Description
I was thirteen, wired, wrong, nerdy, I was thirteen, wired, wrong, nerdy, I was thirteen,
wired, wrong, nerve sparkin’ like exposed wire, brother pushin’ buttons just to watch me catch fire, I never blacked out. Everything stayed clear in my mind, but the anger lived louder than reason, lightnin’ when no time, I grabbed knives, cause I didn’t know how else to stop the storm inside. And one day I called the law on myself, cause I didn’t wanna watch my brother die, they threw me in cells meant to break roman, boot camps, YDCs where ten kids jump one, cause pain repeats itself again and again. Everybody said I was the
problem, but nobody ever asked why my soul shook like that, or why the fear in my chest felt like a lifetime trap. This ain’t a blame song, it’s the truth we all keep runnin’ from, selfishness is the poison, turnin’ every home numb, we’re shadows in dust.
And we forget what love does, when honesty is gone, and lies become the crutch.
My twins came into this world, and I tried to be better than my past, but the one I trusted most put scars on them that'll forever last. They looked at me, not her, judged me on the ghost of who I used to be, never cared enough to hear the facts, so believe what I could see, my aunt lied, in prison called me back, and while I sat in a cell again, they signed my kids away on a cold contract, now they grow callin’ strangers mom and dad, and I swallow that hurt whole, cause what else can a father do when the world calls him wrong for a crime he never chose.
This ain’t a blame song, it’s the truth we all keep runnin’ from, selfishness is the poison, turnin’ every home numb, we’re shadows in dust. And we forget what love does, when honesty is gone, and lies become the crutch.
And maybe she's right, cause life been a winner, for as long as I can measure, thirty years I tried to speak, but no one ever heard the words, they only heard what they feared, called me lazy, called me.
