Your House

Man, I don't even know what happened

I was born inside of this shit

My fucking parents scrappin', I was mortified as a kid

Police always at my house all because of my daddy's temper

Man, this shit going on about as long as I can remember

He always blamed my mom for this shit he didn't accomplish

I'd hide in the corner like a guinea pig in the process

Just knowing he's 'bout to smack the fucking teeth out her mouth

It's like when it came to some type of drama

He got aroused, no joke

There was the moments where dad was slowly be creeping up

I would jump in front of my mama: Please, don't beat her up

I ain't never spoke on this shit, the memories erupt

Smiles and hugs, that's just something you'll never see in us

You know the pain when your parents tell you to go and play

And hours later you see your momma, she got a swollen face

I hope you don't relate, I just learned how to cope today

From the days when I would pick up the phone and say

I gotta leave here now

My mom and dad acting crazy and this ain't right

And they've been going back and forth for all night

I wanna stay at your house tonight

'Cause I don't wanna to hear my dad fightin’ momma no more

I don't wanna hear the police at the front door

Can I stay at your house?

I want to stay at your house tonight (your house tonight)

I would go to school feeling so frightened, yeah, I was scared

Not knowing if I'm gonna go home finding my momma dead

Every other fucking day, dad was always losing control

He was acting like a fucking ape, runnin' loose in our home

Man ever since I was born they was pessimistic and torn

It's evident, but regardless they never get a divorce

God, I wish they got around it, just checking into some counselin'

We could have been a happy family inside our house again

I said again is if we ever were, that's false

Shit I dealt with growing up with will forever hurt, I'm lost

We weren’t nothing like the families I used to see on the sitcoms

We were horrible with bonds, I can no longer sit calm

All I see is that my friends had a life at home that was peaceful

They were lovable people, who didn't function like we do

Oh, how I wish I can redo the pain and the wicked days

When I pick up the telephone, call a friend and say

I gotta leave here now

My mom and dad acting crazy and this ain't right

And they've been going back and forth for all night

I wanna stay at your house tonight

'Cause I don't wanna to hear my dad fightin’ momma no more

I don't wanna hear the police at the front door

Can I stay at your house?

I wanna stay at your house tonight (your house tonight)

I ain't placing the blame saying this is mom and dad's fault

But all those traumas I had stuck with me as an adult

And it ignited these mad thoughts that I seem to have often

Yeah, that's Hopsin, music is where my last straw went

Now I'm devoted to always give you my true life

The love I never felt growing up I get it from you guys

Please don't get it twisted, I love both my parents to death

I just think these issues a lot of fucking parents neglect

We all got these traumas we carry and sometimes it's scary

'Cause we buried a nest, right there in our chest

And we subconsciously air and project our nightmares and distress

That we dealt with when we were younger

And that's why therapy’s best, listen

If you got kids of your own and you throwing Tantrums

Don't be oblivious and assume that it won't impact them

Children follow the protocol of their parents’ blueprint

So when there's an issue, they might handle it just how you did

I gotta leave here now

My mom and dad acting crazy and this ain't right

And they've been going back and forth for all night

I wanna stay at your house tonight

'Cause I don't wanna to hear my dad fightin’ momma no more

I don't wanna hear the police at the front door

Can I stay at your house?

I want to stay at your house tonight (your house tonight)
