Shane Eli - Grey Area lyrics
Hello Hello
It's been a while since I've seen you
Been a while since I've seen you
What's your name again
What's your name,
v.1:
They say shane be black,
I say I can't be that,
They put my back to the wall,
I turn around and beat that,
Wall down til it breaks,
Like I made a mistake,
Being born this way,
Like I chose that pain,
So instead I'll be me,
They say I talk white,
Wondering my whole life,
How I talk like a color,
Not another fist fight,
Try to be a black brother,
Can't feel your struggle,
And you don't feel mine,
I'm living in a dream,
Couldn't be real life,
And Obama means nothing,
People say he's just half,
When he was coming up,
You know people just laughed,
How pathetic that folks,
Place label on a past,
He couldn't control,
When it comes to my soul,
I'mma carve my path,
Walk this road on my own,
And baby boy knows,
Reconciling everyday,
Identify with both sides,
So I'm living in the grey,
I am living in the grey,
Hook:
They keep on saying there'll be better days,
I waited for em but they never came,
Never knew just who I was,
Spent my whole life living in the grey,
They say success'll give you everything,
TO get success they say you have to change,
So this is my middle finger to they,Shane Eli - Grey Area - http://motolyrics.com/shane-eli/grey-area-lyrics.html
Spent my whole life living in the grey
v.2
Cold Coffee, Hot Milk,
Little Half n Half,
Half black bastard's path,
Thanks dad, I'mma put you on the list,
You were non-existent,
No phone calls: birthdays, Christmas,
Where was the guidance, And the support,
Punk bitch, how it feel to know
My mom taught me how to play sports,
And Came to my games,
Man you drove me insane,
Thinking that I wasn't worth you,
Like I don't deserve you,
How you grow into a man,
When the one that births you,
Deserts you,
So I hope my success hurts you,
Comfortable -
Now I'm out the dark like a curfew,
So this is just the purview,
Of mommas boy's world view,
You can listen to these words 'til,
You're blue,
In the face,
You will never know me,
I am one mistake,
You can never take away,
--Look at what your son became,
Spent my whole life living in the grey

Spent my whole life living in the grey,
They say success'll give you everything,
TO get success they say you have to change,
So this is my middle finger to they,
Spent my whole life living in the grey
,everything I'm not made me everything I am.
Ha ha.
Eveything I'm not made me everything I am.
Uh Uh.
Everything I'm not made me everything I am.
I am living in the grey,
