"Train Wreck" lyrics

Uh, born in poor condition, addiction kills ambition
Division in the family due to personal decision
Suspicious 'bout religion to mama's a vicious vision
Daddy's still in prison, not forgiven, deep incision

No family dinners in the kitchen, special moments missin'
Non-fiction chaos glisten, racism's risen
Lambs crimson, bleeds from eye of faithfulists
Sad faces on the pages of Facebook, lookin' for praises

Exchanges of some love, amazing grace from above
Then the rumors get discussed, what the fuck have we become?
We indulge in the drama, catch me outside
How 'bout that, how 'bout this?
Let's get back to lovin' our neighbor, white or black

So, fuck rap, I'd rather go back to the trap than conform
Sunshine gets ignored, but we swarm to watch a storm
Reborn in the flame, inspired lives with my flaws
They don't care about my 'cause, just love the train wreck that I caused, uh

Stories of greatness never reach the pages
And real heroes of today remain nameless
The world's full of crowds with empty stages
But the whole world would stop to watch a train wreck

They'll never tell you failure fuels greatness
Them wild hearts will always remain tameless
They said that pain would never make us famous
But the whole world would stop to watch a train wreck (train wreck)

The whole world would stop to watch a train wreck (train wreck)
The whole world would stop to watch a train wreck

Many days I wake up, just wanna leave it all behind
Been confined to these walls, I built this prison I designed
Try to find where stars align in these empty skies of mine
I feel inclined to remind myself it's part of God's design

Got my family out the mud, we cleaned up nice and now we shine
But the chaos of makin' it seems to steal your piece of mind
Enjoyin' lives how I define success, and yes, I'm blessed
But I still stress because the more I make, the more that they expect

I got nothin' left, but everything, seven kids and my wife
If I'm gone workin' to make a livin', am I livin' life?
Spent too much time gettin' money just to buy back time
Memories lost inside the grind, flip the sign, I resign

Divine intervention, that I got famous while in prison
Not to mention it, my court case got all the fans attention
Now they listen to my music to escape their own reality
But will they stop listenin' if I'm not rappin' 'bout my tragedies?

Stories of greatness never reach the pages
And real heroes of today remain nameless
The world's full of crowds with empty stages
But the whole world would stop to watch a train wreck

They'll never tell you failure fuels greatness
Them wild hearts will always remain tameless
They said that pain would never make us famous
But the whole world would stop to watch a train wreck (train wreck)

The whole world would stop to watch a train wreck (train wreck)
The whole world would stop to watch a train wreck (train wreck)
