6pm In Pa Video (MV)

You know, it was beautiful over there
6 p.m. in PA
Jersey to Pa man what can I say
I was tired of moving what felt like every day
Mom wasn't joking, packed her bags and got out the way
I was just a lil boy, I ain't have no say
Pops couldn't get his act straight, my momma was forced to go a certain way
I don't have a certain date, all I know is 2 hours later we were in PA
And I was like "yay"
I think I just wanted my George to race
I ain't know that then, but I know it now
You getting mad at mom for something you allowed
I don't get in between parent beef, I just listen to the sounds
But all your actions are for reactions from the crowd
Ain't it a damn shame but hey
I don't hold grudges or point and blame
I'm just calling it how I saw it in that day and age
Lil quiet kid Elijah but you know he's brave
I appreciate the last name, I just wish my momma could've also shared the same
Damn
But it's okay, we took our trip to PA
Then somehow ended back in NJ
Eli what to say? "I don't know, just counting days"
And it just felt like yesterday we were on a street called Pake
It didn't have a lake
Even if it did hurricane Sandy would've blown it all away
It wasn't that bad, others had it worse
Worse than a black and white lady on a bus clenching her damn purse
Sometimes I just feel my color is cursed
You cannot say that I did this off a rehearse
Because this is real shit out the stomach put into a verse
Change was something that I was afraid of
I changed and now look I'm in 11th grade
2 a.m. in NJ I was worrying about how I was going to graduate
Wanted to cut myself like a boxer trying to make weight
All because I ain't wanna change a damn state?
You heard what momma said, she's liked it in PA
Man I love NJ but it just wasn't the right place
It's a change of course it's not gonna be the same
So lemme translate
I don't think I'm sad that I'm leaving it
Yeah we in PA but I'm 2 hours away from my family
Won the battle so I guess the war will be a calamity
As you can see we're being happy unhappily
Ginger for example
He kept me calm when I was borderline insanity
Shit pulling me down and it ain't just gravity
In my head all different fantasies
Had to snap back to reality
Cuz spitting that shit hurts like a cavity
That's what happens when you spit lies between your teeth and don't floss
Yeah we in PA but losing my family was the damn cost
I don't wanna go back cuz then I'll end up lost
I feel like Jersey is my backbone even though that line's already crossed
If I make the league
Jersey's on my back and I'll take number 3
The only two above me are Jerry Rice and Randy Moss nigga
Woo
Just take me back to the old days
I wanna go back to the old days, but I don't wanna pick back up my old ways
Damn, I miss those days
6 p.m. in PA
It's crazy how time actually works
Literally
Cause I remember I just made 2 a.m. in NJ, and
My perspective on life was way different
So, I appreciate the change
I just
Don't like the change that I got back, if that makes sense
I miss my family
