Home Is Where The Food Is

Was it, was it, was it ever you?
Was it, was it, was it ever me?

I know that I been here last week
Pedal bikes strange but they charged with the army
Had shards to clean those car keys
Even when the outside armed do for me
Fruitless nights getting bore me
Another day of saying that same old story
When it's grey and the rain been pouring
Up on the line and my heart beat soaring
It was 7am on a free weekend to the end and my heart still sings
I got cards and they carrying scars but
The messages passed to the next of kin
Through sun there's no tucking in
Like the warm might have passed but there's still left skin
I was stuck, had to spill this drink for
The lust of the game and the ills we sin
And the chills that we bring got thousands
Of lights in my eyes and I'm solo blind
It shouldn't come as no surprise that I
Couldn't go down till my lifetime rise
Can't end the same way we arrived and I
Did it with a style and all with a smile
Been on tryna roll for a while
Been stepping on toes and I've gone for the mile
This game really took some patience
Back I was young but never been aimless
Been on tryna go through changes
Coming so close I could almost taste it
Feel the shame when I needed those faces
Said that I'm through when I leave this day shift
Back then been living so basic
Put the pedal down, I'm off and I'm

Don't hold me up to shoot me down (Bang, bang, bang)
I wish I never let you in (Hold my hand)
Even though I needed rescuing
I'm choking up, my guard is down (Bang, bang, bang)
Are you even listening? (Shh)
I'm stronger than I've ever been
Was it, was it, was it ever you?
Was it, was it, was it ever me?

Yo
And the bearer of chasing, scanning out ways to make the dream burst
Standard, they don't need placement
Best understand why the team just works
I planned it, now it's the season, I was
Out dealing with a scheme for the purse
They told me prepare for the worst and I
Guess for the heart it's not what it's worth
But this life ain't a blur, had to
Separate lines from my family's worth
My bloodline gave me this earth and I tried
Being first and I swore that it's earned
Now I'm flying, I was poor at birth, had to
Grind for the diamonds out from the dirt
I'll stand with an unstained shirt and I strive
For the bros and the ways that we learnt

Don't hold me up to shoot me down (Bang, bang, bang)
I wish I never let you in (Hold my hand)
Even though I needed rescuing
I'm choking up, my guard is down (Bang, bang, bang)
Are you even listening? (Shh)
I'm stronger than I've ever been
Was it, was it, was it ever you?
