I was
Red Roof living
Water fountain sipping
Tryna make a living
While I'm caught in this position
I'm slipping (I'm slipping, Red Roof living)
I'm sipping (I'm slipping, tryna make a living)
I was
Motel 6'ing
Pops and I were broke while fiends were looking for a fixing
Steady on a mission, like the hoes around me trickin'
Tryna make some chicken
I gotta make it out my only guidance intuition
Take a listen, my passion starting slipping
My relationship with friends became distant
I don't have a pot to piss in
I was hopeful, I was wishing
That I could find a job so I could have a bed to sleep in
Keep the faith instead of
Red Roof living
Water fountain sipping
Tryna make a living
While I'm caught in this position
I'm slipping (I'm slipping, Red Roof living)
I'm sipping (I'm slipping, tryna make a living)
I was
Caught up in this lifestyle
Gotta make it worth while
People try to converse, but its time to crack a fake smile
Grab the key and then I'm gone
Wash my clothes and move along
The world keep turning, but my heart beats to a different song
Every night I'm in the lobby, hoping that they never find me
Rather keep the memories than leave the journey left behind he
Wants the world to hear his song, and pray to God they sing along
A story never written, but to you a story passed along
I was
Red Roof living
Water fountain sipping
Tryna make a living
While I'm caught in this position
I'm slipping (I'm slipping, Red Roof living)
I'm sipping (I'm slipping, tryna make a living)
