[Verse 1]

Frozen foods in the night

Cassava chips on the couch

Laughing to moldy rice

Tables covered with dust

The black man come search for us

They came to conquer our house

I sit back down when they rush

For money they have locked us

[Chorus]

Got no feet to walk but you still have got to run

All of the stacks of your debt

Now it’s thicker than your mouth

They tried to bury you beneath all that you regret

You regret

I wanna help you out, I wanna help you out

[Verse 2]

Wish that I could set you free

From all the ropes that choke your neck

Up until now I could recall

The fear I feel every time the door was knocked

[Chorus]

Got no feet to walk but you still have got to run

All of the stacks of your debt

Now it’s thicker than your mouth

They tried to bury you beneath all that you regret

You regret

I wanna help you out, I wanna help you out

[Bridge]

Live long enough to watch me grow

(That’s all I hope for)

Live long enough to see me rise

(That’s all I hope for)

Live long enough to watch me grow

That’ll do it all

[Outro]

In time I feel grateful for

Hard times that we’ve been through

We’re closer than ever before

Now I’ve grown up, I’ll help you out
