Absalom

The track fuses hip hop and operatic textures: orchestral strings and dramatic piano set the stage, Conscious rap verses unfold over crisp beats and subtle choir pads, A choral group joins for the hook, creating a powerful, chant-like refrain, building to a climactic, emotional peak

V4.5-ALL

[Hook]
"O Absalom, my son, my flesh, my blood, 
Why did you turn against me, why did you flood, 
 My heart with this sorrow, my soul with this grief? 
O Absalom, my son, my hope, my belief."

[Verse 2: Psalm 38:4-6 / Psalm 55:12-14 (Betrayal and Guilt)]
"It’s not from the enemies, it’s from my own kin, 
Absalom, my son, where did we begin? 
 I carry this burden, the weight of my past, 
The love that I gave, now shattered, not last."
[(Psalm 38:4-6)]
"My sins are too heavy, they're weighin’ me down, 
Feels like I’m lost, no solid ground, 
I’m bowin' to the pain, I can't stand tall, 
 My heart's been broken, I'm ready to fall."
[(Psalm 55:12-14)]
"You were my friend, we shared the same path, 
Now I’m stuck in the aftermath, 
Betrayed by my own, it cuts like a knife, 
A son turned against me, destroyed my life."

[Hook]
"O Absalom, my son, my flesh, my blood, 
Why did you turn against me, why did you flood, 
My heart with this sorrow, my soul with this grief? /
O Absalom, my son, my hope, my belief."

[Verse 3: Psalm 42:7 / Psalm 62:8 (Turning to God)]
"Waves crashin' over me, can't catch my breath, 
Drownin' in sorrow, feelin’ the depths, 
Deep calls to deep, and I'm lost in the flood, 
 But I’ll trust in the Lord, my refuge, my blood."
[(Psalm 42:7)]
"The waters of grief, they pull me under, 
But my faith still stands, though I’m torn asunder, 
Deep calls to deep, but I won't give in, 
 I'll fight through the storm, let the healing begin."
[(Psalm 62:8)]
"Pour out my heart, my pain to the Lord, 
In Him, I’ll find peace, my refuge, my sword, 
Through all this turmoil, He'll guide me through, 
 And though I’m broken, His love will renew."

[Bridge (Reflecting on Hope, Psalm 13:1-2):]
"How long, O Lord, must I wrestle with pain? 
Will you forget me, Lord, in the rain? 
 My heart’s heavy, my soul is torn, 
But in Your arms, I’ll be reborn."
[(Psalm 13:1-2)]
"How long will I mourn? How long will I cry? 
My spirit is weak, I can't tell why, 
But I’ll wait for Your light, I’ll wait for Your grace, 
And trust that You’ll show me Your loving face."

[Outro (Reprise of the Hook)]
"O Absalom, my son, my flesh, my blood, 
Why did you turn against me, why did you flood, 
 My heart with this sorrow, my soul with this grief? 
 O Absalom, my son, my hope, my belief."

[Verse 1: Psalm 6:6-7 / Psalm 31:9-10 (Grief, Weeping)] "Tears flood my bed, can't see through the pain, Every night I weep, and it's drivin' me insane, My soul’s wearin’ thin, my body can’t cope, As I face this loss, I’m drownin' in hope." [(Psalm 6:6-7 and Psalm 31:9-10)] "Be merciful, Lord, this sorrow too deep, My eyes can't see, can't even sleep, My soul’s weak from the weight of the shame, I’m callin’ on You to ease this pain."
