Odyssey 04:06
This whole past year’s been real weird Things appeared to shift gear when January premiered Sincere promises made here with clear beers I persevered to cheers you on New Years when fear neared Skip a couple weeks, warm hands, and cold cheeks Snow falling, you calling me, Mr meant to be And I pretended like whatever whatever But it was in the month of may I’d say I’d stay there forever Cold frost clears and snow stops falling Love blooming overhauling FaceTime calling I’m recalling all the love that I was falling in May turns to June and pretty soon I saw us moving in, within A little two flat, that sat back on train tracks A place with just enough space to stay back and relax, Painted dainty towel racks all of your favourite shades of blue And I saw Atika, Olympia, the pieces of you Ecstasy, in the truth Spring turns to summer Trees discover colour, giving cover like a mother Work was tougher and uncovered stress that we was under But grand plans at hand meant I still loved her like no other 2 months all under it, and working back to back Stacking nothing close to racks, but I was happier with that I came home alone to you and you was sitting mad pensive With stick in hand, and strip that had confirmed that we was positive Oh my lord, but all my worries Barely in our twenties we was worried we had hurried Hearing stories of blurry unsturdy, families that carried And we was loved, and we was warm, and we was safe, and we was happy Like really happy, like, maybe we might get married like Imagine this happening, like, way back in January like Things felt right, I ain’t wait to see it through And I saw Atika, Olympia, the pieces of you And that’s the truth But now autumn starts a-calling Leaves on trees falling, your feet and knees stalling These fees all squeeze calling, me please, I’m withdrawing Unease be installing, And life was never boring Then one morning you calling me, cause you was getting sicker Like can’t you get here quicker, and I ain’t mean to bicker But I figure I could tell her I’d be home in time for dinner Cause bills was getting bigger, and Mumma ain’t raise a quitter Mid-Winter, 4am light flicker Something been feeling wrong, so you called your mums ringer Grabbed me by the arm, alarm I felt as you began to shiver grey quicker you shouting into the mirror like, I’m sicker like 999, all is not fine, I fall in decline, cause now’s not the time Said thinks will be fine, be here anytime But they taking long, this feeling wrong, I’m scared of the signs, scream Emergency, urgency, I need you to converge on me I need peace as a courtesy, I need harmony urgently All these hospital porters be rushing straight with they orders, but seeing Patients before us, I’m screaming please don’t ignore us And no-ones there to care for us, therefore I’m tryna stand for us Transported in to some quarters, with Doctors trying to warn us They said they sorry for all this, but there be no more care for us I’m crying no you’re wrong for this, but they just closing they borders Relationships trickle a little Like icicles it’s simple Till sides split all the people That’s civil with you down the middle So you slip until you, ripple down your wall Saying fuck all of this year And this year said fuck you all And if there’s really peace for me Well maybe that’s the ODYSSEY And If I really need to leave Well maybe that’s the ODYSSEY But I’ll be back around you’ll see Well maybe that’s the ODYSSEY Wish I could call it prophecy
