Buddha Blues
Redemption's Melody: A Journey from Darkness to Light
Lyrics
I killed a man to get in here
I took a life to gain entry here
Here I'll be for life
I will remain in this place for the rest of my life
The hardest of the hardest men
Referring to the toughest individuals
Step aside when I walk by
People move aside in respect when I pass
I was born an angry man.
I was born with a disposition towards anger
This is all I know
This lifestyle is all I am familiar with
I gave up on the human kind
I have lost faith in humanity
a long, long time ago
Abandoned trust in people a long time ago
Then one day a man came round
A man approached us one day
Put us to the test
Challenged us to reflect and contemplate
He said we're gonna sit right here and think awhile
Similar to Jesus' time in the wilderness
like Jesus in the wilderness
Initially thought the man was irrational
I thought that man was crazy
Days passed, and the contemplation continued
Two days on and on
Reflecting for two continuous days
Three days in the walls came down
After three days, a transformative experience occurred
And all my pain was gone
All my emotional pain vanished
For a long I was dying
Experienced a prolonged period of suffering
Blind but now I see
Once blind, but now I have clarity
Locked up here for all my days
Confined here for the remainder of my life
I am finally free
Despite imprisonment, I feel liberated
Alabama here we rest
Referencing a location, Alabama, as a resting place
Live in Light and Peacefulness
Choosing to live in light and peacefulness
