Earth




As a kid I didn't have a stable home,
On the streets I would roam
I was roaming around trying to find earth
I was trying to find hurt
I was trying to find somewhere I belonged,
I thought maybe somewhere, someone might really long, ....for me
I was trying to find earth or may I was trying to find hurt.
No shoes, no shirt, I only got pants
My feet look just like the dirt. Know this not where I wanna be, this is not who I wanna be. But everyday it's just trying for me. I'm trying bro
I'm just trying to earth, I didn't mean to get hurt.
