[Byron Henderson - MEMENTO MORI. / REDEMPTION. lyrics]
Yeah mm
Dial tone on my hotline, it don’t bling much
Heaven sent
Yet I’m raising Hades from a city
Where they love to breed lust
I’ve been detrimental to myself lately
Couple failed attempts at planting seeds
Look so you’d better come get your
Immunization from this cannon barrel
Cause I’m more than a man and I’m counting
Bullets that’ll land in whoever’s
Name brand apparel
Through the ceiling, walls, and floor, yes
Demons here to cause plenty more stress
Leave them on the man upstairs’ doorstep
More or less, things change, people change
Swerving off the road, need to pick a lane
Rearrange, tired of leaning on
Kels and Aaliyah
Like crutches to keep me sane
You’d better spread the word because
My time is limited
I’m beyond infinity, yet I’m boxed in?
I’m the enemy, yet I’m Byron
It’s trauma killing me
So I’ve gotta deny you entry
I apologize to any who’ve got a problem
With how I renege and waiver
But as I wave good-bye
I just hope I’m still packing a wallop
Even if I never see you again
Just know I love y’all but I’ve gotta go
Y’all gotta go
Was really out here making room for
Blessings that ain’t never coming
I accept that nothing here is promised
All I’ve got is stress from running
I’ll be honest
I can see I’m way too indecisive
Cause I came a long way, I’ve been fighting
Been feeling resentment
Cause how can I leave who ain’t leave me
The wrong way is enticing
And freedom ain’t free
But F it, long as I get to be me
I didn’t know where home was i
Was drowning drowning in everything bad
About myself i looked at myself
As a reminder that all
Men die but ironically, when
I closed my eyes, That’s when I
Felt something… Better yet, someone grab
My hand and say
"Breathe" that’s when I found
Out where home was
Hmm redemption
Relations castrated for safety precautions
Visions of my babies in coffins
And lately it’s often
Sour emotions could do away with me shortly
I’m frustrated
I’ve taken my losses and kept it pushing
But just maybe, there’s more to
This than I thought, And I need distance
If I let everything go
Will my soul leave with it?
Or will I breathe again, cause I love empathy
Whatever ventures back after I leave
It is meant to be stay out of my way
If I want it, I’ll take it
I’m haunted by racists
I’m tarnished, I’m jaded
The corner I’m placed in now has an exit, uh
Praying for the day that the
Good lord saves my soul
Raise me up ‘til I'm on my feet again
I'm on my knees weak
Praying for the day that the
Good lord brings me redemption
Turned trauma to power and broke free
(yeah, yeah) all of these battle wounds
Licking them clean (whoa, whoa)
Od I tuB
Wonk ton I rof, snis ym lla rof em evigrof
DroL
Down to meet my maker (meet my maker)
Who’s trying to see my greatness
(see my greatness)
Praying for the day that the
Good lord saves my soul
Raise me up ‘til I'm on my feet again
I'm on my knees weak
Praying for the day that the
Good lord brings me redemption
Dial tone on my hotline, it don’t bling much
