Brevard County Blues

P.O. Box, voice mail in the sky
This is how I lived since I was five
Momma tripping, I ain't know we was hiding
Plus she never planned on saying goodbye
Waterfall, let the waterfall
That's the last thing she ever told a nigga
I don't know the meaning or her sole intention
I'm floating off into my own dimension
I'm on the beach, feel the sand in my toes
In the room in the house, I'm alone
Boil noodles if my momma wasn't home
Swear I felt like I was all on my own
They was saying she was raising me wrong
Truthfully I ain't give it much thought
Do it all in the name of the Lord
But i don't know what I've been praying for

I don't know what I've been praying for

I don't know why I've been praying
Really I'm just trying to find a little peace
Used to think that I just KNEW what it was
Now it's like the rug snatched from my feet
Why the fuck I'm always falling on my ass
While these pussy niggaz land on they feet
Trying to tell me all the shit that I ain't got
Like it's something new that I ain't never seen
Bitch, back back, gimme 50 feet
I ain't used to shade
Raised in the sun and the beach
Rarely won, but never run from defeat
But All this losing is really wearing on me
Niggaz ask me why I'm always with bitches
But good women really realer than these niggaz
Watch, you gon' see what I mean
Hell is home but girl you heaven to me

I'm trying to find my way back home
All of my life I've lived my life on the road
I'm trying to find my way back home
I don't care what it takes, yea
I'm trying to find my way back home
We all searching baby, you know how it goes
I'm trying to find my way back home
I don't care where it takes me

Maybe that's why I've been feeling blind
Niggaz always wanna put they two cents in
And never wanna walk a mile
Mixed women, but my liquor neat
You can't sit with us if you feeling cheap
See you think it is, but it ain't too deep
I'm out here stressing 'cuz I'm taking leaps
Why you tell me that I'm fucked up
Yes I know, it ain't that hard to see
Hard to see who even in my corner
When I don't know where my corner be
Hard to even say a nigga plugged
When I fuck up every other quarter p
Hard to say why I got pretty bitches
That I never beg, it ain't no "pretty please"
The universe got a funny way of coming
Full circle just to bless the team
Ain't no "god", it's the GOD in ME
Being me is all I want to be!
I wish you could say the same for you
But I could give a fuck about you wannabes
I don't mind if you can't always make the ride
But don't just sit and watch it when a nigga bleed
I can't lie
I feel some type of way that I can't explain
I guess that's ok
If I can't feel it then ain't nothing changed
And lord, you know how the times have changed
Y'all ain't really real, y'all ain't really cool
Y'all just really scared, I ain't really fooled
Maybe y'all should just tell the truth
I ain't never felt a kin to you

I'm trying to find my way back home
All of my life I've lived my life on the road
I'm trying to find my way back home
I don't care what it takes, yea
I'm trying to find my way back home
We all searching baby, you know how it goes
I'm trying to find my way back home
I don't care where it takes me

All of my life I done spent on the road
I just be trying to find my way home
Do I have a home, I don't even know
They tell me "we family", I still feel alone
They tell me "we family", I still feel alone
They tell me "we family", I still feel alone

I'm trying to find my way back home
I don't care what it takes me no
