*(Intro)

Yo, Kayan is here

*(CHORUS)

I remember the time, the time that we had,

I remember the things that used to make you mad,

And I wish if I could turn back the time,

And I wish if I wouldn't cry, every night,

I remember the time.

*(VERSE 1)

It has been 3 years since I last saw you,

Since then every day feels like deja vu.

Nineteen closing in like a debt I owe,

Age that locks the door you won’t go through.

Coffee this morning, I poured like you do,

Grounds overflowed, I froze in the brew.

Passenger seat still, window cracked low,

Drum on the wheel when the red light shows.

Point at the skyline, the stray by the curb,

You made the small shit feel like it served.

Future questions stack with no one to ask,

Interior rooms I never got past.

Your hands in my habits, they move on their own,

Steering my grip when the argument’s thrown.

Miss dad still hits when the filter runs long,

Halba, the silence just plays the same song.

*(CHORUS)

I remember the time, the time that we had,

I remember the things that used to make you mad.

And I wish I could rewind back the past,

And I wish that my tears would fucking last.

I remember the time.

*(VERSE 2)

you were everything to me, you had everything I need

with you i'm getting high, without smoking weed

I flip the passport, see your maiden name bleed,

Letters that don’t match the blood in my feed.

Sometimes I light one and you're back in the room

I miss you halba, halba from here to the moon

You said "halba" when love spilled too wide,

Now the word rattles the nights I can’t hide.

Still smell the cardamom stuck to your coat,

Still hear the curses you aimed at the vote.

I light the stove, let the water talk back,

Steam rises the same way your laugh used to crack.

*(BRIDGE)

Some nights I dial the old number just to hear it ring,

Hang up before the tone turns into anything.

Your shadow still fits in my driver’s seat crease,

I talk to it low so the engine won’t notice the peace.

Halba mistakes, halba nights left unsaid,

Halba mornings I wake reaching for threads.

Halba the love, halba the hole in my chest,

Halba the reason these verses won’t rest.

Miss dad still hits when the filter runs long,

Halba, the silence just plays the same song.

*(FINAL CHORUS)

I remember the time, the time that we had,

I remember the things that used to make you mad,

And I wish if I could turn back the time,

And I wish if I wouldn't cry, every night,

I remember the time.

*(Outro)

There is time to kill, there is time to chill

Time is money, and time will tell,

sunshine in heaven, or grill in hell

Oh yea, I remember very well.

Rest in piece
