[Hook: Maverick Sabre (x2)] I've been living this daily With no peace, no day dreams to save me Get high cause I want to survive Wish I could draw back the hands of time. [Verse 1] Born me 1985 10 months later my little bro arrived Raised in a place where it's do to survive My mommy shopped food to put honey in our hive I can see the hunger in her eyes I can see that something wasn't right She taught me how to rapish up my first ticket She told me watch my back and be smart with it And I wish that I could take you there To a place that my brain takes me everyday I can smile but it still won't take the pain away I could try but remain in this lonely place From a child I've been raised in a soldier way Mommy didn't ramp she called us the krays No jokes she showed us the ways [Hook: Maverick Sabre (x2)] I've been living this daily With no peace, no day dreams to save me Get high cause I want to survive Wish I could draw back the hands of time. [Verse 2] Mommy couldn't cope so she turned to drugs But Auntie Tina gave us hope, she was there for us I was raised on the roads where it's rare to trust And my heart's been broke, now I'm scared to love And I might seem closed until I open up Feel the weight of the struggle I've been holding up Been betrayed by a cuddle and a heartless hug I drink pain from a bottle till my heart feels numb Cause I came from the bottom of this bottle of rum Ain't changed from a youngun', I've been stuck in the slums Grey days up in London, ain't no summer for us They're trying to take aid, they want my brother in cuffs And I just came home this ain't nothing to ask Like the court don't know how a sufferer does This is poor home grown but mom's love was enough So I want to give her more than she's giving to us. [Hook: Maverick Sabre (x2)] I've been living this daily With no peace, no day dreams to save me Get high cause I want to survive Wish I could draw back the hands of time. [Bridge: Maverick Sabre] I don't want to feel this I don't want to see this I don't want to hurt no more I don't want to be this I don't want to feed this I don't need to fight this war Cause I'm trying to be somebody There's nothing I fear that can cloud it I'm trying to be somebody Need to get on up Need to get on up now [Hook: Maverick Sabre (x2)] I've been living this daily With no peace, no day dreams to save me Get high cause I want to survive Wish I could draw back the hands of time. |
