Intro: Here's my Ode to Pain
all innocence cleared and slain
Night fell and the pain came
The agony over and over again
Verse one:
Blood! story of my life goes
Only God knows
How many of set goals
But this is the path that I chose
Ain't go regretting it
Life is just one big big misery
It's a miracle that I'm still in it
But I'm killin' it
Yh pain I'm reliving it
All in my veins
It was all pain
There was no gain
It was all shame
Heart in distress
Couldn't cope with the stress
Emotional wrecks
Couldn't handle the mess
Couldn't settle for less
Unspoken Trauma
Unending Drama
Thank God for fathers, mothers
Sisters and brothers
Your physical pain be throbbing
Emotional pain be aching
You're broken
Tears be rolling
Emotional wreckage
Lost an appendage
And I ain't even come of the right age
To be sure that we're on the same page
You really should get to my age
Chorus:
My throat burns I'm on fire
I can't speak, I can't breathe
The pain is beginning to eat me up
Verse two:
Had a friend named Grace
She got piercings all over her face
She was in love with the pain
In love with the scars
Truth is, it's where all her memory lies
So I asked her...Grace?
What do you do when you're hurting
What do you do when it feels like you're fading
What do you do when the pain
is so much it's physical, mental, emotional all of that...
And she said to me Nah ahn
It really doesn't work not like that
Through true pain
You're self realised, self actualised
The scars are the evidence of the journey
It Really gets lonely, but not to worry it's part of the process
You really wanting more not just less
I'm C.Y.P and here's the story
The Ode to the Pain, the guts and glory
The good, the bad and the ugly
Cold, naked, afraid and awoken
I'm just trusting the process
Steadily making progress
I'm so much extra I think I'm excess
