Redemption
Just around the corner - Just around the block
It’s waiting in the alley - Ticking like a clock
I’m reaching for redemption
But I can’t get there alone
I’m reaching for redemption
I need to get back home
It keeps me up at night – Tapping on my window pane
I need another chance now - A chance to heal the pain
I’m reaching for redemption
But I can’t get there alone
I’m reaching for redemption
I need to get back home
Just when you thought
you couldn’t get what you need
just when you thought
you'd lost the desire
Just when you thought
you couldn’t touch what you feel
That’s when you reach a little higher
Just when you thought
you couldn’t get what you need
just when you thought
you'd lost the desire
Just when you thought
you couldn’t touch what you feel
That’s when you reach a little higher
Just around the corner - Just around the block
It’s waiting in the alley - Ticking like a clock
I’m reaching for redemption
But I can’t get there alone
I’m reaching for redemption
I need to get back home
Ace Rangel’s song, Redemption reminds us of the troubled friendship between him and his best friend Isaiah ‘Steady’ Greene. At a crucial point in their friendship, Ace betrayed Steady. The incident left Ace haunted. He spent years hoping for an opportunity to redeem himself.
After being reunited with Greene, years after their painful separation, it occurred to Rangel that the opportunity to help put the band together offered him the chance at redemption he’d been seeking.
