Chris Trent - Sampson Ave

My dad never was the same
I bet
I'd fall into a trap
I been running from my dad
I'm mad
I can smell it on his breath
Running around with death
I could never understand my dad
Trauma really hits
All starts when I'm a kid
I been running since I could walk
I been taking hits
Running around trying to be a kid
Can't when I gotta be inside
Can't end up like Jimmy I'm
Listening to Mama cry
Herself to sleep at night
Look into my mother's eyes
And when it coincides
With all these feelings I
Shut all these feelings down
I can't even feel 'em now
Numbness is my feeling now
Numbness is my feeling now
My Ma never was the same
I lost
Every part of who I was
I just wanted my Mom
Hold me just like this
I was just a kid
When I saw my brother dip out
I been all in my head
Trying to make something stick
Trying to make somewhat sense of this
How it could all make sense if Chris
Wasn't around
How could it be if I wasn't in town
I could be gone and it wouldn't be loud
They could be sleeping and I would be out
I would be out
I was praying to the One alone who's Holy
He was there when I needed someone to hold me
I thought I was all alone when I was lonely
But it was only silence
My God always stays the same
I was
Holding on to things that were temporary
I found love
In a God who goes like this
Came down and was kicked for me
Now He writes my symphony
My God
