about

A song about the patch of asphalt among the concrete on S. Vermont and 54th in South Central LA

lyrics

I am bordered by these struggling lives
and stepped on every day
caught between the things I need
and the things I need to say
But I stay silent, and surrounded
my resilience is all I have
where I am is where I stay
where I am is where I'll stay
the Sun and I are friends, but I love the Rain
I just want to believe that I can change.

So make me whole again, I'm crumbling
I believe in myself and all,
but I'm not where I'm supposed to be
I've got my back against a wall
I can't love
Wish I could love

I fill a space I do not fit
I can't deny that I need fixed
these cracks let more than light in
just because you see me doesn't mean I'm not hiding

I fill a space I do not fit
I been looking for a way to make em hear me screaming

make me whole again, I'm crumbling
