Hopsin - Your House lyrics
[Verse 1] Man, I don't even know what happened I was born inside of this sh*t My fu*king parents scrappin', I was mortified as a kid Police always at my house all because of my daddy's temper Man, this sh*t going on about as long as I can remember He always blamed my mom for this sh*t he didn't accomplish I'd hide in the corner like a guinea pig in the process Just knowing he's 'bout to smack the fu*king teeth out her mouth It's like when it came to some type of drama He got aroused, no joke There was the moments where dad was slowly be creeping up I would jump in front of my mama: "Please don't beat her up" I ain't never spoke on this sh*t, the memories erupt Smiles and hugs, that's just something you'll never see in us You know the pain when your parents tell you to go and play And hours later you see your momma, she got a swollen face I hope you don't relate, I just learned how to cope today From the days when I would pick up the phone and say [Chorus] I gotta leave here now My mom and dad acting crazy and this ain't right And they've been going back and forth for all night I wanna stay at your house tonight 'Cause I don't wanna to hear my dad fightin’ momma no more I don't wanna hear the police at the front door Can I stay at your house? I want to stay at your house tonight (Your house tonight) [Verse 2] I would go to school feeling so frightened, yeah, I was scared Not knowing if I'm gonna go home finding my momma dead Every other fu*king day, dad was always losing control He was acting like a fu*king ape, runnin' loose in our home Man ever since I was born they was pessimistic and torn It's evident, but regardless they never get a divorce God, I wish they got around it, just checking into some counselin' We could have been a happy family inside our house again I said again is if we ever were, that's false sh*t I dealt with growing up with will forever hurt, I'm lost We weren’t nothing like the families I used to see on the sitcoms We were horrible with bonds, I can no longer sit calm All I see is that my friends had a life at home that was peaceful They were lovable people, who didn't function like we do Oh how I wish I can redo the pain and the wicked days When I pick up the telephone, call a friend and say [Chorus] I gotta leave here now My mom and dad acting crazy and this ain't right And they've been going back and forth for all night I wanna stay at your house tonight 'Cause I don't wanna to hear my dad fightin’ momma no more I don't wanna hear the police at the front door Can I stay at your house? I wanna stay at your house tonight (Your house tonight) [Verse 3] I ain't placing the blame saying this is mom and dad's fault But all those traumas I had stuck with me as an adult And it ignited these mad thoughts that I seem to have often Yeah, that's Hopsin, music is where my last straw went Now I'm devoted to always give you my true life The love I never felt growing up I get it from you guys Please don't get it twisted, I love both my parents to death I just think these issues a lot of fu*king parents neglect We all got these traumas we carry and sometimes it's scary 'Cause we buried a nest, right there in our chest And we subconsciously air and project our nightmares and distress That we dealt with when we were younger And that's why therapy’s best, listen If you got kids of your own and you throwing Tantrums Don't be oblivious and assume that it won't impact them Children follow the protocol of their parents’ blueprint So when there's an issue, they might handle it just how you did [Chorus] I gotta leave here now My mom and dad acting crazy and this ain't right And they've been going back and forth for all night I wanna stay at your house tonight 'Cause I don't wanna to hear my dad fightin’ momma no more I don't wanna hear the police at the front door Can I stay at your house? I want to stay at your house tonight (Your house tonight)
