Faces change
But this place'll stay the same
And I'm pickin' up another bag
And I pack another knapsack
The airport's like a stop light to me
Sittin' on red, green light go
My family grew into a global trance
Or fans, some may call 'em
And it's on the stage I stand
To jam Roxy
No wakin' up to stop the dream
I lived the life, signed a picture
'Cuz no dam could stop the stream
Or flood gates,
I'm in the fuck trades
And a pocket fulla culture condoms
They put you on the podium for first place
But on the block, they judge you on 'em
Who got the South in a six pack, and a shotgun just for show?
I'll put the white boys back in gold teeth
Put the hood in mossy oak
Child of a deadbeat, so I gotta give the beat some life
Beat me down with criticism, but at least the critic's write
With a broken pen, there they go again
I'm a token man, I'm a rollin jam
Like a rollin' stone, I'm closin in
I'm goin home, I'm home again
Bring it back up in the UK
Dixie flag
Catfish Billy
I'm just bein' blunt, homie
Keep the grass
It was something I was always gonna be
It seems these broken dreams don't lie
And so now my broken wings will fly
But if I take that break, there's a move you made
This dude you shape will come take you back
Back to the roots I've been
Without a fuckin' pot to pee in
Or a spot to sleep in
Hot or cold outside, it's not the season
Cuz I am not the reason
That the image you're used to seein'
Is usually being fake, so to me the hate is meaningless
Meaning yes, I'm different
And me screamin' the A
Is not the difference in grades
It's the place I stayed
Cuz the schools were underpaid
The teachers taught, but to me they fought
A star that was underway
It was under Wayne, it was in my name
Michael
M.W.A
Atha
And in trouble I stayed
Breakin out of this bubble they made
Played with the dice, but I rolled that seven
And I'll go back to heaven in a Chevrolet
Fuck the world with a tattooed hand
Committed to the words I say
A blood line's not a family tree
It's a needle in my skin for all to see
I ain't never got a spring break tattoo drunk
But I drink and take the ink
It was something I was always gonna be
It seems these broken dreams don't lie
And so now my broken wings will fly
