Hometown Hurricane

(الألبوم: High Expectations - 2023)

(I'm in a hometown hurricane
I'm in a hometown hurricane)

In the same old hood
In hand-me down clothes
Just the same old jit
Spinning out control
Just a kid from commerce city
Trying to get it right
Scared to end up like my sister
Turning to the pipe

How does anyone get sober
With deals going down on every corner
In a town you have to look over your shoulder
Momma just wants to see her kids grow older

I'm in a hometown hurricane
Everything around me would fall like rain
Had to learn things the hard way
Like finding silver linings in all the pain
Had the curtains pulled
Staring out the window
Had to let it pour
Had to let that wind blow
I'm in a hometown hurricane
But every storm runs out of rain

(I'm in a hometown hurricane
I'm in a hometown hurricane)

White picket fence dreams
Finally in my control
Got the same outlook
With some brand-new clothes
Still that kid from commerce city
With a brand-new life
Sister done with the struggle
Since she found the light
That's why I gotta stay sober
Happiness is just around the corner
Never gave in to the devil on my shoulder
Momma still gets to see her boys grow older

I'm in a hometown hurricane
Everything around me would fall like rain
Had to learn things the hard way
Like finding silver linings in all the pain
Had the curtains pulled
Staring out the window
Had to let it pour
Had to let that wind blow
I'm in a hometown hurricane
But every storm runs out of rain

(I'm in a hometown hurricane
I'm in a hometown hurricane)
