Doron Jamil - True Story Lyrics




Real life situations
Let's go

True Story

He had rough life, standing 6yrs old
His daddy shipped back to that Caribbean home

Deportation complicated situation
Moms on drugs
Running from her inner Satan

Yeah, it be's like that
Abandoned house two children
Mom strung on crack
While she's out
He keeps his little sister

Searching through the cupboard
Wondering what scraps to fix her

He only seven
Working the stove
'Cuz his mom prostituting
In and out home

One night a man gets O-C
Slamming him down
As he tried to help his mommy

Damn

Next day he goes to school
But when he in there
He breaking every single rule
Stranded in a room
Wit' nothing to eat
He takes him and his sister
And then hits the streets

Skin mahogany
She stood eighty-seven
Turned to me and said every day is a blessing
The sweetest joy ever present in this elder
Stood a few feet from me but I still felt her
What's kept her from being pessimistic?
Love overflowing I could see it in her spirit

Skin smooth
Wrinkles barely showin'
Peaceful soul from within
She was glowin'
Reminiscent of my grandma who passed
And in the end only memories we have
No matter good or bad they become our story
I can see her now
Giving God glory

What lies before me?
I don't really know
So I spread wings
And never lose hope
Wise words I wrote
That came from within
And so I bare it all
With the end of a pen

Scorched earth
Sun beating down

Desert each direction
An old small town

No one is around
'Cuz everyone left

When they heard war planes
Bombing them to death

Looking for a few
A needle in a haystack

Remote controlled drones
Designed to split ya' wig back

Yeah
Death and destruction
Kill or be killed
War's only function

Will it ever heal?
The pain and the misery
While political parties
Show no empathy
And no sympathy
What are we doing?
Dying over dollars
Peace lying in the ruin

In the end
What can be done?
Pain will surely end when we see we're all one
Perception is reality
We are what we believe
When we're at war
Love's the first casualty

Yeah
Life is what you make it
Yes this is true
But tell me what happens
When life tries to make you
