Felix (The boy who lived big) PSS

[Intro]
[funky horns blaring]
Every time I hear this kinda beat…
It takes me back to that hill, that house, that kid
Felix — the boy who lived big, and made me wanna live bigger
This ain’t shade. This is memory.

[Chorus]
He had it all, I had a view
Big house, big toys, that rich-man mood
TV glowing, four-wheeler zoom
I’d pedal uphill just to be in his room
He was wild, I was glued
To the life he lived, and the things he’d do
Now I’m older, still miss that kid
Yeah, Felix… you changed how I lived

[Verse 1]
Met him at eight, kid had it made
Three-story crib with a big arcade
Satellite TV in the 90s? What?
While I had static and channels that cut
Mini four-wheeler, gas-fueled ride
Pulled my bike up that hill like a king with pride
Played DOOM on a 486
While I was blowin' on carts just to get my fix
Final Fantasy, Resident Evil
His disc tray looked like a game cathedral
Summoned Bahamut, cast Knights of the Round
And I sat there stunned, jaw on the ground
He smoked me out — I said "not feelin' it"
We smoked again, then the laughter hit
Offspring played — “I'm fallin’!” I cracked
Laid out on his bed, felt the whole world snap

[Chorus]
He had it all, I had a view
Big house, big toys, that rich-man mood
Top floor sunroom, ice storm gloom
Cleared the branches with chainsaw moves
I wanted in, he let me through
Till life took him far, and I missed that dude
But I’m grateful, yeah no shame
Felix — you helped shape my name

[Verse 2]
Then his dad died right before parole
He knew deep down it wasn’t in control
Rumors, whispers, nobody spoke
But Felix felt it, and something broke
Moved to Standstead, still had space
But lost the glow in that kid's face
Had a girl, had a kid — then split
Never knew why, just saw him drift
Then the trip — LSD went wrong
Hospital room, he thought he was God
Chained to the bed, wild-eyed stare
I was just there, feeling unprepared
But he made it back, moved to the city
I followed years later, kinda gritty
He showed me streets, I was scared of trains
He laughed like, “Bro, this ain’t no chains.”

[Chorus]
He had it all, I had a view
Big plans, wild heart, high-value shoes
He said “one day, I’ll scoop you too”
In a shiny car like dreamers do
I looked up, never said it true
But man, Felix — I wanted to be like you
Now we’re ghosts, yeah, drifted apart
But I kept that fire you sparked in my heart

[Verse 3]
One night we gamed — Jericho vibes
Demons, end times, just like our lives
Beat it in one shot, passed the pad
Then he crashed at mine like it wasn’t bad
Week-long binge — my DVDs
Felt like brothers on a chillin’ spree
But then came weed and the split hit rough
He dissed my guy — I had to call that bluff
Said no, and the silence grew
After all those years — that’s how it flew?
We had trails in woods, army gear
Spied on workers from the brush so near
He pulled me uphill on that tiny quad
Like a rich kid king — I’d just nod
He lived large, I just chased
All that shine I could never taste

[Chorus]
He had it all, I had a view
But looking back now — I had it too
We had the spark, the late-night truth
The games, the laughs, the joy of youth
Felix — if you hear this tune
No shade, no hate, no need to assume
You were my friend, for better or worse
So I laid it down… in a G-funk verse

[Outro]
You weren’t just my neighbor…
You were my upgrade.
Still remember the horns in my head when you showed up.
Still hear ‘em now.
