Man, I don´t even know what happened
I was born inside of this shit
My fucking parents scrappin´, I was mortified as a kid
Police always at my house all because of my daddy´s temper

Man, this shit been going on ´bout as long as I can remember
He always blamed my mom for the shit he didn´t accomplish
I´d hide in the corner like a guinea pig in the process
Just knowing he ´bout to smack the fucking teeth out her mouth
It´s like when it came to some type of drama
He got aroused, no joke
There was the moments where dad would slowly be creeping up
I would jump in front of my mama: "Please don´t beat her up"
I ain´t never spoke on this shit, the memories are rough
Smiles and hugs, that´s just something you´ll never see in us

You know the pain when your parents tell you to go and play
Then hours later you see your mom and she got a swollen face
I hope you don´t relate, I just learned how to cope today
From the days when I would pick up the phone and say

I gotta leave here now
My mom and dad acting crazy and this ain´t right
And they´ve been going back and forth all night
I wanna stay at your house tonight
´Cause I don´t wanna hear my dad fightin´ momma no more
I don´t wanna hear the police at the front door
Can I stay at your house?
I wanna stay at your house tonight (Your house tonight)

I would go to school feeling so frightened, yeah, I was scared
Not knowing if I´ma go home finding my momma dead
Every other fucking day, dad was always losing control
He was acting like a fucking ape, runnin´ loose in our home
Man ever since I was born they was pessimistic and torn
It´s evident, but regardless they´d never get a divorce
God, I wish they got around it, just checking into some counselin´
We could have been a happy family inside our house again
I said again is if we ever were, that´s false
Shit I dealt with growing up, will forever hurt, I´m lost

We were nothing like the families I used to see on the sitcoms
We were horrible with bonds, I can no longer sit calm
I would see that my friends had a life at home that was peaceful
They were lovable people, who didn´t function like we do
Oh how I wish I could redo the pain of the wicked days
When I´d pick up the telephone, call a friend and say

I gotta leave here now
My mom and dad acting crazy and this ain´t right
And they´ve been going back and forth all night
I wanna stay at your house tonight
´Cause I don´t wanna hear my dad fightin´ momma no more

I don´t wanna hear the police at the front door
Can I stay at your house?
I wanna stay at your house tonight (Your house tonight)

I ain´t placing the blame saying it´s mom or dad´s fault
But all those traumas I had stuck with me as an adult
And it ignited these mad thoughts that I seem to have often
Yeah, that´s Hopsin, music is where my last straw went
Now I´m devoted to always give you my true life
The love I never felt growing up I get it from you guys
Please don´t get it twisted, I love both my parents to death

I just think there´s issues a lot of fucking parents neglect
We all got these traumas we carry and sometimes it´s scary
´Cause we buried a nest, right there in our chest
And we subconsciously air and project our nightmares and the stress that we dealt with when we were younger
And that´s why therapy´s best, listen
If you got kids of your own and you throwing tantrums
Don´t be oblivious and assume that it won´t impact them
Children follow the protocol of their parents blueprint
So when there´s an issue, they might handle it just how you did (You did, you did)

I gotta leave here now
My mom and dad acting crazy and this ain´t right
And they´ve been going back and forth all night
I wanna stay at your house tonight
´Cause I don´t wanna hear my dad fightin´ momma no more
I don´t wanna hear the police at the front door
Can I stay at your house?
I wanna stay at your house tonight (Your house tonight)
