A Prophet Without Honour
Uh, isn't easy but I'll open up
Didn't believe in love but what we got is close enough
Feels as if I was asleep and now I've woken up
Saved me from myself, my heart in pieces, broken up
Was just a uni student, back then was the coldest days
I used to walk down cross the street, man I was so afraid
Was just a black man in a hostile town they always hate
They throwing stones and then they throwing sticks and throwing shade
Cause like a prophet in his hometown never gets no honor
And all these whores it's getting complex cause they not Madonnas
They never loved you and the truth is they ain't never gonna
I'd rather go back to my hometown where I left my mother
Cause like a prophet in his hometown never gets no honor
And all these whores it's getting complex cause they not Madonnas
They never loved you and the truth is they ain't never gonna
I'd rather go back to my hometown where I left my mother
I just want a loving mother who can raise my fam
They tell me that's misogynistic well I guess I am
My body clock was over ticking so damn stressed I am
And if I say the game is binary I'm just a man
And they gon' come and crucify me cause I found my lady
And then define what mental illness is it's kinda shaded
But I've been crazy ever since I met the real Slim Shady
And if our craziness equates to greatness well then pay me
Cause off this mental state I'm bout to make a living man
Protect my family even if it means to kill a man
I talk to God inside of heavens gates and ceilings fam
I'm just a mix between the thriller man and jigger man
Didn't believe in love but what we got is close enough
Feels as if I was asleep and now I've woken up
Saved me from myself, my heart in pieces, broken up
Was just a uni student, back then was the coldest days
I used to walk down cross the street, man I was so afraid
Was just a black man in a hostile town they always hate
They throwing stones and then they throwing sticks and throwing shade
Cause like a prophet in his hometown never gets no honor
And all these whores it's getting complex cause they not Madonnas
They never loved you and the truth is they ain't never gonna
I'd rather go back to my hometown where I left my mother
Cause like a prophet in his hometown never gets no honor
And all these whores it's getting complex cause they not Madonnas
They never loved you and the truth is they ain't never gonna
I'd rather go back to my hometown where I left my mother
I just want a loving mother who can raise my fam
They tell me that's misogynistic well I guess I am
My body clock was over ticking so damn stressed I am
And if I say the game is binary I'm just a man
And they gon' come and crucify me cause I found my lady
And then define what mental illness is it's kinda shaded
But I've been crazy ever since I met the real Slim Shady
And if our craziness equates to greatness well then pay me
Cause off this mental state I'm bout to make a living man
Protect my family even if it means to kill a man
I talk to God inside of heavens gates and ceilings fam
I'm just a mix between the thriller man and jigger man
