Under the Stars

[Verse: Brother Ali]

How you gon' punch me in the eye?

I would've punched you in the body

My mama used to call the cops on me

Homies used to clown me

And the neighbors used to sic their dogs on me

I guess I get it

I've got this funny vibe and you ain't messin' with it

I'll be on my way in a sec, just let me rest a minute

I ain't homeless, I'm between homes

Ain't lurkin', I'm just searchin' for a surface I can lean on

Somethin' to eat on

Little chew, swallow, chew, swallow, so my stomach isn't too hollow to be gonе

You ain't have to rush the kids away from me

I just want to warn 'еm 'bout what the voices are saying to me

They may want to listen

Act like you ain't never got caught pissin' and had to go to court and war with the system

Anywho, guess they're just giving badges to any fool

Bang a gavel if you take a quick bath in a swimming pool

I know not everyone does it, but plenty do

I saw Jesus once and I don't act like I'm better than you

Take good care

I used to shower at the shelter, but they're crazy there

[Chorus: Brother Ali]

Some are on couches, some are in cars

Some are out here under the stars

No matter what coop you flew

Can't do what you want to

When nobody wants you

Some are on couches, some are in cars

Some are out here under the stars

No matter what coop you flew

Can't do what you want to

When don't nobody want you
