I was five years old when my mama died All of the hospice and the service left me traumatized Had to burn the wound shut, talking Cauterize He couldn't hide it, there was pain in my father's eyes Lost himself and custody, now he got a ride Gave me birds as guardians, they was on the fly Learned to stand up for myself, I never got a lie If I ever called on God, I must have pocket dialed Bounced around the family, then a foster child Hard knock life; the way I acted wasn't dramatized Took the hard way, I ain't follow signs Wrong path paved for me, walk along to find I'm on borrowed time Realized I couldn't call it mine So I had to make the best of what was given till they call it I watched it all align, what you call God, I call design I kept it all in mind It's the music This is behind the music It's the music This is behind the music It's the music This is behind the music It's the music This is behind the music The plot thickened, got locked up, I was not trippin Just some kids without direction, I got lost with em Family hardly come around, like I'm not member I bet when in conversation, I am not mentioned If I was, there was negative connotations Laced with allegations, character assassination Should I mention, I was only a kid Between 12 and 14, doing the shit that I did Still, they put the blame on me Was a victim of abuse, still the shame on me Instead of pray for, they would pray on me Make me the object of all the hate they bring How could I learn to love when I was taught to hate I couldn't learn an action they ain't demonstrate It wasn't till the music and me starting to use it That I learned to say that I felt this way It's the music This is behind the music It's the music This is behind the music It's the music This is behind the music It's the music This is behind the music
