The Last Favor I Owe You

“I kept my word the best I could. You just didn’t live to see it.”

You left your boots out by the door, Said you’d be back, not anymore. The trail ran cold, the truth ran thin, And I’ve been ridin’ since way back then.

They said forgive, but I ain’t built that way, Not for what we lost that day. I don’t hate you, not anymore, But I can’t forget what mercy’s for.

This is the last favor I owe you, And I’ll see it through alone. One promise, one gun, one truth — To pay the debt that’s grown. This is the last favor I owe you, And then I’m finally gone.

I found your name carved in the pine, Still hear your voice cut through the time. You said, “Don’t lose your soul for gold,” But revenge gets loud when nights get cold.

Now every dawn feels like a cost, Another piece of what we lost. I hope you’re proud, I hope you see, The devil learned this code from me.

“I ain’t comin’ back to make it right… Just to make it done.”

This is the last favor I owe you, Before I fade in dust. No saints, no songs, no holy view — Just one thing left to trust. This is the last favor I owe you, And that’s enough for us.

This is the last favor I owe you, And I’ll pay it in lead and flame. You said my heart could still be true — But truth still speaks your name. This is the last favor I owe you, And I’ll see you when it’s done.

“Sleep easy, brother. I’ll finish what you begun.”
