Baby Blue

Lyrics

[Intro] Yeah, yeah Point Breeze, bitch, yeah [Verse] Ever since I activated my first Tracfone on a Blackberry, I've been actin' like an asshole Smile in your face, break in at night, throw your safe off the bridge and watch it crack open That young dumb shit, it's a miracle that I ever got older I did stronger shit than friends that died young, and I carry that shit like a boulder Walkin' through a borage of bad omens in Beltzhoover, feelin' so hopeless I'll never forget my mom prayin' with her hand on my shoulder when I was sick from the opiates They should've found me lyin', not breathin', on the 100 block of Pius But I don't know what Helen would've told Miranda after comin' home and findin' my body like that All the times I've cheated and lied filled the tear water up to my neck until I almost I drowned in my own sorrow without ever findin' a raft All the lies they told me tryna blind me with thoughts about my fucked up past Blamin' shit on everyone else when I was the only one blockin' my path But now I'm the only one out of my city that's writin' these verses like I am Only few remember that delusional kid in that baby blue durag Nike Cortez, Avirex shorts, Shortys hoodie, the kids in my class told me to stop dressin' like I'm black When I was dressin' on what I had to be, like the men I looked up to, because it just wasn't my dad But it's all good, that's not all bad I remember he was at Columbia gettin' his masters back in '95, lookin' at the Twin Towers from the bus in Manhattan My mom couldn't afford a teddy bear, but now it's weekly allowance And a skateboard ramp, how many times I flew off it? Could've been a thousand In the late '90s, brand new khakis and a Hardaway jersey, it was magic Blessed to give thanks for what we had over bread and cheeseburger mac Used to be a family of four, but now we're four different families
