Grieves - He Won't Answer Lyrics
Another night in this black water rain cloud
Kickin through the puddles on his way up to the Greyhound and,
In his pocket is a letter from his mother, folded up sayin...
(Where have you beeen?)
Yeah, but he won't write back
Open up his wounds and let em bleed onto the white sand
And you can label him another problem typecast
And stay the hell away from him like everybody else has
And that's exactly why he flees to the road
Nother notch in the war club he keeps in his soul
And if you ever saw him swing it you would easily know
And have the worried urge to ask him
(Where have you beeen?)
Yeah, but he won't answer
Blinkin as the headlights pass him
But sometimes you don't really get what ask for
And life gets so cold and you can never go back home
Where would you go if could never go home? (go home)
What would you say if they never even asked you? (asked you)
Where would you go if could never go home? (go home)
What would you say if they never even asked you? (asked you)
Where would you go if could never go home? (go home)
What would you say if they never even asked you? (asked you)
Where would you go if could never go home? (go home)
What would you say if they never even asked you? (asked you)
The sun rises on a dead open one way
And dilates his pupils like a fire struck his young face
Dead to the world, he's planning his exit to stare death in the face
(Where have you beeen?)
Yeah, but he won't fold
He's been waitin for the end of the road
To have this cold world drop off and swallow him whole
It's a one way trip, he don't plan to return
And as the vessel of his escape out eases into the terminal
Lost, with nothin but a smirk on his face
As he steps off the bus and starts pickin up pace and,
You could see it in the people as he ran past that everyone was wonderin
(Where have you beeen?)
He's almost home, and he can feel it in the cracks of his bones
As he runs up the stairs that pass over the road and,
Without a hesitation stoppin his actions
He leaps from the guardrail and... dives into traffic
Where would you go if could never go home? (go home)
What would you say if they never even asked you? (asked you)
Where would you go if could never go home? (go home)
What would you say if they never even asked you? (asked you)
Where would you go if could never go home? (go home)
What would you say if they never even asked you? (asked you)
Where would you go if could never go home? (go home)
What would you say if they never even asked you? (asked you)
Daddy was a rolling stone
Mama never gave two shits about a broken home
I said...
Daddy was a rolling stone
Mama never gave two shits about a broken home
(Where have you beeen?)
I said...
Daddy was a rolling stone
Mama never gave two shits about a broken home
I said...
Daddy was a rolling stone
Mama never gave two shits

Grieves He Won't Answer Comments
This is a song I play if I have so many emotions to get out. Sadly I used to cut. Hard. To this song. But now it's more of a release of built up anger and sadness in a better way.. if that makes sense. Love old-school Grieves man.
"And you can label him another problem typecast
or stay the hell away from him like everybody else has"
Fuckin love that it's weird being the person people avoid even when you aren't a druggie.
Seriously this song has gotten into my core....
I'm tempted to buy this album with the money I don't have.
Do it it is so worth it

Another night in this black water rain cloud
Kicking through the puddles on his way up to the Greyhound
In his pocket is a letter from his mother, folded up saying...
(Where have you been?)
Yeah, but he won't write back
Left his whole life on the nightstand
Open up his wounds and let em bleed onto the white sand
And you can label him another problem typecast
And stay the hell away from him like everybody else has
And that's exactly why he flees to the road
Another notch in the war club he keeps in his soul
And if you ever saw him swing it you would easily know
And have the worried urge to ask him
(Where have you been?)
Yeah, but he won't answer
Blinking as the headlights pass him
Rip the chills off of his spine and throw them right at you
But sometimes you don't really get what ask for
And life gets so cold and you can never go back home
Where would you go if could never go home? (go home)
What would you say if they never even asked you? (asked you)

Daddy was a rolling stone

Trying to think of reasons to stay as I type this... I feel this song all too well
JaxenB doing better day by day
You guys still around ? and doing Better?? This song is genius & captures that dark that many try to ignore. Grieves does this style too well.
@Jasmine Moon I was contemplating suicide then I seen your comment from 2 years ago of you being on the edge.. then you being better a year later.. giving me hope <3
@Majora’s_Mask1998 it does get better, you will still have your down days but the sun does shine and the colors do come back. I am still here trying to find my way back home, I am just taking the scenic route.
I lost my older sister to suicide. Suicide doesn't stop the pain, but it transfers it to another person! My life has changed drastically since she killed herself and not for the better. If anyone reading this comment wants to commit suicide, just remember how selfish it is, and it won't solve anything. Permanent solution to a temporary problem!
This track has such a Stan by Eminem vibe. Hope that's not taken in an offensive way, if anything take it as a compliment. Love youre music.
IDK why I love this song so much.....
His dad was to rich to give a fuck and his mom didn't give a shit about him that's what it means
+Angel Barajas Rolling stone means his father was never around
"daddy was a rolling stone, mama never gave two shits bout a broken home" fucking perfect man
Loved this, Love all of his stuff!
Saw Grieves and Pepper last night in Ft Lauderdale. He killed it, great performer and his beats are on point!!
Good god, this gives me so many chills. GRIEVES YOU SON OF A BITCH WHY ARE YOU SO FANTASTIC
damn dude i'm sorry to hear that... my dad went to jail when i was 3 for beatin my mom in a closet and going on a drugged out rampage... i'm 17 now and i'm honestly glad i don't have him in my laugh
"A rolling stone gathers no moss" im guessing because he was gone a lot he was never able to gather the moss of a family
so underrated...
the father wasnt there much, either by dead, working or left as a child. its used in a few more like by eminem
not sure what it means but eminem said it too in Mockingbird "papa was a rolling stone mama developed a habit"
Essence of Hip Hop is in the message, the movement, the blessings through the curses... That essence is here. Bless.
Hard age man, hope you're not holding on to too much anger
It is, my dad left me at 4 years old... And now I'm 14.
ruthless.
Old school Grieves is timeless
I'm pretty sure it's also for dad's who leave their kids
When he said "Rip the chills off his spine and throw it right at you" i got chills right then, trippy as fuck
It's a term for someone who refuses to settle down
It's a Temptations song, but the actual song is called "Papa Was A Rolling Stone".
1:50 - 2:01 .... shit hit me so hard
amazing song. shit hits hard
Not a problem man :)

As he runs up the stairs that pass over the road, and without a hesitation & a stop in his actions, he leaps over the guard rail and dives into traffic.
thing is, is this is like 5 years old..... if only i found this when it came out... amazing
He needs to make a music video for this shit
Grieves.
You've Officially Freed the World from the Main Stream Tracks...
