A-F-R-O - Redemption
I once walked a path, lost in the shadow
Drown in my failures, self that i battle
Life hit me hard, left scars, no tomorrow
But i rose from the dirt, put away the bottle
Lost in the basement, shattered and broken
Found salvation in words that i've spoken
Time to time again, pain be the motivation
Now i to rise again, no more hesitation
Stumbled in the darkness, but i found the light
In the mind and the heart, got me no more fright
Every lyric i spit, got a story to write
From the depths of despair to reaching new heights
And i breeze through nice, crowd reaction saying he too nice
But i don’t sleep good at night
Thinking it back to when i was on top
Now i think of the meaning, the words “fall off”
Fro gon speak, no need for disguise
Reborn, he swore, fire in my eyes
I don’t forget the setback be a lesson
I faced my demons, preach my confession
Turned truth into gold, with more progression
In the booth, i found my redemption
(verse 2)
I paint my story on the canvas of the beat
When i happen to compete for the plaque for the people
A phoenix in the booth, i claim my prize
Picket i get the proof that i’m able to thrive
And who am i? a-f-r-o, i was talk of the town
For a good amount of time, but i’ve fallen to the ground
And i crawl to the sound of applause, that i hope to come far
I embark ’til i’m dust in the wind
But i found me the freedom, and broke through the shackles
Find me a breather or close to collapsing
Often i’m eager to go for the platinum
But often i went through defeat to grab it
Musical magic, do gotta have it
Tellin’ myself to throw away them bad habits
Maybe i can manage the mess, at best
But soon enough, i know i can’t let it drag me
No more stitch of procrastination
No longer flinch, i’m back for the greatness
Song that i write from the fight that i been had
Wrong that i right, from my right to my left hand
Don’t forget the setback be a lesson
I faced my demons, preach my confession
Turned truth into gold, with more progression
In the booth, i found my redemption
