Talk to You Again

Intro

(Ooh, ooh)

Yeah, yeah

I'm looking at these old photos on my phone, man

It still doesn't feel real, Jarad

Let's go

Verse 1

I remember sitting in the studio, just a kid from the West

Watching you record, man, you were better than the rest

You took me under your wing, showed me how to survive

In this crazy music world, you made me feel alive

Every late night session, laughing till the morning light

You told me I would make it, told me everything's alright

You were more than just a mentor, you were family to me

Helped me see the vision of who I was meant to be

Chorus

And I know without you, I wouldn't be standing right here!

You conquered all my doubts, you washed away every fear!

My idol, my brother, a friend until the very end

I'd give up all this fame just to talk to you again!

Yeah, I miss you, Juice, I really do

Every single step I take, I'm taking it for you

Verse 2

I still remember the first time that we hopped on a track

You freestyle for an hour, never looking back

The world saw a superstar with a generational mind

But I saw a golden heart, the rarest one you could find

We talked about the future, laughed about the crazy fans

You were mapping out the world, holding greatness in your hands

I remember the advice you gave when the pressure got too high

"Keep your head up, Laroi, you're meant to fly in the sky"

Now I'm playing sold-out arenas, looking at the crowd

And all I really want is just to make you proud!

I look at old videos of us fooling around on the plane

Behind the flashing lights, you always understood my pain

You were the only one who truly knew the weight of this crown

And you promised me you'd never let me fall or drown

Sometimes I sit in my room and I just start to cry!

Asking the universe why you had to die!

You left a void in this world that nobody can fill

They think I'm doing fine but the pain is so real!

Told me to stay away from the fake people and the lies!

You were fighting your own demons but you protected mine!

Chorus

And I know without you, I wouldn't be standing right here!

You conquered all my doubts, you washed away every fear!

My idol, my brother, a friend until the very end

I'd give up all this fame just to talk to you again!

Yeah, I miss you, Juice, I really do

Every single step I take, I'm taking it for you

Verse 3

They say time heals everything, but it's been years and it still hurts

I find myself looking for your voice inside my verses

I was just a teenage dreamer when you gave me a shot

Brought me out on stages that I never thought I'd rock

You gave a kid from Australia a chance to live a dream

Showed me that the world ain't as lonely as it seems

I remember the hotel lobbies, the late-night fast food runs

Two kids chasing the sun, having nothing but fun

You passed the torch to me, told me it was my time

But it feels so heavy climbing without you on the line!

I do this for the legacy, the 999 for life

You showed me how to turn the darkness into light

I carry your name everywhere that I go

The greatest to ever do it, and the world will always know

You're the reason I'm alive, the reason that I sing!

Without you by my side, I don't care about a thing!

I'm shouting out to heaven, can you hear me right now?!

I'm trying to hold it together, trying to make you proud!

I remember the last text you sent, told me that you loved me

Now I'm staring at the screen while the rain pours above me!

I swear to God I would've stopped you if I knew that day in Chicago

Would be the last time I'd see my brother, my hero!

I'm screaming at the top of my lungs, why did you leave?!

I'm choking on my tears, man, it's so hard to breathe yeah!

Chorus

And I know without you, I wouldn't be standing right here!

You conquered all my doubts, you washed away every fear!

My idol, my brother, a friend until the very end

I'd give up all this fame just to talk to you again!

Yeah, I miss you, Juice, I really do

Every single step I take, I'm taking it for you

Outro

Yeah, taking it for you

Can you hear me shouting for you?!

I'm never gonna let your name die, Jarad

999 forever, that's a promise

(Ooh, ooh)

I love you, big bro

I miss you so much man

Mmm, yeah

Peace, bro...
