letra de homeless. (heaven is closed) - byron henderson

[intro: marina esmeralda & byron henderson]
bae, you doing okay?
right now?
yeah
yes… what?
it’s just i don’t think you’ve smiled once today, and it’s kind of scary. that’s all
there wasn’t anything to smile about
i’m gonna uppercut you to the moon!
-laughs- man, what?
ha! i got you!
shut up
you look like a little boy
shut up
that’s better. it’s nice to be home, huh?

[verse 1: byron henderson]
ugh
walking through the city with a heavy heart
thinking bout life and my lil’ one, the odyssey we embark
on this journey through the lessons that we often disregard
it’s hard as a father figure in a world that tears apart
look, only six years old, but still at the crossroads
stuck on your flaws, just know everything ain’t your fault though
as long as your feet work, you can run from the dark when lights start to dim
but never let accountability get lost (uh huh)
most friends come and go, a piece of advice
come in all shapes and sizes, some a leech or a knife
bottom line, if you can’t undo a move, make the next one better
do right by you, screw appeasing, some won’t accept you ever
could never be mad over things you’ve done
we all stumble, trip, and fall while beginning to run
but understand that the road you’re on can turn to ruin
either moderation or not at all, don’t overdo it
some of the truest went through life trying to please their peers
and ended up existing buried deep beneath their fears
you can see the world is toxic and it preys on the weak
seek strength from within, listen close when i speak
your worth is defined by the light you hold inside
don’t let society dim it, let your spirit be your guide
take pride in your body, in your mind, in your soul
nevermind what they’re doing, hyperfocus on your goals
carve your own path, try to make choices wisely
life’s a marathon, not a sprint, so tread lightly
twelve years straight where i felt just like you
battles in my mind, fighting demons every night too
but life’s a canvas, got to paint it with your truth
learn to embrace the struggle, let it strengthen your roots
be the proof, all that you choose, determines who you prove
to be, in a world full of chaos and abuse
oh my

fifth ward, who bout that life?
sixth ward, who bout that life?
hard heads, who bout that life?
if you’re scared, don’t come outside

[hook: marina esmeralda & byron henderson, marina esmeralda]
’cause it’s screw meri
they say “home is where the heart is”
if mine is in the closet with the corpses, it’s fine
think i’d much rather be homeless
grateful that i made it in fore the—

sign reads: “gate’s closed”
can’t imagine ever letting my heart stay frozen
outside looking in, he, she, they’re broken
ain’t no rest for the wicked
so these days, hard to stay gold

[verse 2: byron henderson, marina esmeralda]
hard to come out clean from muddy terrain
surrounded by sheep, sometimes efforts are made in vain
both seen family fall and succumb to the streets
lost souls to the grind, gave in to deceit
look around, see the lies they sell
easy paths are one way, leading down that well
feel the weight of their eyes, their judgemental stares
they push you to the edge, nothing going for them, so they’ll never care
be a better judge of character, watch who you’re letting in your sp-ce
not everyone is your friend, you’re a giver and takers take
just because you have permission doesn’t mean that it’s right
stand firm, use your brain, keep the future in sight
almost mirrors, reflections in time
spent adolescence fighting shadows, finding ladders to climb out the abyss
make sure you’re walking in truth
home is where the heart resides, and mine used to be with you
guess things change like people do
my love is eternal, but certain things are unreasonable
fingers crossed you retain and apply the things that i’m teaching you
ain’t no leaders around you, so where are they going to lead you to?
besides oblivion
all i can say is try to be better than yesterday, nothing less
regardless of if your mother is nothing much to respect
you don’t want to walk around with a couple hundred regrets, do you?

eight ward, who bout that life?
ninth ward, who bout that life?
uptown, who bout that life?
if you’re scared, don’t come outside

sign reads: “gate’s closed”
can’t imagine ever letting my heart stay frozen
outside looking in, he, she, they’re broken
ain’t no rest for the wicked
so these days, hard to stay gold

[outro: marina esmeralda, byron henderson]
stay gold
i’m just praying that you stay gold
(who bout that life?)
(who bout that life?)
stay gold
too much time l!cking love up off of knives
if you’re barely fed with care, no surprise that you’re growing tired
woah
