Silence Lyrics - Slow Motion, Vol. 1 - Jarren Benton

Time is ticking, yeah, its ticking away 

I waited all my life to say 

My misery hates company 

I'm at a loss for words 

That's a first for me 

Silence is golden 

Go through the motions 

Silence is golden 

The same colour that my throne is

Yeah 

Damn can't believe that my homeboy dead 

I still feel shocked like I'm shot in the head 

I woke up and cried till my eyes turned red 

I wish it was a nightmare that I just had 

The coroner just put my nigga in a bodybag 

And his momma turned away cause she cannot witness that 

And I ain't know what to say 

When I was standing with your dad 

Only thing that I could think was "goddamn this is sad" 

Man we was just laughing on the weekend 

That was your goodbye, guess it just sinked in 

No words that I can jot with the ink pen 

To describe the way I feel, I guess I'm still grieving 

I wish that I could bring my nigga back 

He ain't even know how much he meant to me 

And that was wack 

That I couldn't even express it 

Till he laying on his back 

At his fucking funeral, when I ain't know how to react 

Yeah, we supposed to get rich together 

God had another plan for you that was better 

I said a prayer to your momma and your whole family 

Rest in peace dawg, you my homeboy forever 

Yeah, I know you living in the sky 

I wish I had a better way to tell my nigga bye 

Make sure you cherish every moment that you spend 

With your people, cause you never know 

Tomorrow they could die 

Uh, you believed in me homie 

Yeah, and for that I thank you 

I know you in a better place 

Prolly up in heaven cracking jokes with them angels 

Never be forgotten as I'm writing over violins 

I feel alone like I'm on my own island 

I think about my nigga every day 

Like I'm at a loss for words 

As I drown in the silence 

Photos 

Yeah 

Damn, there we go, not speaking again? 

Out the front door a nigga leaving again 

I rode around the city pissed off 

About some bullshit you said 

Make me feel like I ain't breathing again 

I get back, and we ain't talked to each other for like 2 days 

Damn girl, who pissed in your Kool Aid? 

I apologise a trillion times, make it a trillion-one 

But this time I'm too late 

Yeah, I guess you fed up with my shit 

To get through that cold heart I need an ice pick 

The look on your iris, so lifeless 

Remember them good times we had 

That was priceless? 

Damn, did I fuck you up that bad? 

You need space now, I guess I expect that 

I'm trying to break through them walls that you put up 

But I don't even know where your head at 

Yeah, I guess I better let her fly away 

Its hard to cope with the pain, I wanna die today 

I'll find a fucking hideaway to hibernate 

I sit and let this liquor wash the hurt 

Like a tidal wave 

And oh yeah, by the way 

If I could take all the hurt back I'd find a way 

I guess I'll pop another pill so I can sleep 

And let my brains cook 

Like I put my head inside a microwave 

Yeah, now I feel like a loser 

I knew all the wrong I was doing 

I would lose her 

Now I see the light, amen, hallelujah 

But I'm stuck in my shit 

Like I sit in cow manure 

World went crashing when I lost my co-pilot 

Ringing in my head, somebody turn off the sirens 

She ain't even talk to a nigga 

And it hurts so bad 

Now all I do is drown in your silence
