Nine Hours Away

(Verse 1)
Yo, it’s been a minute since we kicked it on your block
Same jokes, same late nights, always laughing ‘til we dropped
Now I’m stuck in this town, nine hours away from you
Everything feels empty, man, nothing feels true

I try to meet some people, but it’s just not the same
Nobody gets my jokes, nobody calls my name
I scroll through my phone, see your snap pop up
Man, I’d trade all this distance just to throw one back

(Chorus)
Bro, I miss you, can’t lie, it’s real
Nobody out here makes me feel how you make me feel
I’m out here lost, trying to find my way
But I can’t replace you, not nine hours away

(Verse 2)
Remember that time we stayed up til the sunrise?
Talked about everything, man, no secrets, no lies
Now I’m here alone, these streets don’t feel alive
Without my day-one, it’s just me tryna survive

I hit up the crew, but it’s never the same vibe
We could text all night, but it ain’t by your side
Man, I’d give anything to roll back in your lane
Laugh at dumb shit, just relieve the pain

(Chorus)
Bro, I miss you, can’t lie, it’s real
Nobody out here makes me feel how you make me feel
I’m out here lost, trying to find my way
But I can’t replace you, not nine hours away

(Bridge)
I know life moves, and we gotta grow
But some things, bro, you can’t just let go
I swear I try, I try to meet new friends
But they ain’t you, and this ain’t pretend

(Chorus / Outro)
Bro, I miss you, can’t lie, it’s real
Nobody out here makes me feel how you make me feel
I’m out here lost, trying to find my way
But I can’t replace you, not nine hours away

Yeah… nine hours away, bro
But you’re still in my heart every day
