skip waiters - true story lyrics

[intro]
now to this story that we’re following, a house fire in reading has claimed the life of a thirteen+year+old girl
it was around 4 a.m. when first responders arrived at the home along summit avenue
they found a sixty+three+year+old man inside, he was rushed to the hospital
he’s listed in critical condition right now
firefighters were not able to revive the young teenager

[verse 1]
clocking in on the grave shift, i see dead bodies (dead bodies)
ptsd, this is how i got it
black man did a stunt, he jumped out his body
landеd on the concrete, hе can’t tell his story (the end)
i did cpr for a drop
fell seven stories, he ain’t make it out
got blood on my glove tryna save his life
hope he finally found peace by the lord’s side
i been workin’ 24/7
wrappin’ bodies by the clock, i need intervention
i been numbed to the heart, hard to pay attention
if i don’t know the body, i can’t make connection
is there something wrong with me? or so i thought
but then my auntie died, twistin’ up the plot
been a minute since i cried for a cause
but there was love ’cause she chose to be with god
made it home after bondin’ with my cousin
i just got the news that she died from combustion
fire in the house, but she turned back for somethin’
could’ve made it out, i wish she had a better reason
[chorus]
my uncle in a coma (true story)
and the news on the corner (true story)
wish she grew a bit older (true story)
thirteen, her life over (true story)
summer nights feel colder (true story)
long talks with the coroner (true story)
now her life in a folder (true story)
pray to god we get older (true story)

[verse 2]
i been through calamity, i’m hard on myself
this a private sk!ll, got me livin’ in a sh+ll
paint a perfect picture, i can leave it on the shelf
at a crossroad, i could really use the help
life is but a vapor
can’t predict tomorrow, so it’s best we live safer (safe)
seen so many souls come and go with the (reaper)
got high hopes, one day, i’ll get to meet her (meet her)
believer
it’s pourin’ and i’m wet, i can stand the rain
black cloud, pink sky, look like candy paint
i can ask god why he don’t make mistakes
had to watch paint dry as i contemplate

[chorus]
my uncle in a coma (true story)
and the news on the corner (true story)
wish she grew a bit older (true story)
thirteen, her life over (true story)
summer nights feel colder (true story)
long talks with the coroner (true story)
now her life in a folder (true story)
pray to god we get older (true story)
[outro]
who’s the, who’s the best cousin in the world?
mr. barry
i was kidding
