I wanna leave this place
I can't believe this place
My father, he's a waste
My mother, she's on base
My brother, he caught him a case
My sister got cut in her face
My auntie, she's a disgrace
My cousins, the paper they chase
No love and just hate
Two hour hospital waits
Even when you vomit and shake
It's gotta be fake
Man, the cops clock us like them things on our wrist
I'm supposed to live like this?
It's getting thick
I'm thinking about taking a trip
Where? Anywhere but here
Prison, army, anywhere but there
I want some new shoes to wear
I wanna walk past all these cats
Asking what you doing here
You know what I'm doing here
I'm taking my last look at what I don't ever wanna become
On the block every day I fuss My guns bust
I need to hop that greyhound bus
Cause when everyone you say you trust turns on you
You know what to do
I wanna leave this place
Make all my thoughts slow pace
I'm tired of seeing you fall
I wanna lift you up
I wanna lift you up
But if you're making me drown
I have to let you down
Don't make me let you down
I grew up on many blocks
And moved to many spots
My brothers struggled through
And my sister grew
With disappointment too
Wishing we had a pops
Instead we had the cops
Taking these men in lock
Mama made bad choices, didn't hear our voices
We were just kids trying to raise ourselves
Odie and Patty, Leona and Mike
My Uncle Wayne too, thank you for being a light
I realize blood doesn't mean love
My mama would fight with the boyfriends at night
We got harmed, why did you keep the lid tight
I watched drugs and alcohol consume their life
Is this me? No it can't be
I wanna be the best Dad these girls ever seen
I wanna raise up, take the good in me
I wanna show my siblings we can be free
And be all the things they said we can't be
And be better people and paint this scene
I wanna leave this place
Make all my thoughts slow pace
I'm tired of seeing you fall
I wanna lift you up
I wanna lift you up
But if you're making me drown
I have to let you down
Don't make me let you down
