Rapping over Rainy Lenny from the Tonkatsu DJ Agetarou OST.

lyrics

I remember back when I was just a kid
Struggled to make connections, yet somehow I always did
Manage to have one friend, every house I lived in
But then we would move away, never hear from them again
Every one meant the world to me
But I was so used to leaving, I would never think to reach
Out to see how they turned out, clear out any doubt
That they didn't even stop to think of me now
And old habits they be hard to break
Even after a decade living in the same place
I've been letting others fade away, and I can't say
I've done my part to make it happen any other way
Even people that I know online
Some I start to wonder if they're even still alive
I'm twenty-five now, and I've got a lot ahead
So to everyone I've ever loved, alive or dead:
I miss you

Everything is always bound to fade
The steady march of time it takes us all away
I'm ready to embrace what I know is my fate
I promise everyone I won't forget your face
I been displaced enough times to know my brain tries
To move you to the back of my mind, for the time being
And I'd be blind if said I wasn't seeing
How moving has become my very mode of thinking

I've been in one space long enough to perfect it
Been at one pace too long to accept it
Now I gotta run towards the evening sun
And find fun in new places I never expected
If I can't stay with anyone, I'll go to everyone
Live out the fleeting greetings and have fun
Cherish each and every meeting, but move on
Always to the next scene, to sing the next song
It may seem wrong to some, but it's how I work
Until the day I may change and find a new purpose
Define a new compass to follow in life
But until then, I'll keep to what I feel is right
I hope we meet again before you pass
That the memories of times we spent together will last
Every fleeting vision trapped in my distant past
Is what guides the mast of this ship you passed
In the night
Put up one light
I'll raise one too
A toast to you
