Sky Keeps Getting Wider

I’ve been driving with the windows

all the way down just to feel

how the blue above the city

makes the heavy stuff seem real

The guitars are sounding open

like they’re breathing in the view

and the soft rap in my chest now

keeps on circling back to you

And the sky keeps getting wider

every mile a little lighter

every thought I tried to bury

drifts away like loose reminders

If you hear me in the distance

know the truth is getting brighter

yeah the sky keeps getting wider

and my heart keeps pulling higher

You text me something simple

like you’re trying not to care

but the breeze behind your words, girl

tells me you were almost there

The 808 is gentle

like it’s learning how to float

and the memories hit softly

like a message that I wrote

And the sky keeps getting wider

every mile a little lighter

every thought I tried to bury

drifts away like loose reminders

If you hear me in the distance

know the truth is getting brighter

yeah the sky keeps getting wider

and my heart keeps pulling higher

I see your face in side streets

in reflections passing quick

like a picture caught in motion

mixed with sunlight, warm and slick

I sing the lines that calm me

then I rap the ones that sting

and the chorus falls around me

like a kite still on its string

And the sky keeps getting wider

every mile a little lighter

every thought I tried to bury

drifts away like loose reminders

If you hear me in the distance

know the truth is getting brighter

yeah the sky keeps getting wider

and my heart keeps pulling higher

Let the wide-air keep expanding

let the moment stay this blue

every breeze that hits my shoulder

feels like something tied to you

And the sky keeps stretching outward

till the world turns something new

if tomorrow needs a reason

I’ll just breathe and follow through

’cause the blue-sky in this feeling

keeps reminding me of you.
