Back When the City Was People
Lyrics
Say what you mean
Speak from your bones
Dominos
Table to tile
City be wild
Learned to cope
Showed up with grams
Slammed that shit down
What's up now
Money on hand
Left about ounce
At the house
Don't look confused
Got drugs to consume
And abuse
Always asleep
No pillow
My head in a noose
Dreaming about when
The city was people
I knew
I feel the distance
When i am home
But i'm resistant to life
Losing track of time and places
Names and faces escape me
Believers in groups seekers alone
I'm walking the streets i'm checkin' my phone
Desire and regret my only opponents
The bars are closing my night getting started
I'm half in the bag for my dearly departed
Country of pain is keeping me guarded
The beauty from those wounds
Only blooms in the moonlight gardens
Coming at you live
From solar cycle 25, nigga
Where living for truth
Is a slow motion suicide nigga
Old ambitions, never even made 5 figures
And memories run deep
In an ocean kissing concrete
I feel the distance
When i am home
But i'm resistant to life
