k-rino - the burden robe lyrics

[verse 1: k-rino]
there was a man who woke up one day with his heart absent of love
so he went to search for the answer of why that really was
all attempts to learn on his own would eventually fail him
asked his mother and his father but neither one would ever tell him
he was not young, he was not old, he had been here for a while
and trouble had built up inside of him since he was a child
he met a guy who then told him, even though he didn’t know him
and informed him of an old man with the understanding to show him
his inner demons was starting to eat right through him and defeat him
so he quickly made preparations to locate him and meet him
he was already questioning whether or not he would believe him
so he just thought to himself i guess i’ll find out when i see him

[hook x2: k-rino]
so much trouble on my shoulders now, every day a new weight
i should’ve been a better man but now i think is too late
i have to pull my mind back from the darkness to a true place of light, before this burden overtakes me

[verse 2: k-rino]
he showed up a the man’s home, hoping he wasn’t a faker
he walked up to the door and checked the address on the paper
he was kind of apprehensive because they told him to come alone
and as he lifted his hands to knock the door just opened up on its own
and the old man appeared and said, “how may i -ssist you?”
he said i heard that you can lift my burdens. he said, “it’s true”
he called him closer grabbed him by the shoulder, gripped it tight
and in his mind he now could vision every aspect of his life
then he stepped into the light, the garment he wore was exposed
it was a robe that looked as though it was five centuries old
he said, “if you put this on then your children will fall below you”
he said ‘i don’t have any children’ he said, ‘yes you do i’ll show you’

[hook: x2]

[verse 3: k-rino]
the old man said this robe i’m wearing, is no regular robe
it exposes past emotions and reasons never been told
when you were five years old you were parsimonious indeed
and that selfish mind married lust and gave birth to greed
then greed grew up to gain much, but was a lonely one
till he met hate who gave birth to pain their only son
and pain consummated with envy from night time till the morn
and two more children disloyalty and then murder were born
and you fathered them all and let each of these spirits drown you
and love, trust and comp-ssion were not allowed to be around you
so now you stand before me crying imploring for help
asking me to lift the sadness you inflicted on yourself
then the old man took the robe off and his heart began to soften
the stress erased from his face and his grey began to darken
then he placed it on the man’s back and the man began to lose it
it was uncomfortable, heavy and impossible to remove it
the old man said i wore this for fifty years, it wasn’t easy
but you coming to see me took it off my back and freed me
so to wipe out the regret and hurt you feel there’s only one way
you’ll have to wear this robe till someone like you finds you one day

[outro: k-rino]
there’s a lesson in this, for all of us
the things we do stay with us for years
till we cleanse them from our internal self
in other words get them demons out your heart man
