*Coughs*
Yeah
Gotta feel me on this one
It's Earv
[Verse 1: E$C]
I don't remember the exact date but ma and dad I remember
When the first time the family tie became unknotted damn I remember
I remember the way she ran into my room asking why mommy and daddy fighting all the time
Sister had tears from her eyes hid her under the bed saying everything gon' be fine
But I lied to her face cause I a'int really know if everything was really gon' be straight
Being the big brother that I can to her felt like superman all I needed was a cape
Momma yells was so loud it was like distorted bass, hitting all my walls
I was so small felt I couldn't help at all, never ever perfect opposite of par
I imagined everything in my head god, it sounded so abusive
It was like a horror movie hearing the whole ass whopping and me, feeling all the bruises
Looked at my sister and i handed her some headphones and said here listen to some music
Meanwhile I'm right next to her hearing all the fussing, feeling like damn I'm bout to lose it
But i thought no, man not in front of my sister
She had no hope, I teared up a little
Grabbed her forehead and then I kissed her
Then I thought "why now this bout to scar my sister!?"
It was gonna ruin her little dreamville in her head, with all the painted pretty pictures
Ever since then i did nothing but to lift her
Every time they fought it was never ever whispers
Bruh my sister came into my room a few months ago
Like even tho I'm nine i got thoughts too
And i don't really know whether I should speak up or no
My mind blew
I said you gotta speak your mind cause I promise you one day girl they gonna pay attention
Like me I try to speak to millions but, I know only few listen
