Byron Henderson - Sincerely Yours lyrics

Yeah i just want to thank everyone that’s
Supported me during this long journey
Even if you didn’t necessarily believe
In me in the beginning
Or even if you did and
Don’t believe in me now, Thank you
Without you guys
None of this would be possible
But I still have a few things that I
Have to get off of my chest

Barry Allen as I run from my
Demons hugging my soul tight
Became accustomed to fear, failure
Frivolous relationships and lives being taken
When there was no right
At this point, I’m just numb to it
But I won’t succumb to it
How many bullets can I dodge alone?
Do I put my faith in this world
Or only in your God alone?
Never mind bullets
How many snakes slither round my home?
Praying for my downfall and my
People to die as clones
Or maybe it’s just my
Paranoia speaking for me
I look around don’t see any
Black doctors or scholars
But I know who was murdered last night
I went to school with him
As a matter of fact, I
Was pretty cool with him, We balled together
He was young, hit by a stray
And that could happen to anyone
Of us on any day, But should it?
See ain’t no unity between you and me
No one’s immune to these in our community

Sincerely yours
Me and my friends are from three different
Worlds and you know that ish
Love, peace, and little bit of hope
That’s it but I won’t lie
Those homicide numbers float in my mind
Pretty similar to the soul that
Sit's with the skeletons
In your closet that you won’t give in to
Sincerely yours

I look myself at 19 and
See a different person
A person who’s hoping he’s alive next year
A person that’s human, hurting
That usually hides that sheer terror caused
By hallucinations that arrived last year
Never been too in depth with my feelings
Unless with my friends
Reclusive with everyone else
But extroverted to them
Never been too in depth with my feelings
Unless with my fans
Rina said we could live forever
Never knew what that meant
Imagine knowing so much about me
Yet still knowing nothing
Whatever the weather for better or worse
I give my all cause it’s something
For every person walking up to
Me in silence in public
You pull your sleeves up
Showing what you’ve survived through
It’s touching that I’m the reason
Then you ask about my old friends
Cause I’m an open book
And how two friendships that
Close can both end?
I tell you that it’s just life
To some it’s bout control
If they don’t have control, they lose sight
Just so you know

Sincerely yours sincerely yours
I see the times we live in
I see the writing on the wall
And the blood that’s spilling
I see unnecessary wars and the
Guns that’s killing my people
In hands of my people
And the drugs still filling our
Neighborhoods up with this evil
Ain’t no fathers
Supposedly caught doing something illegal
If they ain’t for my people, I am
Sincerely yours

My name is Byron Henderson
Recently turned 21
I lost my best friend at 18
So if I’m to give you one piece of advice
It’s cherish whoever you have with you
Relinquish your vices
I’ve had a lot of things happen to me
Like having to leave a friend to
Die cause he was bleeding
Out after being shot by a cop for no reason
Tell me how to get over that or
The thief that left Tony leaking?
I ain’t known for holding back
Or to pull it and start squeezing
See I lost a couple friends
Cause we grew apart
Listen, I’ve gained a couple fans
If I influence y’all
Then I’d better make it positive
How am I to shed light on this?
How am I to prevent suicide at
The time I’m writing this?
If I’m to lose anyone else
I promise I might flip
Couldn’t care less about having this
Game in a vice grip
Couldn’t save me or Rina
But might be able to save you
To end this open letter
The best of me’s what I gave you

Sincerely yours, Byron Henderson
