[Intro]
Ay, ay, ay
Ay, ay, ay
[Chorus]
I'm holding on your rope, got me ten feet off the ground
And I’m hearing what you say, but I just can't make a sound
You tell me that you need me, then you go and cut me down
But wait
You tell me that you're sorry, didn’t think I'd turn around
And say
[Verse 1]
Walkin' through the hallways, feelin' like a ghost
He tried to talk to her but the words won't come up out his throat
Momma got fired so he wear the same clothes
Eviction notice on the door, apartment getting foreclosed
Paps died, overdosed, momma raising kids alone
But then locked up for selling drugs, case moving slow
Straight A student, odds stacked against him
Looking in the mirror, he'd just see his dad's reflection
Every day, lonely, his homies ain't his homies
Graduation day, no family at the ceremony
Moved out, him and his momma started growing apart
Her destination, just a couple bags of clothes and a car, yeah
Ay, ay, ay
Ay, ay, ay
[Chorus]
I'm holding on your rope, got me ten feet off the ground
And I’m hearing what you say, but I just can't make a sound
You tell me that you need me, then you go and cut me down
But wait
You tell me that you're sorry, didn’t think I'd turn around
And say
[Verse 1]
Walkin' through the hallways, feelin' like a ghost
He tried to talk to her but the words won't come up out his throat
Momma got fired so he wear the same clothes
Eviction notice on the door, apartment getting foreclosed
Paps died, overdosed, momma raising kids alone
But then locked up for selling drugs, case moving slow
Straight A student, odds stacked against him
Looking in the mirror, he'd just see his dad's reflection
Every day, lonely, his homies ain't his homies
Graduation day, no family at the ceremony
Moved out, him and his momma started growing apart
Her destination, just a couple bags of clothes and a car, yeah
