Lyrics
Never had a house, that's why I don't feel at home
Got blood across the globe, I might never get to know
Oh, never get to know, no
Forced to enjoy contradictions in my life
Used to make a noise, but what the fuck is making time
Only know to cash it in for food to survive
Shit I would've loved a nine to five
Instead, think along the lines of ten am to ten at night
Spending months on end with my grandma casting prayers over my life
Cause she knew the road I was destined for
Chances low to make it anywhere past 24
Born in the city where they put heat to your head if you seem cold
Caught a glimmer of gold before I ever felt hope
Tried to raise my brother and that's the shit that kept me home
I was raising my mother and that's the shit that made me grown
Believe me, I've been in and out the gutter
Birds was spraying shells, we ain't have no cover
Even in 08, we still knew, ain't shit change
Cause to this day, we know family stuck in a cage
That's why I wake, say my thanks and wash my face
I got cards with no leverage, but they ain't even allowed at the table
How can I not take advantage of my angle
Shit's been rough for me, but that's a whole nother danger
Same reason I can't sleep, cause I gotta earn some paper
To jot lingers in the midst of my vapors
Used to have a grip on life, but now I just ain't sure
Never had a house, that's why I don't feel at home
Got blood across the globe, I might never get to know
Oh, never get to know, no
Swear I just gotta make it out
Cause in this world, if there ain't no money, ain't no how
Keep your head straight, hand raised and safe face
Use pain to work harder day by day
Things my mama used to say are the reason
I'm on my way to world stages
More I keep aging, the less I wanna be famous
But oh well
This better than the grave or cell
Letters and phrases, doing numbers on myself
Symbols on every page, it ain't hard to tell
Give it my everything till my everything fails, bitch
Never had a house, that's why I don't feel at home
Got blood across the globe, I might never get to know
Oh, never get to know, no
Swear I just gotta make it out
Cause in this world, if there ain't no money, ain't no how
