Lyrics

[Verse 1]

My light, my light, my shining star

Since you left, my world grew dark

I recall that afternoon

I went to see you right after school

[Verse 2]

My light, my light, my shining star

Since you left, my world grew dark

I recall that afternoon

I went to see you right after school

[Verse 3]

I never felt a pain quite like this

Memories make my eyesight drift into earth

Since you've passed, man, I still feel hurt

In times of need I swear it still feels worse

I'm just tryna escape

[Verse 4]

I never really prayed before

But see tonight I prayed

Hoping things would be the same

By the time I awake

But it wasn't the case

I can't believe it, gone too soon

You were still needed and had me heated

[Verse 5]

Like why you leave me?

Why did you go and give up so easy?

I know I'm selfish, I can't help it

But you since you left

The fam's been fighting over possessions

It had me stressing

I wish I had the balls to check 'em

[Verse 6]

My uncle told me that he never cried

Even when grandad fell and died

He spoke with pride when he said it

Ever since those words have been embedded

I tried to do the same

Until the day we had to close the casket

[Verse 7]

I couldn't hack it

Tears running down my jacket

In front of everybody

I ran to the bathroom, oh

[Verse 8]

I miss you, man

I need you

[Verse 9]

My light, my light, my shining star

Since you left, my world grew dark

I recall that afternoon

I went to see you right after school

[Verse 10]

My light, my light, my shining star

Since you left, my world grew dark

I recall that afternoon

I went to see you right after school

[Verse 11]

My heart pounding in my eardrums

It was the rhythm of fear

Suffer heartache and panic

You were right here

Don't tell me that you just vanished

I hope I never tied you down

[Verse 12]

If, if I, if I did, let me turn this rope to a hammock

So I could relax under the planets

Can you hear me?

When clouds form and it rains

I know it's you patting me on the back

To reduce the pain

[Verse 13]

If you ask how much I miss you

Could you count the grains of sand?

Imagine you here like Rufio and Peter Pan

I wanna scream at the higher power

Come down so I could fight you

I don't like you

[Verse 14]

If tears were a form of currency

Would you take it?

Use them to water the flowers

Or fill the lake

And see me and your grandsons

Telling stories from our scars

I'll never finish telling the world that you are

[Verse 15]

My light, my light, my shining star

Since you left, my world grew dark

I recall that afternoon

I went to see you right after school

[Verse 16]

My light, my light, my shining star

Since you left, my world grew dark

I recall that afternoon

I went to see you right after school
