Build Me A House Lyrics

Traveled all over the world (all over the world)
To get all the bricks (to get all the bricks)
To get all the stones (to get all the stones)
But I just wanted you to know (wanted you to know)
That I ain't ready yet (I ain't ready yet)
'Cause I wanted more
Always more

If you build me a house
I might run away
'Cause there's places that I know my spirit never stays
Never knew what home is, oh
Do you know what home is? Oh

If you build me a house
I might run away
'Cause there's places that I know my spirit never stays
Never knew what home is
Do you what (do you know what home is?)
(Do you know what home is?)
Never knew (yeah)
Never, never

I find comfort in discomfort, pretty strange
One moment I settle down, next second I want change
Coping mechanisms that always remained
When you're used to self destruction, whose the one to blame?
I've known chaos all my life, so chaos what I chase
My therapist told me, "RIMON, slow down your pace
You got plenty love to give, but now it's time to take
You deserve the white painted walls, the flowers in the hallway"

But I'd trade them all for the highway
Shook hands with all of my vices
Storm is loud for those who are quiet
Hope one day your love is requited

'Cause you be too nice nice, I be too rough rough
You be polite-lite, I just be stuck
Got rid of the backpack, loaded with big rocks
'Cause I can't frame a picture that ain't mine

All I know is broken homes since I was just a youngin'
Damn, I hope the pain don't ever come and take me under
I'm used to the feeling on the edge, mi haffi hold on (whoa, whoa, yeah)
If you look into my soul it's empty (yeah)
It was me, my mama, my aunty (yeah)
Said the money was low, you kept me (yeah)
Double juggin' on the road, gettin' checks in (yeah)
Damn, I had to be the man at sixteen (yeah)
And the time was stuck and sticky (yeah)
She wanna get me stable, I'm slippin' (yeah)
But the PTSD just kicked in (damn)

Now you built me a house
And I ran away
Hope one day you understand why I just couldn't stay
Hope I know what home is, but
But for now I'm homeless, oh

Now you built me a house
And I ran away
Hope one day you understand why I just couldn't stay
Hope I know what home is, oh
But for now I'm
But for now I'm homeless
But for now I'm, I'm homeless
