Dark Side of the Son Lyrics by El Sancho (ontario)

The Purge

2021

(Intro)
What's happening, everybody?
Allow myself to introduce....myself
For the first time ever, truly live and direct
A lot of things that took me here. And a lot of things I regret
Let's start at the beginning...
(Verse 1)
Surprise of the century, I haven't been a saint
If I told you who I really was, you probably would faint
Only showed you what I ain't, never showed you what I am
I was terrified nobody would respect me as a man
But it's been near 30 years, time to come clean
Literally gеt my shit together and shake thе scene
Shot away much too much time, know what I mean
Then I woke up in the middle of a horrifying dream
Or was it a nightmare? Hell yeah, that's more accurate
Everybody falls, though I wish I was immaculate
If only I could just be the man that you raised
But that dude's been in a coma since Canada Day
I don't know why I've been trying to kill him, I just have
Fuck that, cause today redemption's a must-have
I ain't really trying to get down on wallow in pity
But it's time I tried to either get better or busy
(Chorus)
I've been down but I'm OK
I'm only trying to find my way
But no one ever showed me how
(Lost and found, that's always how it goes down)
You can find me out here somewhere
On the dark side of the sun where no one's left to see you cry
(No place to hide, I'll see you on the other side)
(Verse 2)
I'm sorry for the times that I hurt you
Sorry for the drugs that drove me to desert you
Most days I feel like I don't even deserve you
It's a wonder how you stuck around long past curfew
Damn, with friends like these who needs demons
I'm finally trying to wake up from some deep sleeping
I can't even tell if I'm ready to seek treatment
Cause with idle time, self-destructive thoughts keep creeping
Like "this is where it always goes south", no doubt
It's a reflex to flip but I'm trying to hold out
I've been so unreliable and zoned out I bet you
Wouldn't buy a word I said if it was uttered from your own mouth
And I don't want to do my dirt all by my lonely
But on the trust tip, I kind of murdered all my homies
Just know, I'm right here to bring you back to life
No regards for the price paid with the sacrifice
(Chorus)
(Verse 3)
I always thought you were the one that got away
Then I came to realize you were simply not afraid
To be all you could be, but I had reservations of changing
Hence the hold-up and hesitation
You had dreams of scaling the United Nations
I was happy getting up at noon wake-and-baking
We were not the same and I knew it from the start
But I had to do something to retrieve my stolen heart
Didn't do enough, real talk, I didn't even try
To this very day I have no good reason why
Now I reminisce how we could've been a power couple
If I wasn't too busy getting in and out of trouble
But it's too late now, we're in different universes
Every day I think of that decision and I curse it
I wish I could've been everything you deserved
The only evidence I have is everything you just heard, I'm so sorry...
