Commencement versuri

Versuri Navy Blue – Commencement lyrics

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse]
I simply couldn’t fathom what it take
It’s like I was abandoned at the stake
Sought alliance on my shadow, cast a shape
When I was cast away to the East
I found gratitude and grace
I claimed defeat, I know that I’ma be okay
Sir Render taught me peace could be obtained
Give thanks for the house that I was raised in
Open palms under calm waves
I had undergone a long phase of self-harm
My brother Ocean told me, focus on my brave heart
While inchin’ closest to my hopelessnеss, I aim for the stars
Trust, it’s all in the perspеctive that I’ve gained from the scars
I cast a line, when fishin’ out the reservoir
I passed time with deep sighs and interlockin’ arms
I capsized, then I turned my life over to God
Mama didn’t give me life to just pick it apart
Mama told me I’m a light, I was dim in the dark
When I was at his shoulder height, and my livin’ was harsh
A sorry doesn’t make it right when my hands need a wash
Sir Render signed his name on the kindest regards
At every single nerve endin’, my journey will start
Reflect and let the curve bendin’ resemble an arc
Protect my only sense of brevity as I embark

[Outro]
He chose not to struggle anymore
With a supreme act of will springing from the very essence of his being
He had turned away from his life
And the long train of disastrous consequences that it flowed from
And looked wistfully on the dark face of ancient waters
Upon which some spirit had breathed and created him
The dark face of the waters from which he had been first made
In the image of a man, with a man’s obscure need and urge
Feeling that he wanted to sink back into those waters
And rest, eternally
