Stream of Tears
What's a dream to a guy like me
I won't fall asleep when the pain's too deep
All my life I tried to keep it inside
Now I know the cold, but I'm not alone, no, no, no
I'm a product of environments
Where violence the rhythm it'll turn you to a nihilist
Can't escape the family gene
It don't matter where you grow up if, they always cause a scene
I was fourteen, wearing skinny jeans, eyeliner
Dressed all black, playing raw sax, eyes widen
I was that man, in the jazz band, with the fro
Brother tap dancеd, Mr. Cash said, I'm the G.O.A.T
What's a dream to a guy like mе
I won't fall asleep when the pain's too deep
All my life I tried to keep it inside
Now I know the cold, but I'm not alone, no, no, no
We lost everything and got it back
Momma asked me why I got a rap
I said I got the type of story you can only understand if you live it
So it's natural, I push it to the limits
Who are we kiddin'? I'm more than abnormally gifted
I never fit in, I was isolated and different
Black and descriptive, in suburbia with a penchant
For independence and listening to inner wisdom
What's a dream to a guy like me
I won't fall asleep when the pain's too deep
All my life I tried to keep it inside
Now I know the cold, but I'm not alone, no, no, no
