To My Friend Drewghis Red

Updated: May 12, 2023


Hey buddy

I'm sorry i left you behind

I guess I didn't have The Strength of The Kind


I guess i didn't give everything I had

To continue to make the lines in the sand


People's greed just kept washing it over


And I didn't want to stop

Until they got Sober


I didn't understand

Why they would come in with smiles


Hugs and laughs

Even though they traveled for miles


Brand new friends

Instruments in hand

Building a new life

Just by

Making a new jam


They would leave with a full mind

Like a full belly

Giggling like those colorful dudes

what's their names again?

oh yah.

The Teletubbies


Then I'd take a look to see if anyone cared.


An empty glass vase

Was all that was there


Only a few threw us a couple bucks

$100 in total

Over a period of 3 months


20+ people presented an opportunity

to grow and take part

In our new journey Only 2 contributed anything further

But they ended up taking that back

That's when i decided I couldn't go any further


I did my best

I promise I did.

I guess i won

i guess its time for I

to take a step back

and let others make a bid


You taught me so much

You taught me what people are all about


So for now it's so long

I'll miss you pal

You're my best friend

You made me realize

Humanity is fucked

without a doubt


Love,

Your Best Friend

Gnarles PS:

Nothing ever needs to end,


Sometimes you just need to stop

breath.

and give it another shot.


That's why your watch is in a circle.


It never ends.


It's just a number of ticks

until it finally goes tock.
