Hopsin - Your House lyrics

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 been going on 'bout
As long as I can remember
He always blamed my mom for
The shit he didn't accomplish
I'd hide in the corner like a
Guinea pig in the process
Just knowing he '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
Would 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 are rough 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
Then hours later you see your mom
And 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 all night
I wanna stay at your house tonight
'Cause, I don't wanna 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 would go to school
Feeling so frightened, yeah, i was scared
Not knowing if I'ma 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'd 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 as if we ever were, that's false
Shit I dealt with growing
Up, will forever hurt, i'm lost
We were nothing like the families I
Used to see on the sitcoms
We were horrible with bonds
I can no longer sit calm
I would see 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 could redo
The pain of the wicked days
When I'd 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 all night
I wanna stay at your house tonight
'Cause, I don't wanna 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
It's mom or 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 there's 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 the
Stress 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
(You did, 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 all night
I wanna stay at your house tonight
'Cause, I don't wanna 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)
