Boy Named Blue - Tremaine (feat. Miles Ananda)

It's your favorite Capricorn
Young token black
Coming back for more
See I'm child of divorce
Going back and forth
Don't know how to act
Steady going forward
And I'm bout to lose my home
Right there on Tremaine
Gentrify my zone
Driving me insane
Sending me away
But no "farewells"
Yeah Let me introduce myself
I'm the boy named Blue
Let me prove myself
Gotta move on
Mom could use my help.
But I could as well

It's that 90019
In the sunshine
Where I grew up
Learned to bike ride
I first stood up
Back in hindsight
Seeing my life
Call me Kai kai
Don did that
Gotta sit back
In the backyard
With the hammock
And my toy cars
All the hotwheels on the planet
Yeah I had em
Had my baby photos under magnets
What a classic
Got to face it
Got to pack em
What has happened

Imagery echoes
Aunt Jemima cover eggos
All the covers borrowed building forts
It's hard to let go
Architecture passion
LEGOS, flashing back to brunch alfresco
Baby doves, sunny skies
Where I learned to love, cry
Rise above pain
Push and shove came
We prevailed, stayed up on our way (Yeah)
To bigger better thangs
Holding yesterday
But bro we get a change
Might just be the move
Pun intented mane
New instead of same
Feelings extra change
Boxing up remains
Talking bout tremaine
Damn
Talkin bout Tremaine... damn...
Heavy

Memories of playing Yu-Gi-Oh! Eating cookie dough of the spoon
Had no AC in mid June
No one played me. No one knew
Hours by myself I would duel myself in my room
Now my cards got dust. They closed toys r us
That was part of us. Now we move
But it's not a game houses on Tremaine
All are turning same nothing new
Different families same rules
Same exact thing I went through
Who knew
