Lyrics for 224
Well, survival is for survival you know In this time especially, going through so much struggle You know when you struggle, you struggle to survive So we always know the struggle And survival is a reality for we have to survive 224 from day five, deathly scorn by age six All alone when Sage cry Tears of joy, my pain fixed Left amidst to learn some Found a vice in these spliffs Trust the flame, made me numb Same advice had me blitzed I can't go to where I hide My sunken place, ain't have a lid Just like the Pataki say Shame will have you missing limbs I can say I love myself, finally I love it here I can say I love you too Promise I don't live in fear no more I got papa's dearest glow, feel his spirit close Hight of soul, my soul's below Faces on a totem pole Slow and steady grants you growth Can't nobody hand you hope Wish I had your hand to hold With gratitude I dance alone Gotta soothe my damaged soul Papa knew I'd manage though We was playing dominos, Bananagram and Scrabble Long trips around the beaming sun Whatever come was planned I know, I know I know you miss me like I miss you More to me than bones and tissue Gotta bleed to make it visceral Flee from out the physical Demons out to get you, they gon' get you if you let 'em Breathe and soar to heaven, ain't no way I could forget 'em Excavation of my treasure, transportation serves me better Got no plans to beat myself up, if I do, I use a feather On a scale of weighing heart, sacred bond when we together Yeah, I'm glad found the light 'cause in my darkness I was tethered Made my way from wrong to right, live this life for my ancestors I live this life for my ancestors 224 from day five, deathly scorn by age six All alone when Sage cry Tears of joy, my pain fixed 224 from day five, deathly scorn by age six All alone when Sage cry Tears of joy, my pain fixed My pain fixed 224 from day five, deathly scorn by age six All alone when Sage cry Tears of joy, my pain fixed 224 from day five, deathly scorn by age six All alone when Sage cry Tears of joy, my pain fixed Fixed me Live this life for my ancestors Live this life for my ancestors Yeah, yeah, Navy
