about
Wrote this after having a conversation with my buddy Justin Jones. We were chatting/venting about struggles we've been facing, including tough family related stuff. I said, "well brother, we're about halfway done." Didn't think much of it in the moment, but was reflecting on the conversation later. Decided there was a song there...
lyrics
VERSE I
got together, just to catch up and hang out
it had been way too long
used to kick it on the daily, but I don't know how
these days, gotta make plans 6 weeks out
PRE-CHORUS
ya never damn know how good life is going
'til those times are gone
CHORUS
my brother,
we're halfway done - that's if we're lucky
next half won't be as fun - lord knows we're gettin' old
every year that passes, we lose another few
rose colored glasses, turn a darker hue
halfway done, my brother, we're halfway done
...but we've had a good run
VERSE II
both turned 40 and it sounds so wrong
who knows if we'll get 4 decades more
talkin' 'bout old times, stupid things we've done
left so many memories in these songs
CHORUS
SOLO
PRE-CHORUS
ya never damn know how good life's going
'til those times are gone
but it's up to us to make sure
we finish our race strong
CHORUS
my brother,
we're halfway done - I'm feelin' like we're lucky
no longer young and dumb - silver strands worth more than gold
every year that passes, closer to the truth
bifocal glasses, give a clearer view
halfway done, my brother, we're halfway done
halfway done, my brother, we're halfway done
...we'll have another good run
