Stratosphere (feat. Dan Slater)

And I bin floating around up in the stratosphere, way up here
The air is getting thinner
I can't breathe hurry up and make it better
We'll talk it out and maybe make some dinner
Probably scream it out cause she was never a good listener
She was always telling her friends that I made her cry
But that was a lie, you were smothered in pride
Always getting what you want to fill the hole thats inside
And I was making you smile but you kept running telling friends
It was always about a fight
So don't pretend your innocence in my defence
I was thinking of you and what our future holds
And while she was fucking around
And blowing some smoke and knowing full well what she was doing to folks
But told a different story though
And belligerence see's as belligerence does
I was in love, for her it wasn't enough
She was always on the cusp of attacking my self worth
But what she really hates is her and just ran out of turns
Let the memories burn

We could stand strong
We will crash and burn
Thats who we are, who we are
Now we found our wings
Flying through the stars
So carry on, carry on

But let me tell you bout her other side
She was a beautiful painting of a better part of life
That I want in my mind, that I want in my heart, that I want by my side
The swing in her step, The stars in her eyes
She was crazy, fuckin amazing like a child
Simple and mild
Breath like the ocean and tear of the Nile
And she did what she could with everything she was given
Which wasn't much
She kept on running, gunning for what she believed in
She could be laying in the dirt in the bottom of the mud
It's never fucking enough so reach for the sky
Then asks herself why
She's only ever scraping by
And while I'm drawing in rye she tried to better her life
So tell me is that right
And maybe I'm the problem
I fuckin got some
If you've got a hundred minutes I'll try to list them off son
I try to run away and just escapee
But I keep on coming back every single day like I'm a waste away

We could stand strong
We will crash and burn
Thats who we are, who we are
Now we found our wings
Flying through the stars
So carry on, carry on
