hello, goodbye.

Part one, growing pains

Sometimes the hardest thing to do is the honest thing

Closing up a chapter, welcome new possibilities

I been cleaning up the old, yeah, just like the autumn leaves

I'm ready for what's next, you gotta move when you got a dream

Some people don't like change, avoiding every bit of it, treat it like a migraine

Don't wanna treat the roots, it's like they rather just hide pain

I will never get it, man, that sounds like a mind game, a whole other timeframe

Yeah, growing pains from what I carrying

I need to lessen the load, the need of letting you go, yeah

For me to see all my growth, it's okay to say goodbye, and let the season just go

When you've been friends through the years, I know that things can be weird

When the friendship is no longer here

But when you get together, only hearing the same old songs

Same old beat, sometimes you move on

It ain't beef, this maturity, we do what we gotta do

Though our roles are ending, don't mean I won't applaud for you

This ain't "I'll battle you, battle me," let's make new capacity

Thankful for the memories we got in the gallery

Hellos are easy

Hellos are easy, you don't even have to try

But not when you're leaving

The end of a season, learning how to say goodbye

Hello, goodbye, hello, goodbye

Learning how to say goodbye

Hello, goodbye, hello, goodbye

Seasons come and go

Winter, spring, summer, fall

Part two, goodbyes are never easy

And this one's for the friends that we lost too soon

Tear-stained eyes when I heard that you left the room

Man, that year was a wreck

The first time that I met grief for the first time, what a reality check

But I'm grateful for that weekend we linked in ATL

Chopped it up for a second, I let you meet Michelle

Not even months later, get a call that you're gone

I'm still praying for your family strong, you live on

Yeah, cherish the things that you have

What's in your grasp could be the thing, that some to others may lack

Every laugh, every second, the good and the bad

'Cause every breath is like a gift that we just get to unwrap

Hellos are easy

Hellos are easy, you don't even have to try

Not when you're leaving

The end of a season, learning how to say goodbye

Hello, goodbye, hello, goodbye

Learning how to say goodbye

Hello, goodbye, hello, hello

Hello, goodbye

Hello, goodbye, hello, goodbye

Hello, goodbye, yeah, yeah

Hello, goodbye, hello, hello
