This road is where I used to live, a vibrant city landscape
A challenge just to walk a mile when I was diaper trained
A man made wonder till I grew a little older
took a look at the potholes, got a bit closer
started noticing the cracks in the ground we resent
filled to the brim, desperation, that’s how we lament
so our goals in this life, are to play wet cement
mold and adapt to the tragice situations of the present
I’d like to believe, I’ve come a long way
since the gold rushed towards the exit of this cave
craved massive attention when I was still a bit infant
submit the final documents, but I’m missing finger prints
call me the unknown planeswalker
though tour would make me stronger but instead I grew fonder
for the days when josh didn’t have a single care
if you’re out there listening, please know I’m right here
(Chorus):
This old town has a strong grip on me
from the tides of taunton river near main st
I come from a place, most like to forget
I’m not turning my back, recognize and represent
This old town has a strong grip on me
from the tides of taunton river near main st
We come from a place, most like to forget
I’m not going that route, recognize and represent
I’ve got a stomach filled with false hopes I’m trying so hard
to use this knife by my belt just to silence my scars
damage the guards, cause they’re lacking every bit of malice
turn the lights on Alice, this wonderland is just tragic
so fracture the hopes that you built upon an honest living
I’m wining goals and yet thinking of quitting
not enough has changed my situation to believe in this
the roads are all empty, hopeless, filled with guilt that
we’re going far and still getting nowhere
seems the race towards the stairs was the door towards the welfare
pay the price, that’s been the motto to my life
friends think they understand sacrifice and strife, it's like
taking your check, your health and your world
now throw it out the window towards the gutter near you
that still rings true, towards my futures final stake
I’m pulling my weight, I’m leaving nothing to fate
it's like
Its been 4 years since I left my hometown
gunning for the top half echelon, I finally get the math
when I make it to the place that I'm comfortable inside my skin
akin to the issues blowing in the wind
where the city blocks gunshots heard on my street
friends say its getting worse they all want to leave
I remember roaming round with my baseball team
hitting shots in the grass fields of parks named Kennedy
remember me cause I can't seem to forget you.
the comic shop hobby stop parked near the front and watched homeless drug addicts
maybe street walkers come into the place where we held down offers for our social situations
I mean it when I say it I love this little city to Im buried in the pavement
relate to this if you’re from a place no one cares about
fall river stand up and be proud.
