SWV2 'This is life' - Nede feat. Hendo (Cool Poindexter)

from The Suicide Watch v2 by Fallen Pony Music - The Suicide Watch Project

/

about

19 yo Wangaratta hip hop artists Nede, approached Heidi after hearing SWV1. This poignant and in hindsight, cathartic story is about his friend Kel who completed suicide without warning, when they were in Year 9 (at 15 years of age).

lyrics

Letter to Kel

"Hey bro,
Kinda wishing you were still here,
Since you left brains a haze,
Hasn't been clear,
It was just straight out the blue, true
But Come to think about it that fake message from the cops off your phone,
Ahh I thought that was a joke I thought that was your sense of humour,
I didn't know you was depressed no rumours,
Man I miss you,
I don't care if it's lame man I wish I could kiss you,
Cam, channy, josh, dill, and everyone else got through,
But it was hard,
Ripped apart our hearts,
And that was just the start,
I avoided them all,
And slowly we all drifted apart I felt,
Was a living hell,
Really a living hell,
I couldn't open up,
I closed shut,
Now I'm hoping bud,
Your story can save everyone."


Yeah alright I get it,
Life's hard but the passed past dont regret it,
If ya make a mistake don't fret it,
Just exempt it,
The lights only green for a second,
And shit leaves us with a thousand questions,
Maybe not knowing the answers a blessing,
Time will fly by if you keep stressing,
If you got a problem flex it,
Rip it apart if ya can't mend it,
don't dwell on thought you'll just gonna stress it,
It's a message, it's a heritage,
That everyone should know,
One instant to change a thousand lives,
One instant to change a thousand minds, that's all it takes,
No matter how hard it is life ain't going away,
You've got one,
One! Get it?
Please man don't end up like kel,
It's hell,
That day angels fell,
I was with him that day and he seemed uppish,
trust me,
Imma touch the country,
At the end of the day we are lucky,
Who said life was gonna be fluffy?


This is life.
Go all in cos you can't live it twice
It sucks
Don't give up
Just get up
This life
This is for kel and everyone else who
gave the ultimate sacrifice
They still in our hearts tonight
This is life
Go all in coz you can't live it twice
This is life
This is for Kel and everyone else who
made the ultimate sacrifice.
