Healy – Build lyrics
[Chorus]:
Yeah I'm from the city where they buck and they juke in the parking lot
Yeah we tip-toe 'round the block but the neighbors still call the cops
Yeah good intention misconstrued, I ain't tryna get locked up
Gotta give back to what give you life
I'm just tryna build my block up

[Verse 1]:
Venus like Otherlands
Corner like a fly trap
Yeah Midtown motherland
Mental marathons
I run mind laps

The city sing to me
Train whistle harmony with it
(train whistle blows)

Momma found the matches underneath my bed
and she like "where the weed boy, where the cigarettes at?"
Nuh uh uh uh
Momma you don't understand
The block lit a fire underneath your little man

Yeah see I done grown up on boom bap
Kwik Chek, bim bop
Zaywop taught me
Tennessee could pop


Hood rock
First stone
Skip both, stay home, lay low
Say I'm closet like Draco

I borrowed shadows
That's alone
The neighborhood drew me a rainbow
I borrowed shadows
That's a loan
The neighborhood drew me a rainbow

[Chorus]
