sleep of oldominion - never lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i was a funny looking kid
i used to wear my cousin’s hand-me-downs
the pants never fit me right
of course kids are gonna clown

especially when you’re the new kid
mom and pops got marital problems
so i’m always moving
used to go to my grandfather’s house after school
‘n’ watch my cousin’s [?]

he taught me the [?]
[?] taught me how to walk with a mean mug
i taught myself how to talk with a king tongue
my next door neighbor taught me about green bud
my grandma nora taught me ‘bout the heavenly kingdom

time would teach me everything else
never knew what it had up its sleeves
but lessons would be dealt. i –
found myself surprised on many occasions
especially when i couldn’t remember my uncle’s name
praying the next day he was gone
i never prayed the same way again ‘cause i thought it was my fault

[chorus]
sometimes the sweetest sound (the sweetest sound)
is the one that makes you cry (please don’t cry)
and even the saddest moment (the saddest moment)
provide the reasons why (boy you shouldn’t forget)
sometimes the hardest part (the hardest part)
is trying to keep a smile (so keep your head)
keep your head to the sky

[verse 2]
i used to dream of leaving this world
my body froze with fear
convinced that everything beautiful ends in tears
i just proceed to move on
my mama raised me strong
watched her struggle through all the years my pops was gone

when she thought she was alone
her door closed
i heard her crying through the walls
and my anger rose to rage
i didn’t want to see my mother dating these b-st-rds
i stayed awake praying that she would make it home safely
i didn’t want a step-dad
i wanted my parents to get back together
but f that. whatever

everything is everything, and ain’t nothin’ gonna get better
so i put my feelings away until i grabbed the paper –
and pen. never pretended;
only wrote what my heart said
indented, to count bars in my sentences
god lent this gift
i’m gonna spend it sending a positive message
ending my negative perspective

i’m never forgetting
never losing my essence
never accepting less than i deserve again
ever
today i feel alive
today i got it together
yesterday i tried
i just couldn’t make it feel any better
tomorrow i’ll try harder to make it last forever
and do anything i can to not let it slip through my fingers
i’m never forgetting
never losing my essence
never accepting less than i deserve again
ever. (uh-uh)

[chorus]
sometimes the sweetest sound (the sweetest sound)
is the one that makes you cry (please don’t cry)
and even the saddest moment (the saddest moment)
provide the reasons why (boy you shouldn’t forget)
sometimes the hardest part (the hardest part)
is trying to keep a smile (so keep your head)
keep your head to the sky
