City Lights

I'm thinkin' ridin' by the city lights About how the world's gettin' colder
A lot of wrongs and I can't make it right Guess I'll never get no closure
To talk the phil, I look to the sky Scared to give my heart, so I just try to hide it
Mama prayin' that her youngest son don't die Just hope it ain't my soul when you hear them sirens

No switchin' sides, only thing I switch is my environment
Got a broken heart, so when it come to love, I'm scared to try again
Left in the dark, sometimes I wanna cry, but I just hold it in
Close to my brothers, scared if I ain't around, then I might lose a friend

Maybe I need to put the blame on myself And maybe I just scared to admit that I need help
But every time I turn around, they never be there
Boy raises kids off a kiosk, wonder how he feel
I hope I can stay up on the road, cup make me can't stear

My dogs stress me, through away joes and start takin' pain pills
And the moment that you step in the game, that's when they all change and go through all this pain to see
I'm thinkin' ridin' by the city lights About how the world's gettin' colder
A lot of wrongs and I can't make it right Guess I'll never get no closure

To talk to phil, I look to the sky Scared to give my heart so I just try to hide it
Mama prayin' that her youngest son don't die Just hopin' ain't my soul when you hear them sirens
I'm thinkin' ridin' by the city lights About how the world's gettin' colder
A lot of wrongs and I can't make it right Guess I'll never get no closure

To talk to phil, I look to the sky Scared to give my heart so I just try to hide it
Mama prayin' that her youngest son don't die Just hopin' ain't my soul when you hear them sirens
Wasn't good at trappin', so I stuck to violence Slept on side of marcus, bed, hopin' grandma would never find me
As much as I was on the news, I thought they'd give me life

I made a promise to my mama, I won't make you cry again
Yeah, so I'm tryna live a different life, and When I go to sleep, that's when I see my friends
Never let them tell you that you can't win I'ma preach the same thing to my kids
I'm thinkin' ridin' by the city lights About how the world's gettin' colder

A lot of roads and I can't make it right Guess I'll never get no closure
To talk the phil, I look to the sky Scared to give my heart so I just try to hide it
Mama prayin' that her youngest son don't die Just hopin' ain't my soul when you hear them sirens
No, no, no, no, no, no Just hopin' ain't my soul when you hear them sirens

Made a promise to my mama, I won't make you cry again
Just hopin' ain't my soul when you hear them sirens Prayed it ain't my soul when you hear them sirens
No, no, no, no, no, no, no Yeah, yeah, yeah
No, no, no, no
