Sorrow 03:40
Nothing left for the gods to give god forgive me I’m lost again here sitting with these thoughts again bottles empty when they tempt me couple sips and I felt free still standing on unsteady legs a heavy head giving me neck pains next day I’ll be the same jumped in a bottle cus I thought it could sustain but left nothing behind but bloody red stains a blank memory and a bad new day lost to my ways like so many others hand on my heart cus nobody loves us scars all around from times I got low smile on my face but inside it’s cold that warm embrace ya feel is not so I’d say that I lost it but I never had hope there's something in the water the body of a pauper the banshee is calling with her I must go lost to my ways like so many others hand on my heart cus nobody loves us laughter dies down tears soon follow when the drink dries up get drunk from the sorrow cry to the birds and the bees and swallows cry cus the earth beneath my feet feels hollow cry with the wind when it wails on the Morrow cry just to cry then cry tears of sorrow hand on my heart cuz nobody loves down on my luck getting comfy in the gutter no helping hand ever help me to stand I’m a wretched man born bred for a struggle catch a break that’ll be the day the going gets easy I see no trouble so wish good fortune on the unfortunate when it rains it pours and clouds don’t pass

LYRICS Smokey days came then exhaled Shakey ground had me pulling weight Trips around estates I weren’t keen to stay but if peer pressure hears your name called you don’t have a say And if the shades call you don’t say your name And if them lights flash then we taking chase go head and light that smoke until your brains That’s the tone of my home it’s all Hopeful dreams of getting outta life alive Unholy schemes utilized to try survive Get out the dirt easy nah you’d be surprised cus when golds in the soil it’s so hard to say goodbye Once more to be a fool walking school through the foggy dew dumb know it all flying blind stop peeking out that window mind your business close them blinds Parasites been sucking blood I’m pale white like the sky I’m conflicted in this life good heart but bad intentions I’m afflicted by my times Fucks a job role models not about got left behind excuse excuses but I plead play the victim pay the price Laughing crying silent I’m addicted to the lies I’m too spiteful breaking bread forgiveness shit is not my style came out the womb with a chip on my shoulder my demise my oh my Father drinking mother crying night time lullabies what am I paying for praying for better times heavy eyes steady hands waiting way more happy days never came anyways nothing changed vacate from myself on my heart there’s a strain what am I paying for praying for better times heavy eyes steady hands waiting way more happy days never came anyways nothing changed vacate from myself on my heart there’s a strain
