That Place

(الألبوم: Mona Lisa - 2018)

Here we go again, huh?
I'll meet you over there
I can't stand that place man
Never know what's gonna happen in there man
Good news, bad news, shit

Pacing back and forth in that hospital hall
No phone signal, I could get a call
Ain't speak to doctors at all
My homie voice in my head
Like you got a game today? I'm watching you ball
I'll be there soon, lemme stop at the store
Had one of them off games where I couldn't get a shot to just fall
The coach benched me it's 40 sutting to like, forgot what's the score
I open my flip to a barrage of missed calls
Some from anonymous but a lot that I know
I hit my partner back yo
He like it's "Rah, my nigga, they shot him up Joe"
I'm like "What?" He like "I'm parked outside the park man let's go"
I left my gym bag and hopped in, not him we just chopped it up
He said he was on his way to watch me shoot and now they shot him up
I'm in the ER like where my boy, man, they shot him up
A bloody gurney races by, he looks at me, they shot him up
To ICU, I lost my homie on that 3rd floor
Can't believe that I'm the last person he saw

I swear to God I hate the hospital
I can't even stand the smell of that place
It's the scent of sickness and death, tears dwell on your face
They whisper news but it hit you like they yelled in your face, man
I swear to God I hate the hospital
I mean no disrespect to what the nurses or the doctors do
Sometimes y'all make a miracle appear from the impossible
But when my people there getting outta there's an obstacle

Pacing back and forth in that hospital hall
No phone signal, I could not get a call
Ain't hear from doctors at all
My momma voice in my head like this ain't a game
Don't let them condoms come off
But I want to feel it so I'ma go raw
Just one time, but one time mean every time
And one time that fun ain't quite pull out in time and now it's son time
I walk into the room, throw on some scrubs, my baby mom's pushing
Screaming for that depo shot, squeezing on my arm looking
Down at her private crying in hopes to hear crying
I am in shock as the top of his head came poking out
Why is it split in half
That's when I notice he was feet first, breech birth
Umbilical round his neck and made him breathe worse
They tryna reposition him before she deliver, I'm praying please work
My 1st born cannot meet Earth before he meet Earth
The cord unravels, the battle's won, tears pour
I can't believe that I'm the first person he saw

I swear to God I hate the hospital
I can't even stand the smell of that place
It's the scent of sickness and death, tears dwell on your face
They whisper news but it hit you like they yelled in your face, man
I swear to God I hate the hospital
I mean no disrespect to what the nurses or the doctors do
Sometimes y'all make a miracle appear from the impossible
But when my people there getting outta there's an obstacle

RIP all the fallen soldiers
You gone but you still here though
Welcome to all the new life, yeah
