We off the bench now
December's up and at 'em like the snowflakes on your shoulders
And my corner's only tighter, getting closer
Up to daybreak, getting older, getting bolder
Every phrase on every note
Rumpelstiltskin - every line that's woven's golden
No more bullshit, moving past it
Going brick by brick
And we swinging, no comparison, so don't mind this
I exceeded what they said when I went through it on the first one
Now I got shows lined up for months and matter fact just got a new one
My blocked list is getting longer, got no time for you phonies
Go to school and make espresso, music, sheep while I'm dozing
And the current died a little while I broke for the summer
They surprised when I came back and had a knack to be honest
To be honest, vision's really never ever been clearer
I'm selling out The Rave to thousands in the crowd in my mirror
No backup so, for now, I only gotta go harder
I'm yelling this for all the world shoutout to Mac and my Momma
Yeah
Summer's gone and leaves have fallen
I just wish I could be back
If you'd remember last December
Like I do, you'd long for that too
(It's the thoughts of December)

If you'd remember last December

Like I do, you'd long for that too
I sit aside too often, hide my pride too often
Trynna be more up and front and not disguise my problems
Like I wanna open eyes to you and what I'm really feeling
Even while I tend to cover with lack of good excuses
Spilling what I can when I get it, momentary happiness
But being vulnerable is unideal and scares me back again
My sorrow's getting deeper and concern is ever growing
Want to always be the stopper in a door that's always open for you
Conversations, conversations, always say the wrong things
In the conversations, I'm mistaken, words are taken wrong ways
Lead to fights and rolling eyes, I'm upset and you are too
Apologizing to each other, tend the fire til it's through
Extinguished
Killing time procrastination, off to wrap a bandage
Over things I'm not for healing, over things I'm overreacting
I could write a million verses over things I'm 'posed to have em
In the bag and it's a pattern in the thoughts from last December
Yeah
Summer's gone and leaves have fallen
I just wish I could be back
If you'd remember last December
Like I do, you'd long for that too

You learn a lot in twelve months when you decide to reflect
Like how the people who're you people aren't gon pull to the end
But that's a concept that I think I've spent too much time addressing
And some people aren't supposed to be there more than a second
But live and learn is what they say and I just go with the motions
I try to watch on how much time I spend for them when I know it
And know it takes a minute to remove the years of the memories
Even more so when you get reduced to another accessory
On their belt
And they only want to wear it when it looks good
Only fit's their outfit to impress the eyes of the onlookers
Flex and not appreciate what's adding on to their "best side"
Can't appreciate or thank me, I brought you to meet Tech N9ne
Every opportunity that'd arise, a good word for you
And when nobody else was aside you, we still were for you
And when you'd need a shoulder to cry, we'd be there hurt with you
You must've had some dust on your lens, we didn't deserve it fool
Dreams we said we had, there was nothing that we couldn't do
A million different chances, I did everything I could for you
So did Erik, so did Shaun, and so did Chris and Rachel too
A jab at all of us but my wins are what I'm jamming to
Summer's gone and leaves have fallen
I just wish I could be back
If you'd remember last December
Like I do, you'd long for that too
