Austin Bombaye - Government Rd. (Remastered) Lyrics

It's been a long ride it's been a long time tryna move mountains in the alpine
Making music in my down time while my dad watch the news
Better that then the booze waking up in the morn
Rather that then the snooze and my family been torn
Rather that than the noose rather that then the generational addiction
That's inflicted me and cursed the only remedy is words
Soft music in this verse put it on repeat till I puke in the dirt
Music is medicine and the beat give me energy
Been investing in my tendencies that'll explode my humility
This hate on the internet is like a huge thorn in my dignity
With nothing going viral I'm all alone with my symphony
Beats sounding like I flown to the Middle East yo

Chitta Chang and the block gon sang ringa lang no one call me by name
Dusty floors new broom sweep clean smoke clouds cuz we puff that green
Saying all we got is the block we scream Santa never came to our house on the street
All on Government Road where the blood gon leak where the blood gon leak

Where I reached my peak where I took a leap and it wasn't very cheap looking pretty damn steep
Did it all for a piece did it all for the peace did it all at a price pack up and I leave
Pack up and I left I'll be here till I'm dead or until I get a check big enough for a crib
Or until I get lit so high I forget all about where about I live
All about Government Road on down by the bridge

And the block gon sang ringa lang no one call me by name
Dusty floors new broom sweep clean smoke clouds cuz we puff that green
Saying all we got is the block we scream Santa never came to our house on the street
All on Government Road where the blood gon leak where the blood gon leak
