Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Mama never held me right

Daddy missed a lotta nights

Learned to read a cold face

Before I learned to read a sign

Sleepin' with one eye open

On a stoop by the bodega

Friends turned into smoke quick

Like a lesson I could save up

I wanted love, got lectures

I wanted hands, got scars

Every promise came half-built

Every kiss left a mark

Now I talk with my jaw locked

Keep my heart in a safe

'Cause the ones I let too close

Always knew how to break

[Pre-Chorus]

I been tryna leave the block

With this ache up in my chest

If I make it, I make it raw

I ain't settlin' for less

Need a place where I can breathe

Need a room with my own name

If you touch me, touch me real

'Cause I don't play them games

[Chorus]

Love me right, love me right

I been hurt too many times

Brooklyn boy, still on the run

Tryna turn pain into mine

Love me right, love me right

I got scars you can't disguise

From the hood to something more

I'm still reachin' for the sky

[Verse 2]

Seen my cousins flip that work

For a shot at better days

Seen my brother take the fall

For the rent and for the wave

Seen moms cry over bills

Seen the fridge stay dressed in light

Seen a whole block raise a kid

Then watch that same kid fight

So I hustle with the hunger

And I study every door

'Cause I know what broke can do

When it gets tired of bein' poor

I don't need a perfect life

I need somebody real

Who don't leave when my name gets hard

And my wounds start to feel

[Pre-Chorus]

I been tryna leave the block

With this ache up in my chest

If I make it, I make it raw

I ain't settlin' for less

Need a place where I can breathe

Need a room with my own name

If you touch me, touch me real

'Cause I don't play them games

[Chorus]

Love me right, love me right

I been hurt too many times

Brooklyn boy, still on the run

Tryna turn pain into mine

Love me right, love me right

I got scars you can't disguise

From the hood to something more

I'm still reachin' for the sky

[Bridge]

If I get out, don't let me

Turn to all the things I hate

Let me keep my hood heart beatin'

Let me keep my soul awake

I ain't askin' for a handout

I just need a chance to rise

One true love and one real shot

Could change the whole of my life

[Final Chorus]

Love me right, love me right

I been hurt too many times

Brooklyn boy, still on the run

Tryna turn pain into mine

Love me right, love me right

I got scars you can't disguise

From the hood to something more

I'm still reachin' for the sky
