Right Next to You (for the neighbors)

I think I had a home

But I was told that we were stole

Now I got no land of my own

And so I live right

I live right next to you

You want to know

Which parts of my world I haven't shown

I would invite you to my home

But it wouldn't fit right

I live right next to you

Yo, I'm not a straight A student

I'm not a big grey space mutant

My world ain't the dark side of Mercury

The current scene is in Miami bass music

I'm not from a doomed megalopolis

I don't sleep in a tomb or sarcophagus

My mother ain't a moon child

My daddy didn't travel via rocket ship

I didn't jump through a stargate

I'm not gonna front like I'm Scarface

I don't glorify stupid shit

My moms got arrested in a car chase

I grew up in the crack years

And I hope they never come back here

In my class kids overdosed

While I was in the back reading Blackbeard

Yeah I lived in the projects

All types of bullshit surrounded me

But that's not a parallel universe

Them shits is just down the street

This isn't war correspondents

The conflict isn't far away

We all know where the battle is

We all know that it's hard to say

You can't see my skin and bones

Cause I don't speak ignorant tones

And I'm never gonna keep up with the Joneses

Even though I live right

I live right next to you

Peek in my zone and peep my culture 'til it's gone

But I'm gonna get back what I'm owed

So you just sit tight

I live right next to you

I had a home

But I was told that we were stole

Now I got no land of my own

And so I live right

I live right next to you

You want to know

Which parts of my world I haven't shown

I would invite you to my home

Even though it's midnight
