J. Gamble - Rooftop

I don't know why I'm standing on this rooftop
I've been close to the edge more than a few times
And I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why
I don't know why I'm standing on this rooftop
I've been close to the edge more than a few times
And I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why
They saying mental health has been problem
And all my homies know we got 'em
It's gets lonely at the bottom
Smile on my face but in my head its like Gotham
You wonder why Im so serious
In a world like this, are you delirious?
There's no hope for The Joker
Go woke you go broke like no-limit poker
I woke up on the road to success
Gotta watch for roadblocks and holes in cement
I came a long way from days of jumping over the fence
All the times that I went too close to the edge
Yo, you're never too old to get bread
So, why you got dough for the Dro but no doe for the rent?
We're supposed to be men
But any time we need to talk
Yo, there's no where to vent
I don't know why I'm standing on this rooftop
I've been close to the edge more than a few times
And I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why
I don't expect you to understand
What its like to be a man
Or what its like to raise a family
Or what its like to own some land
Have you ever lost everything?
And everything was all you ever had
And nobody gives a fuck
Because you never asked for a hand
Life is full of responsibilities
I'm talking mortgage plus the utilities
Work your whole life long just to get a little piece
Now your whole life gone just so you can rest in peace
That's fucked up now
Sometimes I need cuss out loud
I swear, I've had up it up to here
For too many years
Smoked too many blunts
Drank too many beers
I don't know why I'm standing on this rooftop
I've been close to the edge more than a few times
And I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why
I don't know why I'm standing on this rooftop
I've been close to the edge more than a few times
And I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why
