Verse 1:
Yo, we started out young, just a couple of kids,
Dreams in our pockets, we believed we could live,
But life took a turn, as we hustled and ran,
Friends turned to shadows, lost their way to the plan.
Chorus:
In the fast lane, we were fly, no doubt,
But the drugs caught them, had 'em twisted about,
Lost in the night, where the stars don’t shine,
Life experience teachin’ me to draw the line.
Verse 2:
I saw my boy Slim, a king with a crown,
Now he’s stuck in the gutter, can’t even get down,
Used to laugh at our dreams, now it’s all turned sour,
Caught in the storm, wasted all of his power.
Chorus:
In the fast lane, we were fly, no doubt,
But the drugs caught them, had 'em twisted about,
Lost in the night, where the stars don’t shine,
Life experience teachin’ me to draw the line.
Verse 3:
Then there’s my girl Jay, we were tight, best friends,
But love turned to heartbreak, and it never quite ends,
Thought we had the world, but our love was a mess,
Family drama exploded, left us both in distress.
Chorus:
In the fast lane, we were fly, no doubt,
But the drugs caught them, had 'em twisted about,
Lost in the night, where the stars don’t shine,
Life experience teachin’ me to draw the line.
Bridge:
Lessons learned hard, the truth breaks your heart,
Watching friends fall apart, tearing dreams from the start,
Family ties in a knot, can’t find what’s right,
But I’m fighting my way, searching for the light.
Verse 4:
Now I’m holdin’ on tight, to the best of my crew,
Tryin’ to lift ‘em up, that’s just what I do,
Tellin’ them stories, ain’t no shame in my game,
Lessons from the past, ain’t never gonna be the same.
Chorus:
In the fast lane, we were fly, no doubt,
But the drugs caught them, had 'em twisted about,
Lost in the night, where the stars don’t shine,
Life experience teachin’ me to draw the line.
Outro:
So here’s to the struggle, and the stories we share,
We rise and we fall, but I know you’ll be there,
Keep your head high, don’t let the dark times win,
Life’s a journey, my friend, let the healing begin.
