BABY BLUE ft. Bill Waves Lyrics

Point Breeze bitch

Ever since I activated my first Tracfone on a Blackberry, I've been acting like an asshole

Smile in your face, break in at night, throw your safe off the bridge and watch it crack open

That young dumb shit, it's a miracle that I ever got older

I did stronger shit than friends that died young, and I carry that shit like a boulder

Walking through a borage of bad omens, in Beltzhoover feeling so hopeless

I'll never forget my mom praying with her hand on my shoulder, when I was sick from the opiates

They should've found me lying, not breathing, on the 100 block of Pius

But I don't know what Helen would've told Miranda after coming home and finding my body like that

All the times I cheated and lied filled the tear water up to my neck

Until I almost I drowned in my own sorrow without ever finding a raft

All the lies they told me tryna blind me with thoughts about my fucked up past

Blaming shit on everyone else when I was the only one blocking my path

But now I'm the only one out of my city that's writing these verses like I am

Only few remember that delusional kid in that baby blue durag

Nike Cortez, Avirex shorts, Shortys hoodie, the kids in my class told me to stop dressing like I'm black

When I was dressing in what I had to be like the men I looked up to, because it just wasn't my dad, but it's all good that's not all bad

I remember he was at Columbia getting his masters, back in '95 looking at the Twin Towers from the bus in Manhattan

My mom couldn't afford a teddy bear but now it's weekly allowance and a skateboard ramp

How many times I flew off it could've been a thousand

In the late 90's brand new khakis and a Hardaway jersey it was Magic

Blessed to give thanks for what we had, over bread and cheeseburger mac, used to be a family of four but now we're four different families
