SUBURBAN KIDZ

Sometimes a family lives inside the crack house
Electric off, tellin' CPS it's a blackout
A slave mentality the reason why we lashed out
A ugly nigga, curved by bitches that I asked out

See, at this time, I started out pilin' up my trauma wit' the dirty clothes
Slurry flows, prayin' that my wrists can get McFlurry froze
I'm not that good at sellin' keys, just prayin' that they open doors
The Simpsons, I just wanted Moe, I cried at all my early shows
Seventh grade, we livin' wit' Donte, our life was crumblin'
Tongue kissin' Maggie and Erba put me on punishment
Dysfunctional but functionin', Lil Jon was playin' on the radio
My nigga Jon will never get a chance to get crunk again
Auntie hit me in my face wit' a bottle
And said sorry when the damage was done
In actuality, it was really 'posed to land on her son
Boiled extension cords to beat him on his back so it stung
Family gatherings, Jack Daniels was in attendance
My whole family been strugglin' with addiction
Was quiet as a kid, they see me now and be like: Damn you a musician?
Scared to help 'em out 'cause it might turn to a subscription
One of my cousins said he don't believe in God
'Cause if he was real, he woulda helped him wit' a job
He woulda helped his newborn stay alive
And he woulda never took his daddy and his moms

Rainy days gon' continue when the Sun down
Prayin' that we can figure it out somehow
Could you blame me? I been dealin' wit' a tough crowd
Lately I been lucky if I get one smile
Just one smile, just one smile
Just one smile from the tough crowd, tough crowd

No more smiles from Joey, he OD'd on Snapchat off them Xanny bars
Fam think he in heaven, I don't think that's where he live at all
Pulled up on a joint I'm tryna smack, I used my girl car
She was on FaceTime wit' my bitch, damn, the world small
WorldStar
Death must feel better than life
Trapped in a cycle like I fell off my bike
They chase stars while I chase my dead
They got homes, I got ghosts instead
They got futures while I count regrets
They forget life, I can't forget where I came from
Erba Jean screamin' Ray Vaughn

Yeah, look, PornHub stuck on browser, Del Taco, 8 an hour
Section 8, reusin' voucher, turned into a Debbie Downer
I can smell a rainy day, I done had three baby showers
Baby mama died in childbirth, I'm scared to think about her
Man, who wanna know how he feels? Taxin' me for free will
Life gave a coupon, I used it on my plea deals
School lunch, free meals, poked a hole in milk bag
Let me get a refill, let me know where peace lives
Preachin' to the choir, all my preachers, they was liars
One was married but he still tried sleepin' with my mama
Who lookin' down on me? Fuck they Southern eyes
God, hold on, the devil on the other line
Still a nigga even though you can't call me one
All my cousins claimin' babies while the night was young
Excuse me while I reflect on my nights in the slums
Grateful I never had to lose my life to a gun, pow

Keep on fightin' (keep on fightin')
'Cause life be lifin' (life be lifin')
Life be lifin' (life be)
Life be lifin', yeah (live on)
It hit like tyson (forever)
Life be lifin' (life be lifin')
Life be lifin' (life be lifin')
Keep on fightin', yeah (keep on fightin')

Aye, masked up, robbin' cribs, Batman drinkin' beers
Pawn shops full of sins, noble life, suburban kids
Convo's full of rids, picked it up from Dorothy Diggs
Tell a joke for Donna Siege, bad boy, I'm thinkin' big
Nuts drop, I'm kicked out, livin' at my bitch house
She kick me out too, I got a slick mouth
Always had a problem with makin' shit bigger than it should be
That's 'cause I feel like nobody understood me
Naked truth, my vocals raw, I fuck wit' raw, I'm watchin' RAW
Wrestlin' my demons, dawg, I write it off
I ain't have no jewels, beady beads on me like the Mardi Gras
Tryin' to figure out how much a hollow cost
These niggas don't hit my line no more
Family complainin', sayin': Vaughn ain't got time no more
Stuck in panic mode
I'm tryin' to make it off the one block where guns cock
And everybody's selfie is a mugshot, say cheese

Keep on fightin'
'Cause life be lifin' (life be lifin')
Life be lifin' (life be)
Life be lifin', yeah (live on)
It hit like tyson (forever)
Life be lifin' (life be lifin')
Life be lifin' (life be lifin')
Keep on fightin', yeah
