Where Are They Now by SwizZz Lyrics
[Hook]
Looking expected, but its not what you heard
I know you cling to every word, like I ain't made for this era
Shit, the thought is absurd
If you can't see it now, hold tight for the verse
Judging me at my worst, I even knew it then
Still sorting the chaos that we grew up in
If we were solid you know I'm not one to root against
Suffering for us all, you probably could use a friend
But where are they now?
[Verse 1]
Check out the style, in the makings of something great
I might be here for a while
We might be here for a good time and as long as it lasts
There ain't a feeling that's too low that I'm not willing to bask
Or not willing to feel
Nurtured by the pain that didn't get revealed
Until everyone I knew split
Taking the good from the old, apply it to the new shit
All by myself feeling like a whole cruise ship
Petty infatuations, don't get me involved
Talking to J behind the glass, forgetting up on these walls
Shit, now I'm talking to the world by spilling raps in a song
Brother you know I always got you, and it's hard to hold on
Or it hurts to let go
Won't be long before they act like they know
Mention my name in conversations and consider me close
See it surface in their feed and get intrigued by posts
Could've used 'em back then, but fuck it, lets go
[Hook]
Looking expected, but its not what you heard
I know you cling to every word, like I ain't made for this era
Shit, the thought is absurd
If you can't see it now, hold tight for the verse
Judging me at my worst, I even knew it then
Still sorting the chaos that we grew up in
If we were solid you know I'm not one to root against
Suffering for us all, you probably could use a friend
But where are they now?
[Verse 2]
Stuck in denial
There's something off in that photo, I don't believe in your smile
You know the happiness your yearning isn't measured by vows
Thinking that doubting what you had was worth a trip down the aisle
But I hope it works out, and you don't live through a child
Guess we're bounded by our decisions, I'm still out running wild
Assume I'm making you proud, if not then I will
Co-created Funk Volume, now I'm after a deal, no stopping it still
Go ahead and capture the wind
The conclusion is on the brink, it might flare up on a whim
Notice the tension getting thicker, light refusing to dim
Recording sessions in the morning, finished off in the gym
Chalk this up as a win, for how far that we've come
But the journey continues on, the real work never is done
Keep obsessing on who I was and relish what I've become
Got familiar with all the lies left on the tip of your tongue
Here it comes, yup
[Hook]
Looking expected, but its not what you heard

Still sorting the chaos that we grew up in
If we were solid you know I'm not one to root against
