Deathbed Lyrics by Wildcard

Setting the Bar

2007

Verse 1: Wildcard

When I was young my mom would help me put on socks
Put a hand on my shoulder, trust that she wouldn’t let me drop
I knew she’d love me that’s why she wouldn’t watch
Hold us up below outside of a wooden box
From all this shit I was doing I couldn’t stop
They tried to help me but they all just stood in shock
Sometimes I think of her face and I cry
As I was standing in this quicksand just waiting to die
But before that happened, I was on another platform
When I was little, they told me I was a godsend
That’s when my grandpa had took the place of my pops
Because my pops was still kind of lost thеn and
Do you get what I’m saying, babe, I’m exhaustеd
From all the trials and tribulations I’m boxed in
I feel like a kid that was put up for adoption
‘Cause from the jump they thinkin’ nobody want some
I wanna hug ‘em and tell ‘em but then I stopped son
‘Cause he don’t like to be hugged so what’s the problem
You better show him the love would never dissolve there
And you happy he’s in your life for the long run
You come again and maybe you need a broad, son
And you trip it because guys before you were godson
But if they love you keep them closer, that’s the option
But if they treatin’ you wrong and it’s the wrong one
And getting’ back to the situation I’m caught in
Perhaps I’ll know who we don’t always get along, man
But before you go just know this, you’ve had a good run old man
You’ll be missed

Chorus:

From the ones that love you the ones that disown you
From those that are righteous to the ones that will wrong you
In this life it doesn’t matter what you go through
On your deathbed there’ll be no one that will hold you

From the ones that love you the ones that disown you
From those that are righteous to the ones that will wrong you
In this life it doesn’t matter what you go through
On your deathbed there’ll be no one that will hold you

Verse 2: Dead Poet

Yo, I’m driving through this city on the vision I turned
Headed northbound, thinking about the bridges I burned
Driving home to an angel that I shouldn’t be havin’
Lord knows she been through hell that you couldn’t imagin’
I’m sitting in this empty car parked and I’m smokin’
Reminiscing, thinking back on all the hearts that I brokin’
Then I walked through the door and see those sky blue eyes and
Realize that my life is just like True Lies
They say beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder
Music lies in the mind of the composer
I never snitch, I got the silence of a soldier and
Sometimes at night I’d be dying just to hold you
Lucifer’s illusions be giving me lucid dreams
It’s quiet next to you and I’m usually used to screams
My music reflects the confusion in human beings
You seduced me like Medusa, your beauty is truly Queen
When I’m in that bed dying and those angels stand over me with black cloaks on
Holding satanic rosaries, just tell me that you love me and hold me close
‘Cause if you don’t I spend forever as a lonely ghost

Chorus:

From the ones that love you the ones that disown you
From those that are righteous to the ones that will wrong you
In this life it doesn’t matter what you go through
On your deathbed there’ll be no one that will hold you

From the ones that love you the ones that disown you
From those that are righteous to the ones that will wrong you
In this life it doesn’t matter what you go through
On your deathbed there’ll be no one that will hold you

From the ones that love you the ones that disown you
From those that are righteous to the ones that will wrong you
In this life it doesn’t matter what you go through
On your deathbed there’ll be no one that will hold you

From the ones that love you the ones that disown you
From those that are righteous to the ones that will wrong you
In this life it doesn’t matter what you go through
On your deathbed there’ll be no one that will hold you
