Natural Release - Brent Faiyaz

She come from a hostel place

Bruises on her pretty face

Traveled to a foreign land

married to a foreign man

The oceans blue and the weathers nice

But life is far from paradise

She picks up a magazine

And she’s turned on by what she sees

Close the door and shut the blinds

She’s about to ease her mind

Thoughts of peace and happiness

Travel to her fingertips

He comes home to rest his head

He walks upstairs to go to bed

He hears her moaning through the door

He goes downstairs into the drawer

He sees a box and takes it out

Then aims the gun into his mouth

She hears a bang and she runs downstairs

To see her husband lying there

Close the door and shut the blinds

She fights off tears and dries her eyes

Thoughts of peace and happiness

Are gone

Gone

In just an instant.
