I'm Dying of Thirst.
Layla's got you on your knees, bitch
What is life?
What's it mean?
Mother save me
I'm dying of thirst, your baby
Every day you told me I was crazy
That shit made me
Crazier than anything.
Grew up Brooklyn in the 80s
Didn't have a family, suddenly
Brenda's got a baby
Could've sold her body
But Brenda had a brain and went to college
Momma, all I ever wanted, was to be like you
Momma, why'd you have to talk like
I love you but I don't like you
You know what that do?
Used to love the color yellow then my turned world blue
You'll never know the shit I went through
Now older, bipolar, reborn, take two
What is life?
What's it mean?
Mother save me
I'm dying of thirst, your baby
Every day you told me I was crazy
Stuck in bed, depressed not lazy
I lived with you but I raised me
Step-daddy pissed he couldn't phase me
Broke my wrist and didn't call the cops
It was Christmas, God as my witness
Over and over and over I died
Thousands of times I have cried
Tried to convince me the truth was a lie
The greatest of all crimes
Said goodbye now I'm ready to fly
High on my own supply
Plucking daisies asking if you hate me
Running on fumes, I'm empty
Dying of thirst
2020 Was the worst
But it wasn't the first
What is life?
What's it mean?
Mother save me
I'm dying of thirst, your baby
Came from you but I really made me
I'm young to the game but I wouldn't trade me
Used to break down in my dorm room
Now I break down form like I was born to
I don't follow rules - maybe just
Love yourself like God loves you
That's 1 and 2
Broke my chains and I flew through the sky
Had to know "What is life" before I died
Left for Colorado, and I've been, a mile high
The kid is alright
Dance alone in my room every night
Count the stars stronger than city lights
An angel told me once
I'll never walk alone because
I shine so bright
What is life?
What's it mean?
Mother save me
I'm dying of thirst, your baby
Every day you told me I was crazy
That shit made me
Crazier than anything.
