about
The rock-based title track and centerpiece of the album details my problems during my childhood: financial issues, parents' divorce, depression. Then the uptempo, rapid fire raps go on to further explain some problems of my present: continued financial strife, worries about police brutality, my brother's death and my other brother's substance abuse, amongst other things. The song gets pretty detailed lyrically and breaks down into an arena-ready trap-rock chorus that will surely leave stages quaking.
lyrics
(Hook) x4
Jumped out the bed,
ran out the house,
hopped in the whip,
gotta keep the car running, car running/sundown coming, sundown coming
(Verse 1)
So I heard they broke the windows on my dad’s van.
Cleaning up, sweeping up,
cut my fingers on the broken glass when I threw it in the trash can.
Cold jersey weather, got dry hands.
Let the dog out,
brother in the house,
I’m tryna measure his medicine amount,
low bank account.
Mad bills on my dad’s desk.
They just blocked cable access.
Bet
internet is next,
heat ain’t coming out of vents.
Thirteen and depressed.
Homeroom teacher saying that I need
therapy
telling me
“Divorce is hard”
No shit, man, I swear to God.
Fast forward, ’09, got a car.
Highways help me take my mind far.
Outta sight and outta mind.
Wish I could leave it all behind.
Brother on and off of hospital mattresses,
other brother using the liquor just to drown his sins.
Fast forward to 2011,
brother Nelson
got called into heaven.
He was a legend.
I know the government gon’ take our crib.
No time to be a kid,
gotta hit the road real quick.
(Chorus) x2
I bet you never thought it’d get like this.
Been up all night,
tryna get it right.
I swear it hurt my soul, you already know.
So tired of the cold, gotta hit the road.
(Hook)
(Verse 2)
So are you ready for the real world, baby?
I swear this shit will drive you crazy.
Crazy.
9 to 5
suicide.
Not enough money to pay rent,
man, fuck a pay check.
What’s next?
I overthink.
Sixty seconds to greatness, I swear I’m on the brink.
Pray the cops don’t pull me over man…
I ain’t got no registration,
no insurance.
And I’m black?
They gon peal my muffin cap back.
Blue
skies
the most stressful.
Night fall when I let go.
Got a bad bitch who wanna meditate.
Hit the road, then we medicate
tryna stay sane.
Dad’s alright, hope he avoid a third heart attack.
Putting major pressure on my cardiac.
Mom back in the picture, that’s cool.
She putting pressure on a nigga too,
talking bout “get a real job”?
Pardon, I was born to slay beats,
make heat,
been a great week.
I’m on the verge of getting out of here,
drive without a care
into the galaxy.
So it’s “peace” to gravity.
(Chorus)
(Hook)
