@RAP101 - Atmosphere - The Last to Say lyrics

[Verse 1: Slug] As far back as he cares to remember He used to see his old man lose the temper And mama's pretty face would catch it all On a regular basis the nest would fall But he was always safe from dad's rage Cause mama sacrificed in his place Two-dozen years of the blood, sweat, tears Avoid the mirror, losing her hair from the fear She never left him, she stayed inside He beat her a** up until the day that he died In fact, the biggest beating was the day that he died Cause now it's too late for her to make a new life She gets to mourn for the touch of a punch Won't ever admit that she ain't clutchin it much Someday she'll die, it still won't be done The anger lives on through their son Cause he saw, he caught it all A childhood of watching ma and pa get raw It's too bad for him, nah, that's half the truth Cause you back with him now and he's smackin you What happened to you? You don't have a clue Did your mama used to suffer accidents too? I never knew that you would stand for abuse I guess I just a**umed that you would pack up and move Think about when you left him last time Said out loud that you would never forgive past crimes Sungla**es, so dark, scarf around the neck to cover the choke marks And since you gotta justify returnin' You convinced yourself that he's just a hurt person You wanna blame that cross he bears But his pop's not there when he tosses you down stairs [Hook: Slug] Let me be the last to say Please don't stay Let me be the last to say You won't be okay [Verse 2: Slug] Please put your shoes on and step into that warm weather Go get yourself a more better forever Gotta put it down, you gotta leave it And don't ever come back again, you gotta mean it Just tear it all apart and build new Cause if you don't k** him, he's gonna k** you You can't hold hands when they make fists And I ain't the first to say this [Hook: Slug] But let me be the last to say Please don't stay Let me be the last to say You won't be okay Let me be the last to say Please don't stay
