When he left this place he was 14
he had nothing but a notebook and ran into trouble
They day we were born our mothers cried because we were trouble
He had so much power so much going on inside that when we met I felt pride
He knew of music and dreamed the dreams of a teen
He wouldn’t let go
He just kept moving and running away to the bad lands
We used to record music and I remember this crazy cat
he wanted to be a dj. I’d be lying if I didn’t say
He was the one that made me this way
Escaped to Montana to find the devil waiting for him
Now 17.. He walked in hells fire
He let the demons take him over and ran with the shadows
He spoke of the Raven and the Owl as if he knew them
And he did.
There they called him pail for when he ran he would hide on the rez
because he had lived there 100 years before
He killed his soul
but it wouldn’t die
No matter how much he hated himself he couldn’t die
So he met the snake.. and talk as a demon
He told the snake his problems
about how he wanted to die and how his mother
hated him.. and his friends had died. and how even though his friends loved him back home
he never could go back to a place that didn’t feel like home
He was now 22 and like a gun he shot up
he kept the snake close
and it bit him. Sticking it’s fangs in its veins
While saying the the lords name in vain
He came back to the womb that he was ripped out of
He left the snake in place he could never go back to
He went to school got a job and a life
things were good..
Or so we thought nothing is over
and things have a way of coming back to bite you
and the snake did just that
The mother that left him no longer was there
the family he had tried to help
but the snake wrapped around his body and tried again to kill his soul
but he kept living
trying to kill yourself is hard when you have something to live for
and he met others that were bitten and then it was back to the gutters and
rooms with no windows.
He was alone
I talked to him and pray for him in the fire
Brother, I cried for my friend
but my life and his were connected
my friend was not dead but dying slowly and corrective
I saw him last and did some things
knowing that he was carrying the snake
I could see in his eyes he wanted to be released
I couldn’t help him so I cried
Now my friend is gone again
I’m hoping the snake dies
so he can be free
and all I could here was his soul saying brother
PRAY FOR ME!
