Byron Henderson - DEEP END. lyrics
[Byron Henderson - DEEP END. lyrics]
How you living and still dead
Just a bystander in your own life (own life)
A bystander in your own life (own life)
A bystander in your own life, uhhh
Lost in the world, you're hopeless
Ain't come from the money
But stayed for you, Okay
Drowning and you need focus
You'll never be high enough
To jump these obstacles, No way
Death on my line, don't call back
Spoke on it when I rapped
All you did was laugh at me
So if I ever make it back
Don't you ask for me i ain't with the
Man, look
Can’t nobody come for me i mean
I’m too stressed for all
This middle school gossip
Suckers ain’t too confident
Jump to conclusions like y’all do models
I see delusion in blue checks
But you follow the leader that follows you
Depending on who follows
Y’all are looking like Seattle
You ain’t catch that
Don’t tell me I’m the hardest
I’m just Harden with the step back
I talk about my losses because often I was
Lost in what you call a minor setback
I mean
I pushed people away due to my problems
The same dang problems left my late
Best friend Rina hanging like Sadam
If you don’t see the terror in that
Let me know how you stomach
That plate of dust
They’re throwing shade at my shadow
Strange fruit
I’ll probably hang from the gallows
If memories ain’t enough
Ain’t you the same as me
A flame they can’t touch
I only hurt who I’m close
To, so till I recover, I can’t trust
Tell me who gon ride, dawg
Who gon ride when the well wishes run dry
Dawg i don't have a clue as to
Who's really on this side
But relationships sink and everybody's
Got to die, Dawg
What am I to do besides tell
You that your vibe's off
Running round chasing vanity and your desires
All the I don’t bend or break
Talk, we know that’s a lie, Dawg
When they’re shooting shots, no
Horse, just lives, Dawg
Tell me who survives y’all
Looking for a way out
To lie with you, they'd lie for you
Ride for you, die for you
Who love you like I love you?
All them putting morality to the side for you
Be on that auction block when
It's time for you? Not me
I’ll never hustle for a necklace
I just want to know who’s down
For me when it’s hectic
Deep breath, knee to elbow, chin in chest
Guess I’m going off the deep end dawg
And I accept it
You can judge me if you feel so inclined to
But don't expect a response to your lies
Already wasting your breath
No reason to waste mine too you mention me
You've already met your demise
You're worried bout blue lives
You're probably sick with that swine flu
I see so many blue faces
Yet so many blue faces on people trying
To decipher whose race they’ve been running
My trigger finger is itchy, that’s a copout
You wonder who’s racist
Until they’re saying cop now
They’ll come through and Jenga
Your whole block
I’ll just let the pen bleed for the leeches
And everyone I ever pushed away
I see in the bleachers
I don’t know what’s real anymore
Hallucinations are creeping
Done battling, demons had me basking in youth
Now I’m trafficking truth while your
President is trafficking humans
You laughed when I prophesized
Now he’s laughing at you
Recovery ain’t what I thought
So I’m asking for proof
Tell me who gon ride, dawg
Who gon ride when the well wishes run dry
Dawg i don't have a clue as to
Who's really on this side
But relationships sink and everybody's
Got to die, Dawg
What am I to do besides tell
You that your vibe's off
Running round chasing vanity and your desires
All the I don’t bend or break
Talk, we know that’s a lie, Dawg
When they’re shooting shots, no
Horse, just lives, Dawg
Tell me who survives y’all
Looking for a way out
To lie with you, they'd lie for you
Ride for you, die for you
Who love you like I love you?
All them putting morality to the side for you
Be on that auction block when
It's time for you? Not me
I’ll never hustle for a necklace
I just want to know who’s down
For me when it’s hectic
Deep breath, knee to elbow, chin in chest
Guess I’m going off the deep end dawg
And I accept it
People keep telling me I’ve done enough
Thinking bout somebody’s son in
New Orleans that was left hanging
From the bleachers after Piedmont
They kept it a secret for a
Reason, revenge all summer sixteen, Huh?
Black lives matter
But we keep it moving till we
Die by someone other than us
So what’s a movement?
Cause it’s amusing how people of
Power can sway opinions, It’s being proven
How these rappers rap about everything
Except what they’re doing
What we’re going through is the
Same battle we’re always losing
They put their heart into using these soon to
Be veterans and discard them with PTSD
What are you settling for, huh?
The truth is such a bitter pill to swallow
I don’t care about a Grammy I
Just want to see tomorrow
I just want to see my
Best friend one last time
Just a bystander in your own life (own life)
A bystander in your own life (own life)
A bystander in your own life, uhhh
Lost in the world, you're hopeless
Ain't come from the money
But stayed for you, Okay

You'll never be high enough
