LYRICS: Soon as I could walk I swear I hit the road running Got the rundown from my parents, pushed me toward it cause they love me But I knew I had these options yea, look at where we come from Home is in the heart of it so what we supposed to run from? Been losing friends and family since forever They don’t see me doing good, they just see me doing “better” That’s a mindset that I hate cause I’m not in no competition Sometimes they hear it calling but they choosing not to listen Watched my homies go from strong to feeling down Family going from alive to in the ground The road is lonely I’m just searching for the sounds of all my people cause I wish they were around Red road blues… Full of light Full of life Full of clarity Full of blessings all around and they hearing me cqll out your name Things won’t be the same Wish you would’ve changed Now my world is plain Red roads lonely days Why my people suffering? Children out here wondering.. Why their parents so thirsty? Children are hurting Red road blues. I’ve walked this shit my whole life Had only family most my childhood Cousins making fun for choosing different cause I understood The situations that were laid out right in front of me Aunties and my uncles drunk and laid out right in front of me Parents threw the bottles out the house to set example Some need lifetimes of lessons, I only needed handful Cause now my cousins out here struggling with addictions Close friends chose the bottle and they all just went missing It’s a beautiful life yea that’s the truth But life’s a balance so I guess it’s just some shit you got to lose Watched my brother lose his life I swear that broke me I don’t speak or think about him cause I start to get lonely Watching friends throw away careers with every sip yea “Red road blues” let me tell you what it is Watching loved ones from afar you can’t help they gotta wanna help themselves You feel your hope and happiness just start to melt Cause what’s the top and what’s the light if you’re alone? And what’s a fucking house if you can’t even call it home?
