[00:00.00]Swing Life Away - mgk
[00:21.29]Am I loud and clear
[00:22.42]Or do I gotta scream like I did every day
[00:24.35]When I was a troubled teen huh
[00:25.60]Do you want to know my past and see every single scar
[00:28.91]And know what they mean huh
[00:30.22]17 running up in Mickey D's begging
[00:32.15]For a double cheese huh
[00:33.71]Singing "I don't want to grow up don't nobody
[00:36.46]Like you when your 23"
[00:37.71]I came from nothing but a f**king
[00:39.64]Unsupportive father I don't ever see
[00:41.20]I had to watch a crooked jury
[00:43.57]Put my brother in the penitentiary
[00:44.82]I never fit in
[00:46.45]Criticism made me the man I couldn't be
[00:49.25]I'm reminiscing on when life was different
[00:51.56]Spending every day at Chuckee Cheese uh
[00:53.56]We live on front porches and swing life away
[00:56.30]We get by just fine here on minimum wage
[01:01.36]If love is a labor I'll slave till the end
[01:05.48]And I'll run these streets if you give me a chance
[01:09.47]I've been here so long
[01:11.90]Maybe I should runaway
[01:12.71]Try to find a summer day
[01:15.40]What is love
[01:16.46]Love is pain
[01:17.52]Love is butterflies and stomach aches
[01:19.45]Love is looking out a windowpane
[01:21.26]Tears dripping looking like you're in the rain
[01:23.38]For someone you don't even know
[01:25.01]But for somebody you may never see again
[01:27.19]I am only alive once
[01:28.31]And I'mma die when God wants
[01:30.43]So fill the sky with diamonds
[01:33.12]Because that's how it's gonna look when I'm gone
[01:36.05]Had a vision as a kid that one day
[01:37.74]I would change the world with my song
[01:39.29]Several years have passed and now that vision
[01:40.92]Came to life that boy's a f**king icon
[01:42.54]We live on front porches and swing life away
[01:46.53]We get by just fine here on minimum wage
[01:50.15]If love is a labor I'll slave till the end
[01:54.02]And I'll run these streets if you give me a chance
[02:02.26]Sometimes I don't want to f**king wake up
[02:06.00]When all they want to do is bring me down
[02:09.94]And all the things I've went through as I came up
[02:13.74]Are the f**king reasons why I run this town
[02:15.80]We live on front porches and swing life away
[02:19.23](and to my fans I told you)
[02:20.56]We get by just fine here on minimum wage
[02:23.49]If love is a labor I'll slave till the end
[02:27.30]And I'll run these streets if you give me a chance
[02:31.42]We live on front porches and swing life away
[02:34.97](all my dreamers)
[02:35.66]We get by just fine here on minimum wage
[02:38.97](stay real)
[02:39.53]If love is a labor I'll slave till the end
[02:42.59](and to my love)
