[Intro]
My beloved son Sage
I want to commend you on your choice to face your inner demons and follow the path of your higher self
Hope and inspiration are the gifts you bring
I see you working steadfastly to meet your challenges bravely and to keep evolving spiritually
You are a shining light in our family, your circle of friends, and to everyone your life and art touches
"Navy Blue" Sage Gabriel Carlos Atreyu
I am so proud of you
And remember honey
Even in the midst of all that is unjust, terrifying and evil, love still reigns supremе and conquers hate
So do not dwell in angеr
Enjoy life on this spaceship Earth and do great work
I love you
[Chorus]
Ain't nothing left to say when it's time
Thinking to myself, “We'll be alright”
Can't complain, not the same as I was
What a view, all the stars sittin' right above me
Ain't nothing left to say when it's time
Thinking to myself, “We'll be alright”
Can't complain, not the same as I was
What a view, all the stars sittin' right above me
[Verse]
Welcome to what I call praise
Give thanks
Mama birthed me and they named the boy Sage
My pain still present
I can't make it go away
My face known in the heavens
I got many of 'em, one a life
What a life we live
We fall from great heights
Just to learn we got more to learn
More to heal, I can't hide behind this smile
Like I hide behind the shield
Shadow stretching on the pavement
I don't know what's real anymore
Flashbacks by the tree at my core, corpses
With my Ori, l'm exploring
Ain't mean to spoil the story
This a warrior's tale
Told by my ancestors, “Make way up the hill”
And when I reach the top, sis
The moment was still
What's the verdict?
Your synopsis is brutally real, like it or not
Best to own up, you a grown-up now
Memories on memories, I can hold those proud
'Cause the other shit is cutting deep
A lot I gotta figure out
Another brother in the ground
A lot I gotta figure out
Another day the sun'll show
Another brother in the ground...
I'm just tryna make my Mama and my family proud
That's on everything...
I'm just tryna make ‘em proud
I know they proud of me
I'm tryna make ‘em proud
Tryna make ‘em proud
[Outro]
Bless Sagey, um, it's Dad, um, checking in
Hope everything's well with you
I just wanted to say how much I love you
And how grateful I am for you
And how grateful l am to have each other
Blessings and protection
