relena-rochelle - bygones lyrics

let’s go
right right
you gotta forgive
let go and let

i know it’s past midnight and nicu open for 21 hours
but how i’m s’posed to breathe without her
i ain’t heard from the doctor since i gave birth
took one glimpse a contraction
why n0body know what happened?
seem like every 2 hours a new nurse
and this one nurse must be gettin paid the way she keep taking my blood pressure
but my heart hurt
is yall gone check that too?
mama by my side
daddy wasn’t in the room
they keep telling me it’s gone be alright right but
ain’t n0body telling me my daughter fine
my father in law drove 2 hours to see the do not disturb sign
i ain’t pulled a all nighter since a college paper was assigned
now i graduated, screaming mama we made it
but i bet if i had cake, we wouldn’t have to wait and
i feel like i failed myself
what if today’s her last day?
and she couldn’t call for help
man…
if tomorrow wasn’t promised
what if today was your last day?
would you forgive your enemies?
if tomorrow isn’t promised
why do we live like we got forever
like it’s a guarantee
n0body knows what the future holds
when god calls em home
if tomorrow wasn’t promised
what if today was your last day?
what would you do?
you gotta forgive
let go and let live

it’s the next day
and everybody went home
hubby snoring like he in hibernation
he gone
told me she was gone pull through
but we ain’t got no news
i ain’t seen my eyelids
i can’t sleep i refuse
mama wanted answers in nicu
said they kept her warm
but her arm wouldn’t move
i cried so much that my eyes hurt
cause i was confused
i did everything right
you couldn’t walk in my shoes
i was numb to the congratulations
they didn’t seem real
i just wanted to see her
and feel what she feel
take her pain away
flashbacks of when i sp+ced
all the risks i faced
felt the trauma, the guilt and disgrace
a black woman giving birth in america
never thought i’d recognize myself again
isolated from my friends
fast forward 2 years later
past the postpartum depression
got answers to my questions
as i use my pen
i’m a living testimony
even dark times are blessings
tomorrow’s not promised
so appreciate your present
to the doctor that hurt me, i forgive you
i’m taking back my power and joy
with pain in my rearview
man…
if tomorrow wasn’t promised
what if today was your last day?
would you forgive your enemies?
if tomorrow isn’t promised
why do we live like we got forever
like it’s a guarantee
n0body knows what the future holds
when god calls them home
if tomorrow wasn’t promised
what if today was your last day?
what would you do?
you gotta forgive
let go and let live
say i am strong
i am fearfully and wonderfully made
