4 To A Unit (2017)

from April Songs 2015​-​19 by Kevin Seconds

lyrics

cinder block living, lo-fi apartments
up on a hill on the East side of town
4 to a unit and everything’s broken
we struggled together, but felt all alone
mama did better than we all expected
but she was too young, had to learn on the job
many a night, we would ease all our tension
our punk rock records gave purpose and soul

(chorus)
and if you wanna take a run at sweet nostalgia
Patton Drive is your best bet
and if ya don’t believe the stories that i told ya
the proof is on the internet

stacked up and failing, like lego block torture
6 kids above us, too many to feed
they’d stomp on the floor when the music got louder
the cops never bothered, they hated our street
the fistfights at midnight, apartment on fire
it rarely made sense but it happened a lot
i’m not reminiscing, those days are behind me
it gave me a mission, i haven’t forgot

(chorus)
