lyrics
Follow me on this path that I’ve been walking
The devil’s footprints are the ones that I’ve been stalkin
I hear him talkin
Drop a coin to take a ride on the river Styx
Never thought I’d be the type to ever go and visit this
But to see you, I would sign that permission slip
And in the dark you, would shine with the prism lit
Before I go, I would take a little dip
Fully submerged to make sure my Achilles in
As Charon ferries me, I know your spirit carries me
Give Hades warning so I know that he's prepared for me
Chaírete my friend, my friend
No Antio, implies it’s the end
But you know what they say,
Life after death,
And you know that we pray
For what comes next
And while I’m there, I’ll make sure to grab Persephone
And if I fail, she’ll make sure that you rest in peace
Through the gates of Olympus we stroll together
Your body is gone but know the soul is forever
So as I wake, I’m at your wake
But this I say, this I pray, hey
If everything around me is burning
How can it be I feel so cold
As the wheels keep on turning
What does it mean to not grow old
All the things around me are burning
How can it be I feel so cold
As the wheels keep on turning
What does it mean to grow old
I never believed in karma
Until I saw your momma
She crying because you gone
I cried and said I got ya
I can feel you in the river, I can feel you in the trees,
Through a soft summer breeze slowly moving through the leaves
And all I ever asked was the power to believe
And protection from the ones that have the power to deceive
So in a forest of redemption let me right all of my wrongs
Amongst the broken limbs I would write a simple song
About the time we were explorers
And the world would just ignore us
So let me rap the verse and you can take the chorus
Cause though you left, you’re with me all the time
Inspired every cadence, and every single line
And if I ever deviate you send me all the signs
That I never walk alone and you’re with me in a bind
And just know I love you and I’m truly sorry
I didn’t ever tell you man and that will truly haunt me
But if I know you, then I know that you would want me
To keep moving through it, even though it can be daunting
So here’s my prayer, and I’ll meet you there
And I can bring the six pack, and we can have a kick back
But not yet, I’ll see you again(and until then), Lord hear my prayer
Amen, Amen, Amen
