Sleepyboy Homeless - IN LOVING MEMORY lyrics

1990 was the year they
Conceived a true legend
Had trouble making friends at first
Because people were threatened
Through tough experience I witnessed
My character strengthen
Taking bong rips to come to grips
Fill my lungs with the resin

Remember rocking up to church having
Talks with the reverend
I couldn't blindly follow God I
Had too many questions
They couldn't give me all the answers
Not down with the lessons
Knew something was up so I'd just
Always get chucked in detention

Shout out to Mrs Francis
She never believed in me but gave
Me the motivation to do
Things that were deemed to be
A little out of reach
But it just seemed to me
That doing shit that you
Don't love at all is just
A waste of creativity
How you gunna tell a ten year old
He'll grow up to be nothing?
Was all too often that that shit
Would come up in discussion
Labelled a problem child and shit
Didn't fit in the margin set by old fucks
In suit's who all look like Jeremy Clarkson

No wonder there's so many
Kids getting hooked
On the drugs and I don't
Even know where I would be if
It weren't for my cousins
And all my homies took me in when
I lived in my car it
Goes to show that somtimes it's the
Water that's thicker than blood

And I try to keep it positive coz
I went off my drugs again
The ones I need to numb me
Out I don't like being touched
I guess it's rough when you grow up
With an imbalance in your brain
You're watching everyone move on in
Life while you're going insane

This shit can be hard to explain
To people who never experienced
The constant doubt of one's self worth
Can make you feel delirious it's serious
I know that I can't let it
Get the best of me
Coz if I let it take control than
It will be the death of me

It's plain to see that I'm not done
This music shit's my destiny
It's all I've ever wanted to do
Earliest memory
That tells me that it's meant to be
And since my past is dead
I see the old me's dead as well
So I made this in loving memory
