Haystak - Middle Of Nowhere Lyrics

All I set out to do was get some food and some rent money too
To tell the truth the vocal booth was my sanctuary
I spent endless hours in there I was so contrary
Damn, I tell my boy Nick to stop Man, that wasn't it so let's take it from the top
But being in here beats running from the cops
And swallowing rocks so I don't get caught
Knocked then locked, cuffed then booked
And in the mean time court cases got me shook
What they gonna do
What's gonna be the out come
In the mean time I'm gonna cut another album
How come poor people never get acquitted
If the mother f*ckers say ya did it then ya did it
The next thing you know your being sentenced
Snoody ass hoosiers like good riddance
Bitches you don't know how my life is
You ain't ever had to live like this Made front of my off brand no name high tops
My people couldn't afford nike's and reeboks but you ain't about to pick on me man
My family doing the best we can Goodbye,
I never hustled to get by
I never hustled to get high
I hustled to survive
This is my life

The road I came down was a bumpy one
Through the middle of nowhere
Ol country one
Resting my feet was so comforting
I knew my work was not for nothing

The road I came down was a bumpy one
Through the middle of nowhere
Ol country one
Resting my feet was so comforting
I knew my work was not for nothing

People said I'd never live to be grown
Before I turn 18 I'd probably be gone
Sad and in a cemetary talkin to a stone feelin so all alone
Roll some purple kush or some northern light
But my grandmama says there's more to life then in good times
I sit down to write a good rhyme and rolled a joint that's every bit of a good dime
So stressed I try to ease my mind Mama said baby that's the way that it's gonna be sometime
I'd be so sick of trying
Most men would've coward out and just started crying
I'm facing God so strong he won't leave me alone
Gave me a mind to think with
Two feet 2 stand on
One hand to write with
Two hands to fight with
Wrote a song bout my life it goes like this

The road I came down was a bumpy one,
Through the middle of nowhere,
Ol country one
Resting my feet was so comforting,
I knew my work was not for nothing

The road I came down was a bumpy one
Through the middle of nowhere
Ol country one
Resting my feet was so comforting
I knew my work was not for nothing

Gun shots rang through the streets of my small town
Seemed like slow mo when that little girl fell down
Sad thing is it wasn't even a stray
They just aimed at that baby then blew her away
They said it was some sort of gang ignitation
They were trying to display loyalty and dedication
Why didn't y'all shoot ademo, me, red or jazz
Cause you mother f*ckers know we woulda killed ya ass
I was that kid who went to school cause lunch was free
And all they ever did for me was taught me to read
How to write, add and subtract How many grams was in a ounce of crack
How many ounces in a pound
How many ounces in a kilogram
So what if I fail don't nobody give a damn
Feel so solo
Came in the world dolo
And that's why I'm going to go so

The road I came down was a bumpy one,
Through the middle of nowhere,
Ol country one
Resting my feet was so comforting,
I knew my work was not for nothing

The road I came down was a bumpy one
Through the middle of nowhere
Ol country one
Resting my feet was so comforting
I knew my work was not for nothing
