john hill - half of me lyrics

[verse one]:
middle of the map man, middle’s the cl-ss
a lot of privilege when i think of my past, that wouldn’t last
see a lot of cats takin’ the path
the fast lane and i’m hittin’ the gas, they move fast
see the move that and recoup cash
and how they get it, they won’t tell and you don’t ask
private school gettin’ a’s and b’s
other dudes tryin’ to earn and upgrade to keys
and other dudes gettin’ paid from weed
the load up the trunk, no punk, they pump for g’s
see i had dreams of college and dorms
other dudes kick in your door, you lay on the floor
i knew a chick used to workin’ for tears
been in and out the strip club for like 13 years
see i was raised to judge that fast
who the f-ck am i to judge what she does for cash?
so…

[chorus]:
“half of me is gone away”
you know what i mean man, it’s like, it’s like
“half of me is gone away”
that spoiled -ss way of thinkin’
cause i ain’t come up like that
“half of me is gone away”
yo you see the struggle that’s others know man
“half of me is gone away”
you know it’s like half of me is gone
if you see what others go through

[verse two]:
as i grew old i grew cold
when you lose your father figure you don’t do what you’re told
make it harder on your mother cause she lose control
soon as you lose your daddy like you lose your soul
see, i ain’t him, he a godd-mn savage
i don’t wanna be like him, i got them habits
forget about him when you light up cabbage
only started feelin’ right, writin’ rhymes on canvas
went from cl-ss clown, to it ain’t so funny
i started hatin’ him and hatin’ money
started gettin’ depressed like i can’t win
any time somethin’ wrong, f-ck it, i blame him
no prob, fell out with god from watchin’ him
be p-ssed out at church, come home and sin
f-ck homework, he home from work then i’m up
all i ever heard was, “sh-t brain”, “b-tch” and “f-ck”
so…

[chorus]:
“half of me is gone away”
i mean that man, it’s like
“half of me is gone away”
know what i mean man?
you lose him, you lose a piece of you man
“half of me is gone away”
but i did learn from him man
“half of me is gone away”

[verse three]:
it’s like the better half of me’s gone
this the last verse to the song and then so long
how can something so right make me act so wrong
but it’s like i saw the sun when my son was born
yeah, see he was born on 3/16
he my heart, i give my heart on these three sixteens
i don’t do it for me, i do it for him
it’s a business so sh-t i gotta do it to win
yeah, now this it what i’m supposed to be doin’
i love this sh-t since i got my first poster of ewing
used to put the loc’s on, try to lip sync eazy
now i’m watchin’ elmo, quit livin’ so greasy
i love your mother way more than before
i love your smile on your face when she walks in the door
yeah, believe it or not, i see what we got
and it make me wanna see my pops
it’s like

[chorus]:
“half of me is gone away”
you know…
“half of me is gone away”
my little dude man
half of me’s gone man
“half of me is gone away”
actually all of me’s gone man
everything i do is for you man
“half of me is gone away”
lil’ jack man

[outro]:
h-ll yeah man in a lot of ways. but i’ve grown too man. a new half comes in man. what up to all my people man. what up to my pops
