Byron Henderson - Long Live The Queen lyrics

[Part 1: Produced By Dru Era] [Hook: Byron] We can live forever baby x4 [Bridge: Byron] Just tell me what you believe in? (Just tell me what you believe in?) You're like a drug and I'm fiending (You're like a drug and I'm fiending) One way to know if I'm dreaming (One way to tell if I'm dreaming) Only way to know if I'm breathing I'm breathing... I'm breathing… x2 [Hook: Byron] We can live forever baby x4 [Part 2: Produced By Yoni] [Intro: Byron] Thank you [Verse: Byron] From a different cloth, not enough for y'all to be cut from it From a city where they tell you “Take the Nikes off, just run it” Either that or eat a bullet or a dozen, bleed on your own Another mother with a son that loved her, cops telling her that he ain't coming home I'm about seven, maybe eight Love is something they must not see Thugs shed blood then shed tears when they see their blood's blood leak Time and time again, lessons fall on deaf ears Peep the scene in the back, less fear Five years later, less peers, but my demons still follow me Hotline is nothing more than a dial tone, it doesn't bling much I don't bleed much Look around baby, life around here is just a rerun Could be dead Here's to the people that'll run their mouths, though they haven't seen much Just spread fear If they're sleeping, wake them all to d**h till they hear and see us [Interlude: Byron] Some things don't change. It's kind of like I'm here, but I'm not here. I mean you and Aaliyah are the only people that try to understand, and she's what, three? People don't realize how insensitive they are to anything [Verse: Byron] In my younger days, I remember people being slaves to the streets I was nothing but a runaway What a summer, they would just decay due to heat That would always make me wonder Maybe one of us could bring it all to a screeching halt Sipping malt liquor just to rid your thoughts quicker, sit in awe like it's your fault Then its gun rap, gun rap Run up on who shot your brother and you tell him run that Empty out the clip, and tell his dying body that he'd better never come back That's your life, but it's my right not to follow suit Because I ain't up for dying this young, screw a hollow tip, that's a hollow noose I remember certain days, nights Parties thrown, family coming through Never had a close relationship with anyone of them but an aunt or two Stayed next to my Dad, he would stray away to the living room with few people I would never say much to, writing thoughts down on a sheet of paper, dog what's new? Where to run to when I just knew my city layed me a grave The more I tried not to succumb to that life, it made me insane Funny how things change so much, now y'all don't know with what y'all are dealing Been here for 13 years plus, and the only thing I did lack is feelings, but [Hook: Byron] We can live forever baby I'll never see you wetter baby Than when your tears hit the blood that stained your sweater baby We can live forever baby We can live forever baby I'll never see you wetter baby Cause if I'm here, then we can get through this together baby We can live forever baby [Verse: Byron] So much that I want to say, it's like I don't breathe much Never had someone to just shut up and listen while I vent until I met Marina Even fell out with my aunts due to drama, and I rarely speak to sisters either As if I came out the womb suicidal, due to do some damage to your speakers I've been trying to live a life worth living, just look at who's died, y'all Because only past Presidents are worth more dead than alive, dog See it's evident that y'all think it stems from unhappiness with myself But it's been F me, I'm too worried about the world and everybody else I've been frustrated, and it s**s lately because my depression keeps fluctuating So I must say, it's like every single freaking day, I wake up suffocating Smothered basically, thinking why the F am I here? When you cried tears, dog, I confess when those bullets missed and we met Tony I smiled at you as you smiled at d**h like… [Hook: Byron] You can live forever baby {fades} [Outro: Byron] I know y'all don't know me well But I know God is watching over me Feel like you just want to see me fail In due time, you'll walk over me Why don't you want to see me help? We're all dying and there's no reprieve I feel lost and they just tell me its ok, but there's no relief Sometimes, I want to k** myself Sometimes, I don't feel myself But when I start giving up You help me heal myself Nope, they won't feel my pain They tell me to live it up I think I'm going insane They won't ever get enough Sometimes, I want to k** myself Sometimes, I want to k** myself But when I start giving up You help me heal myself Sometimes, I want to k** myself Sometimes, I want to k** myself Sometimes, I want to k** myself Sometimes, I want to k** myself {gunshot}
