Train Tracks
Living low class, we're just white trash
We got broke glass, and they got green grass
Across them train tracks
Across them train tracks
We try so hard and we do so bad
We could go so far, but we can't look past
The god damn train tracks
I hate those train tracks
I remember rocking tall tees and baggy jeans
Remember staying up late and just bagging weed
And at a younger age, I was unafraid
Remember mom and me kickin' it on the summer day
Sometime the world so cold, I wanna run away
I know this world gets cooler than the Hunger Games
Crashed on couches and slept on floors
And I always had a crush on the girl next door
But to tell y'all the truth, I never tried to holla though
Hid my lack of self confidence behind a lot of jokes
Thought I'd never make it out my situation
I was bound by so many stipulations
Living low class, we're just white trash
We got broke glass, and they got green grass
Across them train tracks
Across them train tracks
We try so hard and we do so bad
We could go so far, but we can't look past
The god damn train tracks
I hate those train tracks
Life got hard, but we just came harder
Spent some time in the gutter by the rain water
A lost soul, I was born to ramble
Woke up one day, my life was in shambles
Ain't afraid to gamble, put it all on the line
This neighborhood ain't' shit, but I'm calling it mine
Rent man callin' trippin' on the rent
Got a baby on the way with a chick that I ain't with
And my mama needs some pain pills, she says she's feeling pain
I gotta hustle y'all, I don't know no other way
On these train tracks, staring at the other side
I'll make it over then one day, that's on my mother's life
Living low class, we're just white trash
We got broke glass, and they got green grass
Across them train tracks
Across them train tracks
We try so hard and we do so bad
We could go so far, but we can't look past
The god damn train tracks
I hate those train tracks
Between a rock and a hard place, I'm bummed with a court case
The bills at the house, way past due
Ankle bracelet with a curfew, water cut off
Daughter need to use the bathroom, what can I do?
God damn, the lawyer want 10 racks
Whistle blowin', and I'm standing on the train tracks
How long the line? Just a matter of time
Before the chickens come home and the eggs hatch
Got them all in one basket underneath the bed
With a banger and a ski mask, 'cause I'm ready
Grass look greener, over there
So I pull in his yard, I park the chevy, I'm here now
So hard, so bad
So far, look past
The train tracks
I hate those train tracks
So hard, so bad
So far, look past
The train tracks
Oh (train tracks)
Living low class, we're just white trash
We got broke glass, and they got green grass
Across them train tracks
Across them train tracks
We try so hard and we do so bad
We could go so far, but we can't look past
The god damn train tracks
I hate those train tracks
