(Aweh) It's your boy Dollar One...
Just listen, man. (Eish)
The day I die, don't tell them I lost a battle
Don't say I fell behind, don't say I ran out of time
I was just a man caught in the hustle's shadow
Just trying to find the light, just trying to make it right
I wasn't weak, I was just carrying the weight of a thousand storms
Trying to keep the flame alive while the winter forms.
Tell them I got tired, yeah, I got tired
Tired of smiling with a broken soul, playing the part
Tired of saying 'I'm okay' while I was falling apart
Yeah, Dollar One got tired, let the truth be heard
I was leaving long before I disappeared.
And when you stand around my grave, quiet and cold
Saying 'We never saw the signs,' let the story unfold
You saw the silence, you just called it seeking attention
You saw the drift, you just kept up the tension
Maplewood my home, town gears I got you
Even in the ground, my spirit stays true.
Tell them I got tired, yeah, I got tired
Tired of smiling with a broken soul, playing the part
Tired of saying 'I'm okay' while I was falling apart
Yeah, Dollar One got tired, let the truth be heard
I was leaving long before I disappeared.
So leave one flower, not because you miss me
Not because you want to kiss me or wish you knew me
But because you finally notice, look at the ghost
I was disappearing right in front of those I loved the most
(Yebo, it's deep, man)
Don't cry for the struggle, don't cry for the pain
Just understand the silence inside of the rain
I gave my heart to the streets, I gave my soul to the grind
Leaving all the broken pieces of my mind behind
Dollar One, forever in the Maplewood air
I was here, did you really care?
Tell them I got tired, yeah, I got tired
Tired of smiling with a broken soul, playing the part
Tired of saying 'I'm okay' while I was falling apart
Yeah, Dollar One got tired, let the truth be heard
I was leaving long before I disappeared.
I was leaving long before I was gone.
Just tired. (Sharp sharp)
Rest now. (Asambe)
Dollar One, fading out.
