Mic Flo - Goodbye to My Youth

I say goodbye to my youth
Say goodbye to my youth
Say goodbye to my youth
My rhymes how I’m defining my truth
My escape when my minds in a loop say goodbye
I say goodbye to my youth
Sipping sparkling wine from a flute
Spitting fire in the booth
& take flight & uproot
Cuz I desire the truth
See my rhyme is the proof
Each moment I am shocked by life’s impermanence
But my mind state stays determinant
What’s right I defer to it
Then everything flies to a stop like a tourniquet
But every bit of life I learn from it
Seeking peace in the crease of defeats
Beats I seek when I speak to release
& as I thrive & strive to build myself a plan
Next moment feeling like I have become a helpless man, Damn
They weren’t lying life is topsy turvy
But I love every moment of this awesome journey
It’s all here, stop wanting now it’s all clear
Then the next moment no warning it is all fear
Say goodbye to self doubt and try to help myself out
Got tired of the stealth route, decide to put my wealth out
On fire scrolls, no longer can do what I am told
Tried to find control but letting go is how I find my soul
As I say goodbye to my youth
Say goodbye to my youth
Say goodbye to my youth
My rhymes how I’m defining my truth
My escape when my minds in a loop say goodbye
I say goodbye to my youth
Sipping sparkling wine from a flute
Spitting fire in the booth
& take flight & uproot
Cuz I desire the truth
See my rhyme is the proof
That goodbye to the past is hello to the present
Embrace it all even that which I know is unpleasant
Cuz one moment your King, next your the lowest of peasants
& it all doesn’t last so each moment is precious
So I try to enjoy not got lost in distraction
Truly connect with my family no false interaction
See avoiding facing fears had me lost in attraction
But playing it safe that doesn’t foster my passion
Don’t care about all the cars or high cost of some fashion
What’s your cause, what gets you lost in compassion
See I explored my flaws & how they’re causing what happened
& saw it was the thoughts that were causing my action
So I meditate and look deep in mind
& see I already had the peace I was seeking to find
No object will help me reach the true peak of sublime
Only wisdom so I heed the teachings of time
As I say goodbye to my youth
Say goodbye to my youth
Say goodbye to my youth
My rhymes how I’m defining my truth
My escape when my minds in a loop say goodbye
I say goodbye to my youth
Say goodbye to my youth
Say goodbye to my youth
My rhymes how I’m defining my truth
My escape when my minds in a loop say goodbye
Say goodbye to my youth
Say goodbye to my youth, say goodbye to my youth
I say goodbye to my youth
Say goodbye to my youth, say goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
I say goodbye
