Nmh - Cry the River Away Lyrics




Heart of a lion from kansas
Tip toe around the issues, nah im dancing
Screaming and yelling and getting no answers
Had more appeal when i was a romancer
Lanterns telling me safety around the corner
Outta border, but new ground im fearing
Im needin' TLC don't care about the order someone listening more than just hearing
And peering to see through the blinds,
Nobody home but he takin his time,
Persona remote, alma's face in my mind,
Inserting hope in all the pains that i write
Hurting coping just a day at a time
I'm verbal, open, no avail for the cries
Certain, hopeful, that a change'll arise
Cus what other way am i stayin alive
I try not to

Die a little each day
Cry the river away
Hide for a bitter escape
Finding the middle that safe

I ain't no chili pepper, i ain't got mamas gun
I been so effervescent, or so i've often sung
But all the doubtin around me don't know which way to face
The rooster crowing, the weathervane saying take my place
I walk upon the valley, with unfamiliar strength
But the sun and the sky looking with reconfigured gaze
"It's been a minute brothers, got some words of advice?"
They said "Hiding in fear of blinding can come at a price"

Die a little each day
Cry the river away
Hide for a bitter escape
Finding the middle that safe

Writing for people that may never listen
Every new word be creating some distance
Put in the work for the verses like fitness
All in the bidness, but this jus the lifestyle
Sunglasses on, they can't tell when i might smile
Target i aim n i'm up in the mic aisle
Paper airplanes with my problems i fight wild
Lettin it rang, try again w the right dial
5 miles left to the home stretch
All my fam texting asking if im home yet
Stay in the lines, deep breaths, lettin no stress
Get in the door yet, maybe i forfeit
Maybe got 4/5s left til the door step
And they waiting on my humble arrival
See me older, not as young and entitled and
See me shoulder with my thunderous smile

Awhile to wait
I feel like the answers are miles away
I feel like there's never a final delay
I feel like i just gotta hide or escape
Behind the drapes (huh)
But my feet are brightened by the light of the day
The heat that comes to me and say that i'm safe
I'm staying hungry jus to feed what is chained
I don't wanna

Die a little each day
Cry the river away
Hide for a bitter escape
Finding the middle that safe
