there you’d snatch me up/Autumn leaves black tea bike riding to nowhere
