The winter New York sky Is an awful pretty place Till the clouds start turning colors And the city burst in flames Hot soup sitting on the stove Cold hearts after we’ve been traveling The windows full of flashbacks And the flashbacks trying to get us The winter New York sky Is an awful pretty place Till the clouds start turning colors And the city burst in flames Hot soup sitting on the stove Cold hearts after we’ve been traveling The windows full of flashbacks And the flashbacks trying to get us We both been in this town too damn long To not jump at the sight of explosion And we both been walking down this road quite alone To not be carrying cases of emotions So when December silence becomes Event Horizon And we’ve barely started unpacking our bags It’s visions of our twenties 9/11 memories And it’s wondering if this is an attack Before there was a feed to check and checks were waiting tables We were making our mistakes over the counter On the same streets the same spots and the same surroundings But never bounded into one another It took a sister making brother husband their to need discover The DJ to hold it down think to suggest it A couple hundred miles from the borough we both nest in Lay the mountain vista where we connected But underneath the Gotham sky we’ve been crossing paths Since before that September never forgetting I harken back to that day and the classroom I was teaching When the airwaves started filling up with screaming And somehow find comfort in the fact she was just across the river Watching the same harrowing scene from a distance There’s something in the scars that becomes that of the body And what’s body is for sure to carry on So when the Thursday clouds erupted the familiar sight was gutting And we leapt into each other’s arms The winter New York sky Is an awful pretty place Till the clouds start turning colors And the city burst in flames Hot soup sitting on the stove Cold hearts after we’ve been traveling The windows full of flashbacks And the flashbacks might just get us It’s a miracle we made it to our ages and these stages Then collided under Virgo constellations With all of our damaged spaces expectations and sensations Inhibitions information predilections predications Complications family traumas stuff with daddy stuff with momma Suffering then finding ways to get down to the bottom Maybe with a sponsor or maybe some sort of combo Of cosmic wondering poetry writing mic in a palm The point is it ends up one And bet that shit don’t happen with the wave of a magic wand Some days are like Babylon some days it’s the garden calm Don’t change that we till and build not a factory but a farm Growing something from nothing while the organic substance Takes root in the bed we nightly lay and love in And f*ck if I’m not tough with all my personal struggles That teach me when I confront them In the meantime I can be bugging As I’m seeking and I’m sulking to be perceived that I’m bumming About us That couldn't be further from the truth But then something out of nothing becomes something That we’re stuck with from an adolescent umbrage or an auntie or an uncle And we’ve both got newish nephews and a slew of sleeping devils The way we work to slay them is amazing on a level That I never felt or saw Like that September morn When the memory is raw Tonight I could hold her heart
