byron henderson - catch me. lyrics

[intro]
yeah+yeah
whoa+whoa

[verse 1]
can’t be true to yourself less you know who you truly are
y’all got it confused, being weak and being vulnerable ain’t mutually exclusive, dawg
that was always a rule though
hold your head up high and tuck your feelings out of view, oh
but that was never useful
steady trying to live up to expectations of your peers
while they peak over your shoulder, manipulating all your fears
wonder how the people closest to you keep you insecure
you can’t reach your full potential, they won’t let you leave them here
they call shotgun on your every endeavor
second place a recurring theme, they won’t let you be better
stunting your growth, all of y’all dreaming of being people the world will know
self+esteem depleted, yet you don’t see them wanting that smoke with the cause
cause they know they’re the cause
though you know that they’re flawed, you still love them regardless
say only a man can teach a boy how to be one
but if you’re surrounded by cowards, you’ll be too blinded to ever identify or see one

[hook]
can anybody catch me?
i feel like i’m falling again
my dance partner left me alone on the dance floor
though i went through all this for them
devil peeking through my window, we’ll never dance again, dawg
as far as both my friends go
only two people more solid than this wall
is anybody out there?

[verse 2]
yeah, i’m well connected with my mind, body, soul
so i sit and recollect on all the lies i was told
bottle thoughts with that elixir you fight them with, helpless
why, when your feelings matter like anyone else’s
hearing the gossip from friends that turned enemies, envious
realign your thoughts before it turns your heart hideous
couldn’t save tsushima still hanging round ryuzo
wins come with losses, your potential never knew lows
often best if you ghost folks, your mental health comes first
carve two new roads, and make sure both work
trust issues from your past all rooted in deceit
too afraid to be discouraged, so you’re ruling out the meet and greet
no love story, this is real life
it’s what folks that share the same hue as me feel like
careful round the company you keep, snakes will bite
remember even your darkest of thoughts shed real light
you can feel the tension in the air you breathe
cause you know somewhere someone couldn’t and probably perished unnecessarily
whether it’s here, israel, or palestine, it’s real out here
dealing with suicide, genocide, homicide
even the sikhs, and the farmers that help us eat
heard it by word of mouth, guess we’re the land of the sheep
but i’m stepping to the wolves
no weapon they possess will make me second guess my morals
i found a safe passage to the shore
sure enough, i was in the midst of a war
i walk away from the ruins and sand bleached from bones
i see corrupted officials still causing disruption
world leaders told peace like hammer, can’t touch this
no reconciliation with you or your past
nothing equal in your math for my people
what’s a flag sutured with bl++dy cotton
i wish i could put a match to it along with every patriotic belief attached to it
been sitting on this thought for days
how the coin just flipped, whites went from owning us to being slaves themselves
“god save us!”, they pray for help
nah dawg, you’re just prey, bed’s made, oh well
lead strays ricochet, better save yourself
find peace, chase dreams, you and brave go well
cause ain’t no telling when hate will bubble over
this place will swelter, get your heart in the right place for shelter, uh
[hook]
can anybody catch me?
i feel like i’m falling again
my dance partner left me alone on the dance floor
though i went through all this for them

devil peeking through my window, we’ll never dance again, dawg
as far as both my friends go
only two people more solid than this wall
can anybody hear me?
