lyrics
I don't want to die but I'm living in scum... [repeated]
Human forms hunched over cold from haunting your block,
rotting thoughts brought on from the toxin's they bought,
their judgement is clouded cause that's we're they stay,
til' floating is hopeless and reality breaks,
Their lost steppin' slow cause their psyche it rots,
Til their thoughts start joggin' to the price of a rock,
Lust for this drug, love'll have 'em insane,
So they slingin' a ring to get their lover to stay,
you have what they want, so they'll haunt you at night,
see angels in crack smoke, it follow's the light,
billows of smoke slowly pillow their hopes,
til' they drift into bliss from the wisdom they smoke,
til' floating is hopeless and reality breaks,
and their judgement is clouded cause that's where they stay,
so they fall from the sky cause their dreaming is done,
and reality hits them, now they're fiending for scum
CHORUS
Tryna' break free while we chained to our worth,
tryna' stay clean while we bathing in dirt,
Living with nothing but we're living for funds,
Told us to clean up but we're living in scum,.
Tryna' break free while we chained to our worth,
tryna' stay clean while we bathing in dirt,
Living with nothing but we're living for funds,
Told us to clean up but we're living in scum
VERSE 2:
No father figures, figured that I'm destined for scum,
Said to suck it up but never fucking went through the slums,
Single parent structure stuck seeing I'm weak,
hunger pains'll drain you til' fiending to eat,
outsiders judge, stuck with silly assumptions,
keep feeding you lies but still fill you with nothing,
I'm fucking filthy, dirty, rotten, broken and bruised,
thoughts haunt me, taunting slowly hopin' I'll lose,
I'll never be shit, sick, scorned by the sun,
cause the light never reached those born into scum,
Sick'a all this stress, went driftin' through the dirt,
But through dirt, there's stress, so I'm living to work,
Bust my ass, trapped tryin' hope for the best,
But instead I open bottle's tryna cope with stress,
Born into scum, I'm stuck facing traditions,
Cause we either stay struggling or slaves to addiction
CHORUS
Tryna' break free while we chained to our worth,
tryna' stay clean while we bathing in dirt,
Living with nothing but we're living for funds,
Told us to clean up but we're living in scum,.
Tryna' break free while we chained to our worth,
tryna' stay clean while we bathing in dirt,
Living with nothing but we're living for funds,
Told us to clean up but we're living in scum
These beasts eat speech out the mouths of the saints,
spit out tainted phrases til their cowardice fades,
sell flesh, death, drugs and the power that's with it,
that's dinner for three cause there's power in digits,
toxicity feasts as these beasts on the block,
growlin' at the pigs tryna eat out their trough,
hot headed dreaded thought's hurting their minds,
til these beasts eat your moment's and they're serving their time
I'm stuck in the middle brittle broken and bruised,
monsters riddle my mind tryna choke on my youth,
Growing ups crushed by the burden of stress,
And my breaths only steps to that burden of death,
So growing is crude cause goons haunt me at night,
They spring from the dirt cause they stalking the light,
Guess light only shines on bundles of cash,
While we stuck in this scum tryna run from the past
