i was able to fly

(专辑： dream emulator - 2023)

How come the only thing you ever do is run?
I can feel my cells dying
My reflexes are slowing down
Why would anyone squander so much talent?
Sure, I was really good back in the day
I mean, it never even occurred to me that there could be anybody better than me
Hell, I could return the ball with my eye closed, no problem
I was able to fly

I could jump up and touch the moon without so much as breaking a sweat
I didn't think it was miraculous 'cause it came so natural
Yeah, I wanted what you had with every fiber of my being
I copied your style, your paddle, your board, literally everything about you
But no matter how hard I tried I couldn't beat you
(Check it out, raw passionate youth right there
Why don't you get a room?)
Dude, everybody in our class
We all looked up to you
