I Bark
Been locked up
I been cast out
Its a glass house
And I'm barking mad
Give it all up
And they throw it away
Social distance
Protecting the babe
Never got much
But they take it and say
Got any more please
Have a shit day
All of these haters
On my case
Franki Barker
They're saying my name
I Been locked up
I been cast out
Its a glass house
And I'm barking mad
Give it all up
An they throw it away
Social distance
Protecting the babe
Never got much
But they take it and say
Got any more please
Have a shit day
All of these haters
On my case
Franki Barker
They're saying my name
They think I've got too much pride
They call me vain and stuck up
Do they know the weight I lift
Or the shit that I went though just to lift my chin up
So before you wish you've done the things I've done
Know that there's struggle and there's sacrifice
It's like going to hell and back
Are you prepared go ahead if not then shut the fuck up
Like its alright for me
Like I've got it easy
Do you know for all this opportunity
I had to make my eyes bleed
No one will ever know my story
But they always hating the glory
The judges the bullies the haters and users
They don't like the life that I lead
Couldn't walk a day in my boots
From mile end to poplar walking bare foot
Mum got drunk and called the police
And it happened every fucking week
Running home half stoned
Just to check that she was breathing
Front door wide open
Who knows who had been in
And that's when I fell in love with a waste man
Do you know how it feels to be all alone in a six bedroom home
Be in fear for your life or get threatened with a knife
Have a fight an wishing that god would just shine the light
I don't hate her or blame her at all
But these are my memories
Not trina be a bitch or a snitch
I don't want no more enemies
no no
Don't get me started on the money
Thousands ripped up in my face
Daddy promised me a pony
But he got rich an abandoned place
Don't worry he came back when his money run out
And she kept drinking he kept skitzing out
Temper temper black and blue
Ribs eyes belt buckle
Sometimes I wonder I wanna recover and I wanna heal
When I was a kid I was told not to grass
An that's why I barely spoke I just wrote and wrote
It was just so I could cope
I'm sorry tho
I feel like I forgive and forget
And instead of earning respect
They cross my lines and
Get me vexed
They think I'm soft but when I bite it they don't like it
And they pull the crazy card on me
But if everybody's acting then I'm bad
Because I'm real and I am free
Coz I say how I feel
And people see it as weak
But if you been silent for all your life and now you
Get the chance to speak
They wanna take away my freedom
Wanna put me under quotation marks
Wanna tell me to be nice but
Franki bites and Franki barks
An I give them all my heart and then they squash it in the dark
How many people have to hurt me before I stop driving and park
And if you ever needed help believe you wouldn't have to ask
I'm just trina live in peace just trina focus on my art
Heart is heavy always loving getting hate
Everyone thinks because I'm nice I have an agenda but anyway
I'd rather be killed than live a life where I ain't free
Don't have it in me to pretend sometimes I wish I did
They love you when you're of use to them but they dash you when you ain't
Counting the days til the death I got to live now I cant wait
Other peoples bullshit
I don't need it
I've lived a long and painful life already
I will reach a point where I can afford to smile
But for now
I bark
I Bark
I Bark
I been cast out
Its a glass house
And I'm barking mad
Give it all up
And they throw it away
Social distance
