R-mean - I'm Leaving

Intro (Teo):
I`m going to a place far far far away.
I`m going to a place so far away.

Verse 1 (R-mean):
Failures are the seeds to our success and the pressure
to raise the stakes` a true concern
Try to make sense of a place where it takes mistakes
for you to learn
But it don`t
I left a copy just in case I choose to turn
But I won`t
Cuz where I`m going, well, only a few return
And I`m eager
It`s 3 in the morning - my mother`s asleep
I picture her weeping
Eyes closed so she`d think I was sleeping
I`m feeling tensed as I creep in her room
A kiss on her cheeks and I feel my legs getting weak
but it`s time to split so I`m sneaking out the window
Shit ain`t easy to be the child of a widow
Knowing you put her heart through the blades of a
thousand stilettos
But I ain`t got a choice, mama!
I drown or I peddle
I gotta go to..
"Shhh! Don`t say it out loud cuz the devil will hear
you"
I just grab my Bible from under my pillow and tear
through
Every flame in Babylon with no look in my rearview
Mama, I know it ain`t easy to let go
So I`m sorry for saying bye by leaving you this note,
but I`m.

Chorus:
Teo:
And I`m Leaving and I`m leaving (3x)
And I`m Leaving Babylon
R-mean:
I`m sorry mama, I`m gone
This just isn`t where I belong
Couldn`t find the strength to move on, so I`m.
Teo:
And I`m Leaving and I`m leaving (3x)
And I`m Leaving Babylon
R-mean:
Said I`m sorry mom, but I`m out
I`m trading bright lights for these clouds
Cuz this just isn`t what I`m about, so I`m.

Verse 2 (R-mean):
I don`t see what the fuck I`m doing chasing goals to
be honest
I met with triumph and disaster and they both was
impostors
Mama, just cope with these losses
Cuz I`m running like dirty water when I open this
fosset
I`m exposing the dirty clothes in my closet as I`m
writing you this
You know what my cause is
And by the time you read this I`ll be so much closer
to God
But all I see her the bloody needle she keeps poking
her arms with
The devil captured her body
Like 50 years of seizures got my uncle trapped in his
body
And plus he`s broke like a promise
And change ain`t in your pocket it`s within your soul
But these doctors murdered my father, will they murder
him too?
My whole family biting nails outside the surgery room
So nervous a few getting sick and regurgitate too
I`m just sick of all of this shit - I know it hurts
but it`s true
Cuz I`m just first, then it`s you
Mama, I know it ain`t easy to let go
So I`m sorry for saying bye by leaving you this note,
but I`m.

Chorus

Verse 3 (Teo):
Away from this greed I`m going
Away from this vanity
I can`t wait for the day that I`m leaving
Finally I`ll be free
My heart is bleeding to see the morning light
But I`m living this endless night
Convicting me for loving freedom
Convicting me for loving God
Trying to hold me down - down
Away from this greed I`m going
Away form this vanity

Mama, please don`t cry
Mama, please don`t cry for me
For me (2x)

Chorus

Verse 4 (R-mean):
Maybe I`m crazy but there`s demons in me
I fight `em through these dreams that I see
To the point where I`m scared to go sleep
And this the only way I can burry `em deep
This uphill battle`s getting too steep
Play it dirty like Harry and leave
This isn`t fair I just read a chapter of the Bible a
day
And I know I could attack you with a knife but I pray
It feels as if I feel the passion of the Christ in my
veins
That`s when my day converts from black to somewhat
lighter than grey
But all these good friends that have walked
In and out of my life without a footprint in my heart
And what about my girl? - She loves me so much it
hurts her
And the truth is she doesn`t know what she deserves to
So I`m creeping through the night
I don`t belong where wrong`s easier than right
And there`s no satisfaction even when dreams are
realized
All I want is get away from all these screams and
these noises
Love me or hate me - I ain`t leaving you with neither
of choices, cuz I`m gone.

Outro (Teo):
R-mean, R-mean! They`re trying so hard to put us down
Our friendship will never - never be broken
My meditation`s running so deep - running so deep
Telling me "Teo u just have to leave"
U just have to leave
R-mean, let`s leave..
