Lost Boy (Father's Skin)
I was a lost boy
Cutting through the trees
Tryna find my way home
I had no choice
Cause when everybody leaves
I'm left with the void
Looking for safety
Being myself
But they try to change me
I don't wanna be a lost boy
I don't wanna be lost
Just like my grandfather
I've been so tired
Drowning in water
But still in the fire
I've had some demons
Sometimes I still see 'em
Tryna use all this darkness
To take all my freedom
I'm in my fathers skin
Fighting off his father's sin
That's why I'm up all night
Tryna find the medicine
I'm in my father's skin
Fighting off his father's sin
That's why I'm up all night
All night
Yea
One foot in religion, tryna keep my image up
When I'm alone, I still feel like a prisoner
Tryna get them shackles off my feet
But I still love it when she dance on me
Truth be told, I'm like a man in quicksand
With my hands up to the sky for God's plan
If I have to let you leave, don't tear me down
Cause now that I got kids, I want them to be proud
I'm in my fathers skin
Fighting off his father's sin
That's why I'm up all night
Tryna find the medicine
I'm in my father's skin
Fighting off his father's sin
That's why I'm up all night
All night
Satan, the Lord God rebuke you
I ain't going back
I ain't going back, back, back
Satan, the Lord God rebuke you
I ain't going back
I ain't going back
I'm in my fathers skin
Fighting off his father's sin
That's why I'm up all night
Tryna find the medicine
I'm in my father's skin
Fighting off his father's sin
That's why I'm up all night
All night
Hey
Cutting through the trees
Tryna find my way home
I had no choice
Cause when everybody leaves
I'm left with the void
Looking for safety
Being myself
But they try to change me
I don't wanna be a lost boy
I don't wanna be lost
Just like my grandfather
I've been so tired
Drowning in water
But still in the fire
I've had some demons
Sometimes I still see 'em
Tryna use all this darkness
To take all my freedom
I'm in my fathers skin
Fighting off his father's sin
That's why I'm up all night
Tryna find the medicine
I'm in my father's skin
Fighting off his father's sin
That's why I'm up all night
All night
Yea
One foot in religion, tryna keep my image up
When I'm alone, I still feel like a prisoner
Tryna get them shackles off my feet
But I still love it when she dance on me
Truth be told, I'm like a man in quicksand
With my hands up to the sky for God's plan
If I have to let you leave, don't tear me down
Cause now that I got kids, I want them to be proud
I'm in my fathers skin
Fighting off his father's sin
That's why I'm up all night
Tryna find the medicine
I'm in my father's skin
Fighting off his father's sin
That's why I'm up all night
All night
Satan, the Lord God rebuke you
I ain't going back
I ain't going back, back, back
Satan, the Lord God rebuke you
I ain't going back
I ain't going back
I'm in my fathers skin
Fighting off his father's sin
That's why I'm up all night
Tryna find the medicine
I'm in my father's skin
Fighting off his father's sin
That's why I'm up all night
All night
Hey
