Have you ever met a woman who'd do anything for a hit

Ya know the bitch who'd sell her fuckin' soul for one fix

I have

Mama never showed me an ounce of love

Don't even remember one fuckin' hug

Mama was a junkie and a two-bit whore

Wasn't a man in town who didn't cross her fuckin' door

I ain't saying she didn't have her pros

'Cause she did

Sold me for ten thousand bucks as a kid

Might be thinkin' to yourself"What the fuck?"

Don't worry though

That turned out to be a different kinda luck

Quieter nights and slower days

First time in my life I felt okay

Warm food on the table

And Batman sheets on the bed

That was the only time sleep ever came easy

Livin' like I did

That luck went by the name of Grandma Ruth

She did the best she could, man

That's fuckin' truth

She gave me a home

And begged me to stay

She couldn't stand the thought

Of Dad takin' me away

But every lil' boy should be with their dad

Maybe he could fill the fuckin' hole I had

So I moved in with Dad

When he and Mama split

Didn't know then

But I was steppin' in a whole world of shit

Had a real good home

Just for a little while

Warm bed, full plates

And a real fuckin' smile

If love is luck

Then hell, I was lucky once

But that fuckin' devil, man

Always gets his cut

It was heaven at first, man

I had fuckin' won

Got a new room, new bed

I was finally done

Yeah, he played that part

Of a carin' father smooth

Had me thinkin

Everything was nice and new

Trust me though

That didn't last very fuckin' long

Same dance

Different song

He took the mattresses

Outta the room

Makin' me sleep on the floor

Then that son of a bitch

Threw a fuckin' lock on my door

His hands always got heavy

When he'd drink

And every time

My heart sank

Had a real good home

Just for a little while

Warm bed, full plates

And a real fuckin' smile

If love is luck

Then hell, I was lucky once

But that fuckin' devil, man

Always gets his cut

I started sayin' my truth

And man

I don't know if I'll ever stop

Been holdin' this shit so long

That lock has fuckin' popped

Got a lifetime of noise

Jumbled up inside

If it sounds like I'm screamin

It's 'cause I fuckin' survived

I fuckin' survived
