[Hook]
I was born in the city, I had no home
Had no place to turn to, I was on my own
Had no mamma, had no father, had no friends I had nobody to call on
What was I to do, what was I to do?
[Verse 1:]
Papa had a ginger, maybe that's what he was into
With her kids throughout the winter buying gifts for their December, man
It hit me hard, watching these kids tear their gifts apart
He got them PSP's and I ain't even get a Christmas card
I cried a lot, but I still tried to hide this dying heart
Lies or not, mamma's man was touching children's private parts
It made me sick thinking my sis was in this kind of spot
We're only kids we can't exist inside this kind of dark
Papa chose them, and then mamma chose him
All this sh**'s unfolding, exploding, it's hard to hold in
Feeling closed in, caring though they gave me this pain
Hoping that they notice that they're parents and then maybe they'll change, but
Papa's brother started f**ing his wife
And mamma had another lover every couple of nights
I had a dream I was careless, happy on a great path
Talking, walking with my brother down the train tracks
[Hook]
[Verse 2]
Mamma had a new man, papa had his step kids
Them kids, had a mamma papa was obsessed with
Mamma only cared about whoever she had s** with
So neither one could see their oldest child had a d**h wish
Mamma was a drunk, papa married a c*nt
And it kinda seems like this sh** just up and happened at once
So all this sh** that I bottled up and carried for months
Is getting swallowed in my pride like I had it for lunch
I'm moving on, because I'd rather be happy with who I actually have
Because I don't have to be mad about what's distracting me
Saddened over what practically happened to leave me happily
Attached to what I seen when Cupid started attacking me
Attracted me and you'll be glad to see that it set Aaron free
If this is all a dream, pinch me, because I'm fast asleep
I'm love drunk, I might need you to here to carry me
Because you're the drug to my addictive personality
