Perry Lane

Uh, just went to the urgent care
Scared I had a heart attack, my cardiac was Jordan Air, uh
Just got out the urgent care
They said I'm perfect, it's anxiety that's killing me, I stop and pray

I just pulled up to Chick-fil-A
They got the order wrong, was trippin' on 'em
I forgot to show 'em grace, is there enough to allocate?
So I drove to Crumbl, caught some cookies, put six in a tray
They said, "I play your music every day"
Then it hit me that this carry weight

So anyways, went right back to Chick-fil-A
Asked for the manager, he came to me, smiled in my face
I gave the cookies and apologized for today
He said, "My brother, listen, it's okay
Congratulations on your baby"
Then it hit me that these people watchin' every single move I make

Like the way we dreamed (oh) way back in Perry Lane (yeah, oh)
Way back in Perry Lane (oh, oh)
Oh, oh
Oh, oh

Just got to school at 7:38
Look at the locker, I don't see my name
I look again, maybe just in case
Went to the coach and asked him, "Aye, what happened full of hate," uh

Full of confliction when I seen his face (oh)
There go the man that took my dream away, uh
Couple hours later in the day
I tried to focus on the class, but could not escape

Turned to my left, saw the assistant coach and told him
"Hey, why didn't I make the team?" He then went on to explain
"You had support from the head coach, but we ain't choose the same
So shift the blame," it hit me and I felt the weight

Anyways, I just got a text from 'Crae (oh)
Said I need counseling to dig up why I feel this pain
I keep assuming everyone around me feel a way
I guess I'm scared to get cut, just like eleventh grade

My dad called me the other day (oh)
Told me he went back to the gym where I couldn't play
Coach said, "Congratulations, your son has truly made it"
Then it hit me that they watchin' every shot I take

Just like the way we dreamed (oh) way back in Perry Lane, ooh-oh (oh)
Way back in Perry Lane (oh), oh yeah, oh yeah (oh)
Way back in Perry Lane (oh), yeah, way back in Perry Lane (oh, oh)
Oh, oh
