Byron Henderson - SILENT DEATH. lyrics

Lighters in the air for the
Heir to the kingdom
For, my nightmares are just products
Of a dream come
True to rap a lot like the King's son
So my band moves to the beat of three drums
As I stood back to back with the wall
Demons always on the air like a rerun
Past life spelled death like a King's thumb
But nowadays, it's more similar to scene one
Innocence killed and filled with
Bliss due to illness
No idea how to deal with it
If you're still trying to feel
There's a different kind of curе
But no pill can heal the ills of this
Folks run the streets whilе the
Streets run their life
No concern whatsoever bout the
Wrongs they right
Then turn around looking for peace
With none in sight
Just you and a flash that's
Bright as the sun, Then night

Cries for help go unheard
Guess that's how it is though
Attention seeking, so absurd
But that's what I've been told
Maybe I'm overreacting, no
The old me is getting killed slow
They gave me something
You gave me something that'll get me
High when I feel like

Cries for help go unheard
Guess that's how it is though
Attention seeking, so absurd
But that's what I've been told
Maybe I'm overreacting, no
The old me is getting killed slow
They gave me something
You gave me something that'll get me
High when I feel low

Word to G-O-D look in my eyes
Thought I came a long way
From depression and trauma
Less is more, if you thought
I was set before, Huh
Like I'm playing for the Suns
Look how I rise
Did a lot of waiting on folks
That made leverage out of favors
Intentions are foul
If karma doesn't catch you now
Just know I ain't got no patience
Got you in my sight
Cold as Nova Scotia landscapes
Coming down is something that I can't take
Hanging with my demons less
The branch breaks, Whoa
That's a mess, ain't it?
Inner fluids from my wrists leaking
Thinking maybe I'll be less tainted
It'll hide the pain and there'll
Be less weeping for me
Life ain't all it's cracked up to be
All of my demons haunting me
Misery keeps me company
Became best friends with the bathroom
Slimmer than I was just last month
Just ship me off or whatever
Nevertheless, I'm going overboard
I can taste the sea, I'm drowning in it
More bodies fall, they land next to me
Death, I'm surrounded with it
Should I care about if y'all
Think less of me
You'll probably use my eulogy and
Clown me with it
Only time I ever really feel as
If I made an impact
Is when I hit this water like a Curry three
Splash and I'm at peace here, so
If you find my body, Don't bury me
Yeah, guess I'm floating for the last time
Excuse me sir, let me pass by
Use me as cover, if need be
The ocean covered up my last cry
I feel the energy of ancestors
Carrying me through the planned wreckage
Constantly walking the line between the
Wrong and the right
A sinking vessel with a land message

And so I float like there's no tomorrow
I can hear the screams
I done scoped the horror
I can see a light trying to guide me back
But don't feel a thing no hope or sorrow
Wide awake, plotting my escape
Hated weighing on others
So I'd deadlift weight
But now I treat life like the hairs on Medusa
The only way for me to stay ahead of snakes

Cries for help go unheard
Guess that's how it is though (RIP, RIP)
Attention seeking, so absurd
But that's what I've been told
Maybe I'm overreacting, no
The old me is getting killed slow
They gave me something
You gave me something that'll get me
High when I feel low

Cries for help go unheard
Never by you though
Attention seeking, so absurd
That was never the truth
So to those that never never made it out
Whoa peace to all of you and your souls
I was given someone that would bring me back
With the strength to swim 'til I feel shore
