Outside My Window

Lay your head on my pillow
 And let the world just drift away and think about how long we go
 Without ever finding words to say and think about how much we know
 When it comes down to day 2 day
 The lives outside our windows
 Struggling to find their way
 You think you got it rough but someone always got it worse
 Take the time to recollect and live your life for all it's worth
 You can always make it better and it's always what they say
 But in your head you always thinking they don't understand my way
 They don't lead the life I live or the prices that I paid
 Mistakes they keep me shackled shit don't ever go away
 Daily troubles keep me baffled color in the shades of grey
 It's always hard to tackle learning lessons of the day
 Can't find some rest hold my pillow where I lay,
 And will I wake up gasping tryna find the words to say
 The question I keep asking will we see the better days
 As we push on through the struggles will we have a different gaze
 Same old vision of the world in disarray
 High definition heartache and blue ray
 Story of my life it could be a screen play close your eyes lay back
 And let the world drift away
 Lay your head on my pillow
 And let the world just drift away and think about how long we go
 Without ever finding words to say and think about how much we know
 When it comes down to day 2 day
 The lives outside our windows
 Struggling to find their way
 Watching the news on my 60 inch screen dude talking about a shooting
 Live from the scene all I'm thinking about is did he a family
 I see my own and their picture staring back at me
 Motivation from the people offended that me
 Cultivating a way to make it through another week
 Hesitating by the window looking in the street
 Pillows waiting damn I need some sleep
 Guess I'll get enough when I'm dead and gone
 A toast to the gutter on my tombstone
 Hope I live long enough to see my kids grown
 Give me pearly gates now fire and brimstone
 Slamming on my brakes burning up the Firestones
 Speaking to the world through my microphone
 Goodbye cruel world now my homie dead and gone
 Why did he do it damn I guess I'll never know
 Lay your head on my pillow
 And let the world just drift away and think about how long we go
 Without ever finding words to say and think about how much we know
 When it comes down to day 2 day
 The lives outside our windows struggling to find their way
