[00:05.95]Faces change
[00:07.38]But this place'll stay the same
[00:10.67]And I'll know
[00:11.99]When I'll go
[00:13.25]
[00:15.43]Yeah
[00:15.84]And I'm pickin' up another bag
[00:17.72]And I pack another knapsack
[00:19.28]The airport's like a stop light to me
[00:21.16]Sittin' on red, green light go
[00:23.13]Can't see my family
[00:24.71]My family grew into a global trance
[00:26.93]Or fans, some may call 'em
[00:28.62]And it's on the stage I stand
[00:30.13]To jam Roxy, no wakin' up to stop the dream
[00:33.46]I lived the life, signed a picture
[00:35.19]'Cuz no dam could stop the stream
[00:36.81]Or flood gates, I'm in the **** trades
[00:38.44]And a pocket fulla culture condoms
[00:40.07]They put you on the podium for first place
[00:41.79]But on the block, they judge you on 'em
[00:43.37]So
[00:43.93]Who got the South in a six pack, and a shotgun just for show?
[00:46.66]I'll put the white boys back in gold teeth
[00:48.75]Put the hood in mossy oak
[00:50.32]I'm the
[00:50.83]Child of a deadbeat, so I gotta give the beat some life
[00:53.61]Beat me down with criticism, but at least the critic's write
[00:57.01]With a broken pen, there they go again
[00:58.79]I'm a token man, I'm a rollin jam
[01:00.21]Like a rollin' stone, I'm closin in
[01:01.98]I'm goin home, I'm home again
[01:03.95]Bring it back up in the UK
[01:05.62]With a Dixie flag and a sixteen pack
[01:07.39]Catfish Billy, hell, you say
[01:09.07]I'm just bein' blunt, homie
[01:10.00]Keep the grass
[01:11.11]
[01:11.42]You changed me
[01:15.69]Into what I am now
[01:18.86]You made me
[01:23.08]It was something I was always gonna be
[01:26.00]It seems these broken dreams don't lie
[01:30.99]And so now my broken wings will fly
[01:39.87]
[01:45.98]Yeah, take one look
[01:46.94]Better yet, take two
[01:48.22]But if I take that break, there's a move you made
[01:50.04]This dude you shape will come take you back
[01:52.24]Back to the roots I've been
[01:54.18]Without a ******' pot to pee in
[01:55.80]Or a spot to sleep in
[01:57.22]Hot or cold outside, it's not the season
[01:59.61]Cuz I am not the reason
[02:01.19]That the image you're used to seein'
[02:02.85]Is usually being fake, so to me the hate is meaningless
[02:06.98]Meaning yes, I'm different
[02:08.26]Differently made
[02:09.48]And me screamin' the A
[02:11.25]Is not the difference in grades
[02:12.89]It's the place I stayed
[02:14.56]Cuz the schools were underpaid
[02:16.17]The teachers taught, but to me they fought
[02:18.05]A star that was underway
[02:19.42]It was under Wayne, it was in my name
[02:20.80]Michael
[02:21.40]M.W.A
[02:22.91]Atha
[02:23.39]And in trouble I stayed
[02:24.63]Breakin out of this bubble they made
[02:26.21]Played with the dice, but I rolled that seven
[02:27.73]And I'll go back to heaven in a Chevrolet
[02:29.60]**** the world with a tattooed hand
[02:31.28]Committed to the words I say
[02:33.00]A blood line's not a family tree
[02:34.70]It's a needle in my skin for all to see
[02:36.34]I ain't never got a spring break tattoo drunk
[02:37.95]But I drink and take the ink
[02:39.84]
[02:41.26]You changed me
[02:45.16]Into what I am now
[02:47.95]You made me
[02:51.95]It was something I was always gonna be
[02:54.95]It seems these broken dreams don't lie
[03:01.24]And so now my broken wings will fly
