Song Lyrics

"All Alone"

by Dre Murray
Album: Gold Rush: Maybe One Day

[Hook]
Though the trouble's in the dark
I will hold all the lights on you
We give ourselves a shining star
All alone. All alone

[Verse 1: Dre Murray]
You threw me in that ocean and I can't swim
But drowning is second nature
Sharks ready to hate you
Sharks ready to eat you
Violence ready to meet you
So I'm a time bomb
Whole body covered in ether
Ready to show the world my inside
Looking for that nice young boy
Well he been died
Been trying to reach him
Streets dying to keep him
Coaches see is ambition
Use Len Bias to teach him
But they can't save him
Though they mean well
It's not the same pedigree
They never seen Hell
They fathers fed them legacy
They never seen frail
I'd be happy with a Sunday
Where I see male
Pick up his little child and
Take him to the field
I'm like maybe one day
'Cause that's not real
'Til then I'm dodging gun play
And pray I'm in your will
Alone on this journey
Pray I don't get killed

[Hook]
Though the trouble's in the dark
I will hold all the lights on you
We give ourselves a shining start
All alone. All alone

[Verse 2: Dre Murray]
I'm 15 looking at this black queen
Raising three men in a household where that dream
Was obtained and the way was shown on that screen
Entertainment or playing for some whack team
Or maybe throw some work up on the scales
See many kinemy fail and fall due to that crack beam
What would you do when the man of the house
Is nil you hustle 'cause those bills they keep stacking
And we view this as just a normality
Around my way, broken home's a technicality
So tragic, the hero is absent
And Lois Lane gotta go and pull three salaries
'Cause these growing boys don't count calories
Plus them J's is nice, these pants too tight
And when I see these Pro Wings, they starting a fight
Momma love me but my heart telling me
This ain't right. It ain't life

[Hook]
Though the trouble's in the dark
I will hold all the lights on you
We give ourselves a shining start
All alone. All alone
