Build Me A House
Travelled all over the world (all over the world)
To get all the bricks (to get all the bricks)
To get all the stones (to get all the stones)
But I just wanted you to know (wanted you to know)
That I ain't ready yet (I ain't ready yet)
'Cause I wanna move, always move (move)
If you build me a house, I might run away
'Cause there's places that I know my spirit never stays
Never knew what home is, uh
Do you know what home is? Oh
If you build me a house, I might run away
'Cause there's places that I know my spirit never stays
Never knew what home is, uh
Do you know what
Do you know what home is?
Do you know what home is? (never knew)
Yeah, mm (never, never)
I find comfort in discomfort
Pretty strange
One moment I settle down
Next second I want change
Coping mechanisms that always remain
When you're used to self-destruction
Who's the one to blame?
I've known chaos all my life so
Chaos is what I chase
My therapist told me "RIMON (slow down your pace)
You got plenty love to give,
But now it's time to take
You deserve the white-painted walls,
The flowers in the hallway"
But I trade them all for the highway
Shook hands with all of my vices
Storm is loud for those who are quiet
Hope one day your love is requited
'Cause you be too nice, nice
I be too rough, rough
You be polite-lite
I just be stuck
Got rid of the backpack
Loaded with big rocks
'Cause I can't frame a picture that ain't mine
Haulin's on these girls, came home since I was just a youngin'
Damn, I off the pain, don't ever come and date me under
I'm used to the feeling on the edge me I feel all young
Woahh woah yeah
If you lookin' at my soul, it's empty
It was me and my mama, my auntie
Said the money was locked, you kept me
No more jiggin' on the road, n*ggas check me
Damn, I had to be the man at 16
And the time won't stop, it's ticking
She wanna get me stable, but I'm slipping
But the? they just? damn
Now you built me a house and I ran away
Hope one day you understand why I just couldn't stay
Hope I know what home is, uh
But for now, I'm homeless, oh
Now you built me a house and I ran away
Hope one day you understand why I just couldn't stay
Hope I know what home is, uh
But for now, I'm
But for now, I'm homeless
But for now, I'm homeless
To get all the bricks (to get all the bricks)
To get all the stones (to get all the stones)
But I just wanted you to know (wanted you to know)
That I ain't ready yet (I ain't ready yet)
'Cause I wanna move, always move (move)
