[Verse 1 Harakiri, Jr.] It starts here And it ends here Do we continue Reject the real truth? Most of us wont even speak to each other again Do I still text you, pretend like were so close friends I say so close because we were so close Then drifted apart, no go, I suppose Close friends, crushes and acquaintances Brand trends, quick rushes, future waitresses We stand at the dock, tide is coming in Some people close the door as I was comin in Im runnin in I have been Once loved, never hated, never fittin in This is highschool, you clique and sit and send Group messages blip to exclusive friends Oh sorry its an inside joke? How do I flirt, facebook, click and poke? We select, connect, text and check Have our lives always been such a digital wreck? Is this time analogically wrong or correct? Is this lyrical analogy a bit of a stretch? Is repressing insecurity the new dopeness? If so let me wear this old mask that says Be cool, be in, be funny Get sex, get status, get money Find yourself, dont be manufactured Like yourself before your life is fractured Love the moment but remember the past You know our time together went so fast uh [Chorus Molly Gentry] X2 When we sail away from here Away from home Away from here When we sail away from here Goodbye, no fear We cry, no tears [Verse 2 Harakiri, Jr.] East coast rapper, got a west coast girlfriend California girls, takin over the nation Small talk life, boring people, lame classes Athlete by day, but I never was the fastest Yeah. Guess Thats just how it goes Tennessee weather, promises, never snows Stuck in a boring life I gotta keep it interesting So I reinvent myself by tryna rap and paint and sing Soul searching, tryna find a deeper life Talk is big but it comes at a bigger price What I want aint always true I gotta do whats right What I do aint always cool, its an internal fight So I stay up at night To study, read, and type Stay on track in school, man I gotta go to college Hallways full of future inmates who acting lawless Title I, IB school, so I guess were flawless Nah were not flawless But were diverse In a good way In a hood way Black dudes, white dudes, and dat GSA Cant be or say what I really wanna say Aint nothin goes without being ridiculed But were friends and these annoyances are minuscule Wanna chase my dreams but Oh well I am in a school Wanna find some friends a little deeper, swimming pool Shallow? Nah Gallo? Hah Goodtimes, Goodbye, GOOD rhymes yah Kanye hayahh Freshman waah Babies of the building, we done saw Everything here and back to the sunsphere Livin with the wisdom, filled with a deeper fear One too many risks, one too many beers Live by the motto, wear the mask, hide the tears [Chorus Molly Gentry] When we sail away from here Away from home Away from here When we sail away from here Goodbye, no fear We cry, no tears The James you know, based on a true story The people we know soon fade like glory All that we can do is live and love it while it happens All that you can do is honor us and chase your passion I really wanted you all to understand what the end of this stage in out lives means to me I started out high school thinking I had it all figured out, but pretty much nothing went the way I wanted, in the best way possible After finally embracing my identity and proudly wearing who I am on my sleeve everyday, I made a lot of amazing friends who have made these years probably the best of my life so far Despite this, we graduate and enjoy our last summer, and then it is over for a lot of us. We may never even see each other again So what is the point in these fleeting relationships? A question I struggled with for a while, and now I know There doesnt have to be a point. The point is we were us. Our togetherness and unmatched spectacularity leaves us all with a fulfillment for this stage in our lives Now it is time to sail away and go our separate paths, but not to forget. Never to forget
