i miss my treehouse

Used to chill up in my treehouse

High above the clouds, inside a world, I couldn't be found

I was doing me, all by myself and staying positive

Fall asleep and wake up, had a dream about accomplishments

Ima do It all

As long I can stay committed

I don't want a 9:00 to 5:00

Cuz I'm too high above the city

Know my mom is getting worried,

Promised I would make her proud, but

Then they cut my treehouse down

Flash forward twenty years

Group work, twenty peers

Stuck in grad school

I'm mad cool, but that don't matter here

Had to sacrifice my goals cuz now I got a family

No more music, no more lyrics, no more dreams of winning Grammys

Had to man up for my girl and drop my plan to change the world

Cuz they said that ain't realistic

Especially for misfits

Integrity was cut in half

Sit atop a lonely stump

Think about what could've been

I can't go back, but wе ain't done

We ain't done, yeah

We ain't done

We ain't done

Cuz I built my son a treehouse

And made it somеwhere he will always be found

He can be himself; Ima cherish his accomplishments

Got a new role, great man on my father shit

Ima tell him everything they never let me learn

And I'ma teach him how to swim in case the bridges ever burn

I know that one day, he gon' make it, and I'll see him at the top

Love my family forever, even after time stops
