TrueNorthSon - These Memories (Like Crows)

These memories fly by like crows
Crowding in my mind and
There they go
Picking at my past
Looking at my trash flow
And leave like crows
Leave leave like crows
Holding onto old Photographs in my hand
Back then no filter, we were living pre-instagram
Looking back Throwback Thursdays
This wayward child had gone long astray
Got my butt kicked into the dash ashtray
Paycheck to paycheck looking forward to payday
Life lived halfway
Running down the hallway
Seeking ways to play the game
Make a name, take the fame
Stay away from church cuz I thought it's lame
Blameshift to get away from all of my problems
Got the wrong equation so I can't solve them
Doing mental math
Subtracting rabbits outta my hat
Trying to extract myself out of my calamities
Caught captivated by my vanity
Saviour came into the frame to set me free
He rewrote the captions to my tragedy
These memories fly by like crows
Crowding in my mind and
There they go
Picking at my past
Looking at my trash flow
And leave like crows
Leave leave like crows
Shine the light on my negatives, see me develop
Envelop my life with your generous grace, embraced now I well up
In praise, I get a taste of reverence as I enter the place of your presence
Hope glows incandescent holds me pleasantly in the present
Holy ghost inhabits me, I host heavenly essence
Empty spaces of my past filled with divine lessons
Wasted years, I've tasted tears, repurposed in his investments
Nothing lost, nothing tossed
No more second guessing
No heads or tails, he'll never fail
I'm living on his promise
My certainty's in his word for me
Not wishing on a comet
My past has passed, my present vast and
He's grasping onto my future
Set sail, prepare the mast
All hands on deck, let's cruise here
These memories fly by like crows
Crowding in my mind and
There they go
Picking at my past
Looking at my trash flow
And leave like crows
Leave leave like crows
