lost days lost nights by sharkey ocean grown OG
I was sleepin’ under bridges where the cold cut deep, Spokane had me spiralin’, I couldn’t even eat. Lost days, lost nights, just chasin’ that high, Wasn’t living, I was fading, I was damn near ready to die. But mama kept searchin’ for the son she remembered, Even when my eyes were gone and my soul was just embers. She prayed for a miracle, cried rivers for me, Held my picture in her hands sayin’ “God, set him free.” Now I’m standin’ in the sun where the palm trees sway, Venice waves hit my feet like they washing pain away. New breath in my lungs, new light in my eyes, Man, I really made it out — I survived my own demise. And I ain’t never goin’ back to that darkness behind me, Got angels in the front and the past right beside me. So when I look at this sky, wide open and blue, I whisper “Mama, I made it… guess your prayers came true.” --- (Hook – New) I came up from those Spokane nights, cold sidewalks and borrowed lights, Now I’m standin’ in a Venice sunrise, thank God for another life. The past tried to bury me, but I crawled back to the surface, Now I know every scar I got, yeah man, they all had purpose. Mama never gave up, even when I did, She saw a grown man when all I saw was a kid. So I’m livin’ for the love that saved me twice, From Spokane pain to this Venice paradise. --- (Soft Spoken / Bridge) Yeah, I remember what the bottom felt like. Now I’m waking up to ocean air instead of dope sickness. Healing takes time… But I ain’t alone this time.
