Baltimore

[Verse 1]
When I think about places I could live
I wonder if one's good enough to raise a few Black kids
Wife’s a city girl, and I’m born from the sticks
No hope for me and mine
We just get it how we live

[Pre-Chorus]
Philadelphia always shows love
DC's nice but the summers are tough
New York City, it just costs too much

[Chorus]
I'm thinking about the lives I don't have
Thinking about the lives I don't have
Thinking about the lives I don't have

[Verse 2]
I envision a house with cobblestone
A nook to read with bookshelves built inside the very home
Backyard bluejays so my girl's not alone
And a lake that freezes over when the winter months come

[Pre-Chorus]
Toronto’s beautiful, but it’s not time
LA’s got everything, except for people like mine
Chicago’s perfect, but do you want to grind?

[Chorus]
I’m thinking about the lives I don’t have
Thinking about the lives I don’t have
Thinking about the lives I don’t have
Thinking about the lives I don’t have
