lyrics

flashback
got the feedback
don't take me back
I want to go there
I want to be there
can you believe me for just once this time
I'm wrapped in silver
I'm hauling the chains
setting the sails again and again
mark the horizon
map out the lines
past to the present
I'm all out of time

why would you take my time away from me
someday
someday
why would you take that time away from me baby
filled the sky with a tropical storm
moving the trees all over

oil floods water
all drown in the wake
the black ships are sailing
the crew cant find the brake
klaxons are blaring
the admiral roars command
while submarines dive in oceans
and armies fight with the sun

yo yo yo
at 9 years old dad said touch grandpoppies fingers and they was cold
three days before
everybody cryin' in the bedroom
Ramiraz hit the floor
Natasha walked to him like her feet were sore
daddy took his glasses off
he said everybody loved him
we gonna miss him

Bobby was away
me and Kima didin't cry
mommy looked at daddy, and kissed em
they prayed

I loved Jesus
but now I was scared of him
It wasn't fair to me
how we get compared to him
why you take grandpa Grimes from our lives
he never got to see me grow up
my family disconnected
I fall in love with devil bitches
I get drunk and then I throw up
I write my life, you don't know how this hell feels
in my dreams I'm alive
when I wake up, I be dead still
OD off the red pill
