Turf Lyrics - Amine

[Aminé:] 

Walking on the pavement I check my pride and my teeth on 

The girl I grew up with lives a couple houses down 

The 8 Bus run the same, dogs howl when the train 

Comes like me ex girl and next girl 

Used to rock the S curl 

Wanted me a Nextel but my momma copped a Razr 

That's why I couldn't blame her 

Flipping through my past like I used to flip the phone 

They kicking out the blacks and all the houses getting clones 

Friends used to do pills and only eat at Du's Grill 

The food was pretty good but the times was better 

These are the only days I missed 

Like the first shawty I kissed 

I used to have dreams now I dream

I look around and I see nothing in my neighborhood 

Not satisfied don't think I ever wanna stay for good 

Packed up my bags, told mom and dad I gotta go, go 

And once I do they'll finally see the inner me 

Everybody wanna be a star, everybody want a nice car 

Everybody wanna live great, have a good damn time, never trip with the law 

The popo up in PO, dirtier than VO 

Bullies from the past act like I'm they fucking hero 

Living in LA for the weather, I facetime mom when I miss her 

I got some homies that'll never leave my home 

When I pull up to the corner, it smell like Miley Cyrus 

I told em' I don't smoke, they say "boy, you fucking wildin'" 

Innocent and young, reckless and we dumb 

Our heart is like our earth and memories the sun 

I look around and I see nothing in my neighborhood 

Not satisfied don't think I ever wanna stay for good 

Packed up my bags, told mom and dad I gotta go, go 

And once I do they'll finally see the inner me 

Photos 

Mentality the same from my folks 

Momma wanna see me happy, she don't wanna see me broke 

I said "bread wine, sauvignon, rastafari, babylon" 

You can never die if I live it like a prize (hey!) 

Who knows who I am, who knows who I are 

Most people pretty sketch like a night at Echo Park 

That's why I just keep it cool but my time is in a leisure 

Everytime I'm home I catch emotion like a seizure 

I cut the first night, we fuck around, I put my finger in her bootyhole cause you know you gotta test the water with hoes. A-a-and then... 

I slip and slide through the times in my youth 

What's the age? Too young to worry, too old to dream 

What's the age? Imagination to me, tragedy to some 

What's the age? I guess we'll find out when we're older. Touché 

I look around and I see nothing in my neighborhood 

Not satisfied don't think I ever wanna stay for good 

Packed up my bags, told mom and dad I gotta go, go 

And once I do they'll finally see the inner me 

Oh 

Ooh, oh, ooh, oh yeah 

Ooh, ooh, oh yeah, ooh 

Yeah-eah-eah-eah-eah 

Oo yeah-eah-eah-eah 

Ohhhh hmm 

Ohhhh hmm 

Hmm 

Hmm
