Byron Henderson - CENEL’S ISLAND. lyrics
[Byron Henderson - CENEL’S ISLAND. lyrics]
Right, ride, right, ride
To the world, you may be one person
But to one person, you're the world
There's a better life for you
Three years sober and I must admit
It's a different feeling than
I ever expected my vision is clearer
There's no room for regret
I woke up feeling content
By all means could be better
But wouldn't even complain if you paid me to
Plenty of changes made
You swoopеd in at my worst
Too many days were saved to
Keep count of thеm all
Was counted out so much
But found another underdog in you to
Finally trust with my past life
I struggled with expression of my thoughts
These vices
Plus regressing mental health played a part
Taught myself to never settle
But I buried my past beneath the Earth
I was a rebel, yet never rediscovered myself
Forever in debt to you better in tune
Wish I could take that stress from you
The feelings I've felt trying
To right wrongs transferred like energy
Trauma lasts lifelong
In a world like this, who needs enemies
We're the same yet different in many ways
What a beautiful, but catastrophic symphony
Plagued by the ills of society
Either wither and fade or give your all just
To make it out by any means
Watching as you tussle with anxiety
I can hear the alarms that tell
Me where this is finna lead
Love, life, trust, fight
Memory lost from damage done
No preparation for what it's finna be
Some form of abuse in every direction
You wonder if it's a little too
Late to be running into peace
Blood suckers relentless, self-absorbed
Pretentious grew up with shape shifters
Turning into leeches
Then a snake in the grass hit you with poison
You asked for help
But it's almost like you were voiceless
How was such beauty birthed by ugliness
An outcast imprisoned, living without choices
Uh, careless as can be with
Such a gentle soul victimized plenty times
But the villains played victim
And somehow left you cast in the villain role
That's a plot twist
And so you're heated cause you're still
Left out in the cold
When the world is bigger than that
Room that you're locked in
Dreams shot down
They reside in between King and Pac
Sense you suffered enough to
Develop a mental block
I know they're boxed in
Cousins to the mattress under your back
Nightmares real enough to die
Taking your naps
Lied to enough to not believe the truth
So you deny all the good that I see in you
Stuck thinking bout everything that
You need to see
You see yourself like these white
Folks were seeing me
The peace in you brought out
By the peace in me
Your smile showed me that this is
Where I need to be
Gave your best, and got nothing back
How are you to be okay
And just run with that?
We used to talk about leaving
And never coming back
But now it's more like F life
I'm done with that
See it's strange that I love you just
As much as you hate yourself
When things go good, you berate yourself
The stress builds up, your mouth sealed shut
Cause seriously
They won't ever take your health
So I'm asking
What did I do to earn or deserve you
What made me good enough to
Essentially give the world to?
Was it the comfort?
Was it the fact you can be 100% of yourself
No judgement?
Was it the lack of stress around me?
Was it the trust?
Was it me paying attention to you?
Was it the love or what?
My future started three years ago
Saw many tears never was I not here
But even healers need to heal
And that was my Achilles heel
Every break ever forced upon
Us brought us closer
Dawn of a realization, I'm numb as can be
So how is it you're the only thing I feel
Unloose the noose being used as a leash
At least to have someone that
Is yours and is real
Same ways I saved you, you saved me
I praise you due to all
The jewels you gave me, OG
I was losing my mind, losing control
Swam for my life
When I hit the shore, I found a home
Followed the light cenel's Island
Know this world ain't the place to be
But I won't ever leave
Not here for you, I will never be
Heaven was never lost, made a way for me
Cenel's Island
And I'm trying to take the picture
But I'm I'm like this like I'm texting i
Take the picture and sound goes off laughs
No why are you covering my phone?
No why are you covering my phone?
No pictures
It's not a picture it's a video
Wha No videos! Laughs
Redrob eht ta em teem
To the world, you may be one person
But to one person, you're the world
There's a better life for you
Three years sober and I must admit
It's a different feeling than
