hope ur ok

[00:13.43] I knew a boy, once when I was small
[00:16.74] A towhead blond with eyes of salt
[00:19.90] He played the drum in the marching band
[00:26.08] His parents cared more about the Bible
[00:29.24] Than being good to their own child
[00:32.29] He wore long sleeves 'cause of his dad
[00:37.53] And somehow, we fell out of touch
[00:43.08] Hope he took his bad deal and made a royal flush
[00:49.61] Don't know if I'll see you again someday
[00:55.16] But if you're out there
[01:00.35] I hope that you're okay
[01:04.91]
[01:15.16] My middle school friend grew up alone
[01:18.43] She raised her brothers on her own
[01:21.25] Her parents hated who she loved
[01:27.43] She couldn't wait to go to college
[01:30.92] She was tired 'cause she was brought into a world
[01:35.24] Where family was merely blood
[01:38.60] Does she know how proud I am she was created
[01:44.70] With the courage to unlearn all of their hatred?
[01:51.11] We don't talk much, but I just gotta say
[01:57.42] I miss you
[02:01.63] And I hope that you're okay
[02:04.39] Address the letters to the holes in my butterfly wings
[02:10.58] Nothing's forever, nothing's as good as it seems
[02:16.67] And when the clouds won't iron out
[02:19.75] And the monsters creep into your house
[02:22.80] And every door is hard to close
[02:27.33] Well, I hope you know how proud I am you were created
[02:34.04] With the courage to unlearn all of their hatred
[02:40.17] But, God, I hope that you're happier today
[02:46.29] 'Cause I love you
[02:50.98] And I hope that you're okay
[02:53.43]
