Substance Songtext
von MPH

The sunrise sobered me up
And I stumbled upon my mates
In a minute of lucky passing
The day of the best night
Of course, they fucking did

Lost in smoke and laces
This concrete building held me up for a few hours
Tomorrow′s problems are becoming a reality again
But for a second
And just for a second
I had a moment of serenity

This night will live of me forever
First time up, but I'll be a repeat customer
Eyes as wide as the night′s sky
We're just kids
You were young once


Every time I hear this loop
Nostalgia hits me like a ton of bricks
From the rooftop to the high-rises
To the carcasses of empty warehouses
For a moment everything felt okay
And you can never take that away
I'll never forget you
Yeah, yeah

Mates come and go, but these stories remain
Every generation finds themselves in the same place
We′re all just trying to escape
Whether you′re running from work, love, friends, or family
Just know you're not alone

There′s always that one place you can call home
It might not be the prettiest, but it has a heart of gold
And it'll always keep beating
It′s real when it has meaning
It's that culture, it′s that feeling
And I'll never forget you
Yeah, yeah
Forget our lives
I just wanna feel alive
Close your eyes, hold your mates
I'm beaming with a smile on my face
