[Verse 1] Scrollin’ through the old phone, names I can’t erase Voicemails still play, but I can’t see their face My mama and my best friend A, same time gone Since then I been quiet, tryin’ to carry on Friends still in my phone, but they ain’t alive Reading back messages, tryin’ just to survive Mirror don’t lie—I see who I used to be They showed up for me, but I left ‘em empty [Chorus] I shook my father, told him “wake up” But he was gone… man, that broke us Grandpa caught fire tryin’ to light our way Fixin’ up a ride for the next race day Now I carry this pain, deep in my spine Words I never said still stuck in time It’s all so unfinished… But I’ll finish it in mine [Verse 2] We had one more poker night after that fall I tried to say sorry—he just nodded, that’s all He knew what I meant, didn’t need to speak But the next day came, and he left me weak Grandma looked lost in a house full of ghosts Dad spent her check just tryin’ to cope I blamed him drunk, but it came from hurt Now I live with regret I can’t reverse [Chorus] I shook my father, told him “wake up” But he was gone… man, that broke us Grandpa caught fire tryin’ to light our way Fixin’ up a ride for the next race day Now I carry this pain, deep in my spine Words I never said still stuck in time It’s all so unfinished… But I’ll finish it in mine [Bridge] Solitude hit when the calls stopped cold But I never gave what I should’ve before Took a look in the mirror, saw what was true Now I give what I owe to the ones I blew through [Final Hook] Got ghosts in my phone, but they ain’t gone I’m here to make right what I did wrong One day I’ll see ‘em—not in a dream But for now, I’m the fire they passed to me It’s all so unfinished… But I’m living for the ones I miss And I’ll carry it strong ‘Til I’m home—where they belong
