Purgatory - Bobby Raps

Life beyond the world

Escape past the stars

To reclaim what was there

N' It’s dedicated

It’s dedicated

Now I’m snatching pills out of his hand

Now I can never talk to him again

But, I can still see that body on the bed

Only thing I can do now is keep it in my head

Is there Heaven for an addict?

Or is it just that feeling they chase but, could never capture

I see the devil hidden in these capsules

They be hiding in plain sight and suffering but, acting natural

Heading down the path to self-destruction

But, I could not follow

Now I’m shadow boxing with my conscious

While my soul gets swallowed

Had a hard time letting go

But, I can’t worry bout the things that I can’t control

No!

Led this life, it wasn’t noble

Only hope is to stay hopeful

Destined for more than this existence

Put him on my neck, I won’t forget him

It was over in an instant

What could I have done different?

Granny passed a week before he died

Family thought I couldn’t even cry

After funeral can’t even lie

Sobbing, tears, asking reasons why?

Never see his face again

The darkest demons find the purest souls to place to rest

Catholic service left my nerves distorted

Already gone but, I can’t help but worry

Is he leaving in eternal glory?

Or forever floating stuck in purgatory?

Now I’m snatching pills out of his hand

Now I can never talk to him again

But, I can still see that body on the bed

Only thing I can do now is keep it in my head
