lyrics

Mama fed the whole block
Straight out the kitchen
If you hungry son
Love is all we got
And you can be what you want
But you gotta go and get it
I can't give it to you son
Pops taught work
Taught what it was worth
His words was ringin' in my head
When I put him in the dirt he said
Don't start no shit
Don't do it
But if they do, son, you finish it quick
My seven sisters raised me
They still call me little boy
Big bro transitioned
Lost my oldest to the void
Rest in power Freddie
Never knew how much I'd miss you
Our last talk wasn't long enough
Still buried you with issues
Reminiscing I still had four brothers
Just buried mama and then we buried your daughter
Wasn't long you was gone soon after
Never got the answer
Was it the powder or the cancer
Getting older now
World is getting colder now
Learning hard lessons
So I'm looking over my shoulder now
Too many gone
Too many ain't talk
And too many times I ain't say what I should
Elders up above me in heaven
I hope they love me
But I've gotta cut my own path
The past is looking ugly
Isolated in the center of Central
In my mind I find infinite potential
Isolated in the center of Central
