Текст песни GALAXY LANE - Jelani

I saw
Blood splattered on the floor of garage
Pawpaw lied and said the blood was from fixing his car
We ain't know better
A kid's assumption
Why would he lie
Plus fairy tales are better Brother why would we try
To ruin happy homes
A decent picture
Brain filled up with Wayne bars and Easter scriptures
Skipped breakfast every Sunday but the feast delicious
When we finally made it home
To the east
Ambitious kids who ain't understand fear or the strain
Grown folks feel when they're fearing the same
Thing that happened to their parents is about to happen to them
Thought that everything was possible
What happened to Kim
Even Steven grew up still chasing the blues
Who knew that being grown involved facing the rude
Realization that if you not eating you food
Have you thinking about your life as I'm singing this tune
I swear

Life
I ain't got time for another life
Before I make the booth my home
And I make Shai my wife
Make sure the truth is known
And my handlebars are tight
In case I gotta switch directions
Take what's left to make it right
On this lone stroll
Down a long road
You finally get enough bread it turn to hard loaves
I ain't climb up out the pot to stand at y'all stove
Cooking for another see my mother had to haul clothes
From the church and my cousin crib
Who am I to do the same thing my cousins did
Yeah I love them but I know they had a couple dreams
That got crushed along the way just like they self esteem
Shoot I got a shot to rearrange that brittle pain
Place it in these songs the more you hear the more the riddle wanes
You see it clear the more you veer the more the middle hangs
The picture God painting way too major for that little frame
