[Intro 1]
[D]
[B]
[D]

[Verse 1]
Close the [D]door, lock it,
I couldn't face the mirror
Feeling inferior, trapped in dark interior
Clothes folded neat,
but complete was not the person
So he grows in the [B]dark,
cause his real life's the [D]worst one
Born on the 3rd of
July, when the scars in his
eyes twinkle dim
when his pots fade as grim.
Raised with a brother, sister,
mama found the answer.
God [B]grabbed my pops by the [D]arm,
a leg of cancer.
Now these events took the boy
back by leaps and
bounds.
Now this one sound,
tell your old boys life is shifting.
[B]When the drifter disowned
plywood.
Tried to take his father's
place in fatherhood.
Put his foot on [D]pop's throne.
His
mommy wants the bone.
Her daughter may be next if he
can get past her brother.
Now shit is getting
Without sign of potential
Cause decisions have been
made and over
[B]Mami's influential
[D]That [Bm]daisy nigga [D]rides the smoke
Rides into the end of fables
So enjoys her pots and pans
And scraps on kitchen tables
Saying to herself
Stop the [B]fighting fellas
[D]Please for her own security
Mami's dissing me for
[B]B -E -A -C -E
[D]With words that cut the eldest son
Deep down her sides
To make him realize
Relatives is relative
[Bm]If they ai[D]n't got their own
His [B]presence takes up space
I wanna bash him in his face
You know [D]who you are
You never cared about my mother,
put my pride into your car
Telling me I'll never make
it but I didn't throw a fit
I just told you to your face that
I thank you for the shit
Now I [B]walk with heavy loads and
bothered up I [D]hide inside it
Emotions, lose emotions,
started screaming from [B]the closet
[D]Now I remember
Potts was 5 '4
He used to change smoke,
read a book at night and tortoise hell decide to draw
He delivers his right in the [B]living room and
the boogie down brought some
[Bm]Love
[Em]Gladys
[A]Knight's [D]tunes
But it's not no skid and report
card grids don't mix
Especially when you're a bully bashing
heads with stones and stick[B]s
So [D]when he got [B]mad,
my [D]black turned white from the fright of the fear
Of the bell on his waist hit
the rump of my rear
And the rear of his leg was the zaner
aging orange over years
Results of a pep limp
depended on a [B]crutch
[D]Leaving legs sedated that eventually
was amputated
Diagnosed as cancer, leading to therapy
My life story's purgatorious, sickness had
a citrus -ness
My family a unit that had bad health,
no wealth
[B]or a clue
[D]So all you do is watch him
decay before your
eyes
And hope the big guy in
disguise hears your
pleas
But he's too busy [B]with the world to hear
a desperate son on his [D]knees
Especially that
Sunday when his eyes open wide
When he turned to his meeker,
kissed his family goodbye
But the next day was full,
thinking pops was getting better
As my hearse in my womb,
with the news of no surprise
[B]That she held me in her arms and
told me [D]that your father died
And he knew it all along and bothered
up he hid inside it
Emotions with emotions,
started screaming [Bm]from the [D]closet[B][D]
[B][D]
Whether it's pride or own, now daddy's gone,
that's on the real
Mommy's a man's place,
got three kids and payin' bills
Without support,
perished the thought the fort was stable
Tip -top chick, was homesick, [B]home
Worked her fingers [Bm]through the
[D]bone by her lonesome
She was able to ditch the cause of life
Adele who mostly felt the burden
of her stomach's churning
In the early morning,
yawnin' but the new day was dawnin'
Cause every dog got the day so
she held the head up high
Stood with children,
had no limits but the sky, boy
Speak, wing and spoke,
she was strict like no joke
Swingin' on my upbringing
[B]cause she pushed
A kick in the [D]tush, daily
[B]That's what most [D]of us need
And it worked like a charm
Giving props to my moms
But I got no more tears with
these feelings
Bottled up for years
So now I fold my cards on the table
In light of the land
And place my hand [B]on the knob
To turn but not to look back
In[D]side it, emotions lose their motion
As I step out of the closet
[B]
[D][D][D]
Thanks
