byron henderson - d.w.t.w. lyrics

[part 1: produced by young taylor]

[intro: byron]
whatever…
rina, turn me up a little
let it ride out
i kind of feel like everything is running its course
but this might be the last chance i get
so, i’m not quite finished yet…

[verse: byron]
promise me that we won’t be miserable if we make it
couple of people turned their backs and that’s life, where’s the respect?
never failed at giving my all, still they’re stripping me naked
honesty will turn a friend to a foe, foot on they’re neck
nah, who’s supposed to come to your aid whenever you need something?
foolish pride made you a slave, homie, you’re greed drunken
only word engraved on my tombstone is destiny
honestly, i often miss you next to me, but that’s just me
don’t have time for walking around feeling sorry
i feel like dying but won’t be joining your pity party
i remained me far longer than you
how am i weak or a coward, when i’m stronger than you?
remaining byron is my claim to fame, i know the fake’s for hire
they took the chains; we brought them back, the situation’s dire
and i’m just trying to find my place within the madness
i’ll keep going for my babies till the day that i get tired

[hook: byron]
for the love of the money?
for the l-st?
for the cars?
listen, you ain’t gotta stunt, dawg
you ain’t gotta stunt, dawg
nah, you ain’t gotta stunt, dawg

not afraid of you just because you have a gun, dawg
you can shoot first, and you’ll feel like a man up until your time comes, dawg
tell them i won’t last forever

[verse: byron]
nothing but stab wounds in my back, that’s why i lack trust
don’t worry though, i no longer bleed, i close back up
scary hours
take lead showers around this time
ain’t no putting out this fire, i’m in a permanent prime
how’s it feel knowing that my demons are k!lling me slow?
and there’s nothing you can do to save me, feelings elope?
feeling helpless, feel like i’m selfish, what does it matter?
keep your cold mugs out of my face, or get them shattered
freaking leeches, i can spot you from a mile away
mindful of intuition, trying to seek friends was my mistake
a couple people sneak dissing, they’re remixing my old flows, too much
but keeping focus on them will give us less time to do us
you’re trying to be somebody, but ever think of your health?
how am i to care about you if you don’t care for yourself?
where the love at?
utter my last reb-ttal, i struggle to cope
but i’ll never give up on my cousin, cause her love is my hope
‘merica the beautiful, everyone is thinking like a dead man
live it up, but what about the future though?
look at my generation and i wonder where the love’s at?
i look at my people and i wonder where the love’s at?
i look at my country and i wonder where the love’s at?
one for all till we all die and the guns blast
rina’s in front of me wondering when the pain stops
until then, i guess it’s nothing but rain drops

[hook: byron]

[outro: byron]
love yours
love yours
tell them i won’t last forever
don’t be afraid
don’t be afraid

[interlude: byron (marina)]
byron: sometimes when i’m lying in bed, i wonder, at what point am i supposed to be done with this world? the problems are right in front of us, but tensions are so high that we really can’t do anything. that upsets me, because i don’t who’d i be if something happened to either one of you girls

marina: shhh

[intro: byron]
it’s difficult not to think about things like this
i know some of you probably think i grew up differently than you
but odds are, we came up in the same environment
i just somehow managed to get avoid it all
now, things are getting worse, and as a kid, i didn’t even think that was possible
but i thought, if there are two things that i’ve always done extremely well, it’s read and write
two years later, i’m getting fan mail about how i helped someone through a difficult time, and it’s insane
that’s a lot to take in

[verse: byron]
for a minute, i thought it was never ending when something this freaking good calls
yeah, it took b-lls for you to try building my self esteem
i barely could walk around school, every warm embrace i would push off
but it reminded me of just how much something this good cost
my best intentions uncaring if i would look soft
whether i’m from a hood or i’m daring enough to just talk
i had to think about all the drama it would cause
deep inside, i admired the fact you stood tall
but i also noticed how quiet you always would fall whenever something was wrong
maybe i’m over thinking these urges i get
it’s murder after murder, what’s to stop them from hurting my friends?
you get a certain feeling when i say the real is all it took to k!ll you
let’s be honest, because they would rather cheer the unfamiliar
rina, aaliyah, nayzia, jeileen are my heartbeat
so, i’m coming right for where your thoughts be
i’ll tell you straight up

[hook: byron]
when the sun goes down, tell me what you live for
because i don’t see change round here
to be honest, i just see a lot a chains round here
gold nooses, love ain’t a thing round here, whoa

i don’t have a lot of time left
being afraid to love is childish
you know we’re all blessed
you’ll be leaking here nothing, so love yours
cause if it’s your last hour, then you know we’re bout to stress so hard

[verse: byron]
i’d ride for you
i’d die for you
take a hollow to the eye, carl grimes for you
feelings i bottle inside like nothing explode
those feelings corrode my mind, but still i try for you
sometimes i feel i don’t make enough time for you
been optimistic, but i’m tired, true
from me to you, i say don’t worry bout it
m.o.e. is the reason why every morgue is crowded
more money, more l-st and violence, important to trust in guidance
there’s a war going on outsid
people would rather swallow kids than pride
i hate you have to be a part of it, cause you’re the closest i’ll get to a daughter
just to let you know aaliyah, innocence, the world will slaughter it
black thoughts rooted in my mind, thinking what would jesus do?
because what you see is what the greed will do
my friends, i hope it never comes for us, from me to you
pump your breaks before i do you like i have the key to you

[hook: byron]

[verse: byron]
don’t ever let me hear you call me a goat, i’m re-reminding
we don’t care about that ish around here, i’m being honest
every word is like a speeding bullet taken to the streets
push a b-tton, let chaos erupt and history repeats
watch me open up pandora’s box again
i’m looking at life, like what do we do when they finally box us in?
left and right, there’s people losing oxygen
been ducking trouble since my childhood, they ain’t think i could win
a couple of million won’t ever conceal the pain
my only wish is a hug from my friends; make sure this isn’t in vain
they’ll put a price tag on your soul, we’re all dying
lord forgive me if i’m ready to go, i’ll be done trying one day
i hope you see me as byron and nothing more
every day i hear the sound of siren
and that’ll cause me to become numb and no longer care about rain drops
because i know that when i’m done is when the rain stops

[hook: byron]
