Maddie's Song

No matter how hard I try
I can't fight the feeling I get when I'm thinking about us
I cry
No matter how hard I try
Hey Mad, how you doing
How's Temple
Had to grab something from your room, hope that don't upset you
It upset me, it made me tear up
Looking at your bed and not seeing someone to cheer up
I know I been an ass, but that was out of love
I know that's old news, but had to clear it up
I'm missing my little sister
Tears in my eyes make it hard to see the picture, we all grown up
She went out to college, I should be moving out of the house to start a fam but I ain't Man enough
My number one fan, with unconditional love, she ain't give a damn if I was spitting it fast Enough
She just wanted to hear, she just wanted a song
It's my fault that it's taken this long, well
I'm proud of you, you proud of me
You finally got your own song but it's sad to sing

How'd we grow up so fast
You're out in college and I'm still home on my ass
Feels like I ain't seen you in a year or so
But it's only been a month
And now I'm here spilling my guts out in your very own song
I don't know why, why
It took me so long, you
Just wanted a song, but
It took me forever

Damn, weekends are crazy
It's real quiet without you and Kacie
I got the chimney packed with wood just in case we
Decide to hang out soon, shit I'll say please
You're still my best friend, that ain't changed yet
You know it never will, to hell with rain checks
You wanna hang, I got my key in the ignition
I ain't seen you in a minute, so I'm on my way to visit, yeah
I was watching home videos the other day
I don't know why but something possessed me to press play
It opened up to me you and Johanna singing
Got me thinking bout the good old days
Yeah I'd love to reminisce
But this shit really hits
I'm looking in your room, it's empty so I ball a fist
I'd call you sis
But I always feel like I'm interrupting
You're up to something, I just wanna tell you I love you
Wish I could hug you but I can't
Why do I feel it's too late
You consider your dorm back at Temple at your home, so whatcha call this place
This is your real home
But now you're real grown
Sometimes we still pull out a forth plate for dinner, we're waiting and then we're reminded
We ain't gonna see you walking down the steps
We're a mess so I guess

I don't know why, why
It took me so long, you
Just wanted a song, but
I never delivered on time
Just know I wanted to
Make the perfect song for you
Then I heard this instrumental
Let's see what my heart can do
