Back When the City Was People

Say what you mean Speak from your bones Dominos Table to tile City be wild Learned to cope Showed up with grams Slammed that shit down What's up now Money on hand Left about ounce At the house Don't look confused Got drugs to consume And abuse Always asleep No pillow My head in a noose Dreaming about when The city was people I knew I feel the distance When i am home But i'm resistant to life Losing track of time and places Names and faces escape me Believers in groups seekers alone I'm walking the streets i'm checkin' my phone Desire and regret my only opponents The bars are closing my night getting started I'm half in the bag for my dearly departed Country of pain is keeping me guarded The beauty from those wounds Only blooms in the moonlight gardens Coming at you live From solar cycle 25, nigga Where living for truth Is a slow motion suicide nigga Old ambitions, never even made 5 figures And memories run deep In an ocean kissing concrete I feel the distance When i am home But i'm resistant to life
