Neverland

[Verse 1]

Back in sixth grade, Marshall Mathers on my speakers
I thought everything was funny I was laughing at some tweakers
Ten years away and now it's coming back to beat us
I couldn't get no sleep I thought my brother had to leave us
They said you started hard shit I believe in you
I've been gone but I believe you had a reason to
Ain't many people know the shit that poverty does
When it's feeling like your work pays monopoly bucks
Got ten bucks left when you finally get a check saved
Let's say you're tryna spend it in the best way
Do you wanna get straight and get a little debt paid
Or do you wanna use it to get a little head space
In a moment like you I guess I know what I'd do
And I know cuz I ain't shocked when they told me the news
Going getting rocks and they know all the truth
Then you said you're getting off but ain't show em no proof
Remember how we're missing both our dads right
I'm sure that it was different in a past life
You ain't hear it but you gotta get your act right
And now you can't forget it like the last time

[Hook]

We done came a long way out from Neverland
The only thing you ever had to be was better man
Every time I see your eyes they've been redder man
I'm hoping that this time there's a second chance
We done came a long way out from Neverland
The only thing you ever had to be was better man
Every time I see your eyes they've been redder man
I'm hoping that this time there's a second chance

[Verse 2]

Imagine missing all your daughters birthdays
Dad did and he was on it in the worst way
30 years old but regardless he would turn gray
Looking like a man who forgot it in the first place
It's kinda easy from a bird's eye view
Think nobody's thought the same words like you
You think those other guys didn't think they beat the system?
You think those other guys think they'll get addicted?
From people in the prisons to their momma's in the grave
The first couple years they probably thought they're safe
Walking in the rain to their dealer and the fear
Is that it's gonna be too late when lucidity appears
When you're up two days and your friends stole your shit
And your first thought from that is it's getting old again
And the people that you run with are fiending for a chemical
When they see you have a job and believe that it's a miracle

[Hook]

We done came a long way out from Neverland
The only thing you ever had to be was better man
Every time I see your eyes they've been redder man
I'm hoping that this time there's a second chance
We done came a long way out from Neverland
The only thing you ever had to be was better man
Every time I see your eyes they've been redder man
