Stars Still Burn

Yeah… the sky looks different tonight (yeah)

I’m still here…

I been losing sleep again, smoking just to float (yeah)

Pouring something dark just to quiet my throat

Everything around me feels distant lately

But I keep moving, trying to figure out what made me (I know)

Sometimes I reach out but nobody’s really there

Phone lights up and I just let it ring in the air

Same thoughts keep circling, same nights on repeat

I’m used to the static, I roll with the heat (fuck)

Mama still worries but I tell her I’m good

Even when I’m cold and I’m rolling through the hood

I don’t stress like I used to, I just light one more

What else am I supposed to do when I’m stuck in this war? (real shit)

That girl’s so beautiful, she glows like the stars

But I’m just a falling light drifting through the dark

The stars keep burning even when the clouds roll through

They got their own fire, I got mine too

I’m falling apart but I’m still holding on

Hoping one day I’ll shine just as strong (yeah)

The stars keep burning even when the clouds roll through

They got their own fire, I got mine too

I’m falling apart but I’m still holding on

Hoping one day I’ll shine just as strong

This music’s the only thing keeping me breathing (real shit)

When the high wears off and the thoughts start repeating

I know I’m not perfect, I know I got flaws

But I’m building something quiet while I’m lost in the fog

I did this alone, never asked for a hand

That’s why I let the phone ring when it’s getting out of hand

Problems and old memories, I leave ‘em behind

Right now I’m just focused on clearing my mind

Even when I catch myself thinking about her eyes burning like the stars

I still keep pushing, mile after mile in the dark (I know)

The stars keep burning even when the clouds roll through (yeah yeah)

They got their own fire, I got mine too

I’m falling apart but I’m still holding on

Hoping one day I’ll shine just as strong (yeah)

The stars keep burning even when the clouds roll through

They got their own fire, I got mine too...

The stars keep burning… (yeah)

I’m still holding on… (I know)

Hoping one day… (fuck)

I’ll shine just as strong… (fading)

Stars still glowing… (yeah)

Even when I’m falling slow…

I’m still trying…

It’s okay…
