Jesse Howard, Coherent - Hometown lyrics

Grew up in a frozen scenic but
I have risen with speeches
That'll eat your stomach up and
I'm never talking bulimics
Or other eating diseases just
Preaching before my thesis
That this crown has made me and I
Won't let it crumble to pieces

My attitude is rapacious I guess
That it's just a feature
The kind of feature that makes your
Hands pump in those bleachers
That kind of feature that makes this
Beat bump in your speakers
But they ask why I'm so cold and
Why I feast upon the weaker

Then come up where I be and stand in 40 below
And then you can bitch about why
My heart is so fuckin cold
It has only made me stronger
A story that will unfold
And my crew has got my back to
Make sure that I will uphold

This is where I call my home
Deep up in that Northern atmosphere
Where to persevere is the only
Way to get outta here
It is not forsaken rep my home til I expire
Cause it's what made me
And everything I inspire

You can find Dudley Station
Where time travels
Slow and the nights post up
Waiting Public schooling cracked
Listen damn I'm just saying
Bibles mean nothing
You can't slang on the street in translation
The people push in silence some move too
Loud hence the sound of the sirens
The races blur together in a maze so crazy
The race that matters is for the cheddar
Moms pushed rent to tomorrow when
Her checks were denied
I had my back to the wall
When it came to hard times

I reached for the sky when
I could see the sun
Made major moves to get out the
Fuckin town I was from
Hard to picture depictions of
Outsiders lookin in
Not knowin what it's like from
The slums of Boston
Bullshit history and I just can't purge
Commit it to memory it takes
Me back call it reverse
