byron henderson - peace of mind. lyrics

[intro: marina esmeralda]
wake up

[hook: byron henderson]
don’t want to look at myself saying, “sorry what you’ve become”
so i need peace of mind and a double dose of freedom
i don’t ask for help, and my pride is the reason
change on the horizon, it’s time that i see some
whoa
(don’t want to look at myself saying, “sorry what you’ve become”)
yeah

don’t want to look at myself saying, “sorry what you’ve become”
so i need peace of mind and a double dose of freedom
i don’t ask for help, and my pride is the reason
change on the horizon, it’s time that i see some
whoa
(change on the horizon, it’s time that i see some)
yeah

[verse 1: byron henderson]
look
guess it’s caution i proceed with
used to question if anything mattered when it was losses bringing me wins
my mental health was battered
home was lost, no one to believe in
life was tossing me in the deep end
all my demons used to yell sink, while inner peace would scream swim
and so i did
the result was overflowing love with no idea
how to reciprocate was unfamiliar, too detached to feel
but never too detached to heal
sick of wearing a mask for real
whatever peace of mind costed me, i ain’t need to have for real
societal norms made me feel less human, it’s true
progress i made would feel like nothing cause i’m comparing to you
furthermore, i found love in a way i’ve never expected
fell in love, but through knowing it wouldn’t last, i found acceptance
in the mirror, i can see maturity and satisfaction
so i bask in that, cause five years ago, i just saw depression
lessons lost in translation, injuries build up
the world ain’t change, we did
adults with no adults to shield us
[hook: byron henderson]
don’t want to look at myself saying, “sorry what you’ve become”
so i need peace of mind and a double dose of freedom
i don’t ask for help, and my pride is the reason
change on the horizon, it’s time that i see some
whoa
(don’t want to look at myself saying, “sorry what you’ve become”)
yeah

[beat switch]

[verse 2: byron henderson]
like them, we make mistakes
but know there’s more to life than violence
reciprocated energy, family ties that keep us silent
them suckers ain’t our enemies, just people we’ll never vibe with
not better than you, just bettering me
too at peace for the nonsense
save the arguments for your conscience
do you hold yourself accountable or project?
the bigger question is if honesty should be what i expect?
fingers crossed you find security
fingers crossed you find a partner that shows you everything you didn’t see
the good, the bad, the in between
knew plenty of people that didn’t dream
they hugged the block and ended up with bullets, numbers for names, or mentally still a teen
fingers crossed addiction loses hold of you
cause i know that ain’t what younger you envisioned for the older you
may you reconnect with sober you
and if you’re being abused, then fingers crossed you get away
fingers crossed you heal from therapy
may you all see better days
when i was young and filled with rage, i got to know calm in the form of a child
don’t let yours be wet by your storm, cause time’s running out
i’m trying to warn y’all, your choice whether you heed it
at nine, was thrown to the wolves, now they look real sheepish
cause sometimes the eyes deceive us
in english, convey your motives
small as a giant, give me the rock, saving souls like i’m angrboda
but only who the universe allows me to
no star treatment
look at my skin, society fouled me too
oh yeah, you know i know it’s been like that
but this is reassurance for all, cause it ain’t got to end like that, mm
so do you hold yourself accountable or deflect?
the bigger question is if honesty should be what i expect
i reflect on all of that to say, always stay on the path you build
whatever peace of mind is costing, you don’t need to have for real
what ever peace of mind is costing, you don’t need to have for real
follow your dreams, stay on the path you build
whatever peace of mind is costing, you don’t need to have for real
i said, whatever peace of mind is costing, you don’t need to have for real
whatever peace of mind is costing
yeah
yeah
[hook: byron henderson]
don’t want to look at myself saying, “sorry what you’ve become”
so i need peace of mind and a double dose of freedom
when i ask for help, let my pride be the beacon
change on the horizon, it’s time that i see some
whoa
