My Boy Builds Houses

[Verse 1]
Hey, how you been?
Heard from some old girl
You build houses in dirt
Hey, what you got?
Any stories now?
That you’ve left and gone

[Verse 2]
Teeth used to gleam
At the brink of your name
People run to hear it
Boys used to hide
If you threatened them
With an inch of life

[Pre-Chorus]
Here, your name
It taints, it taints
I speak, no shame
Your traits, your traits, I say

[Chorus]
My boy builds houses
Such towers in my heart
You wish for his powers
Made grown men stand cowards
And I’m lost to why
I still pledge my allegiance
But my boy builds houses
Builds houses, builds houses, e-yеah-e-yeah

[Verse 3]
Hey, call mе up
I’d just love to talk
Give me ammunition
Brag all our love
Behind veils of anonymity
Nothing’s ever new to me

[Verse 4]
Girls used to pine
Yeah, your sequin smile
Has now become mine
Fights used to break
And you’d be in one
If you’d been in any

[Pre-Chorus - Extended]
Here, your name
It taints, it taints
I speak, no shame
Your traits, your traits
Here, your name
It taints, it taints
I speak, no shame
Your traits, your traits, I say

[Chorus]
My boy builds houses
Such towers in my heart
You wish for his powers
Made grown men stand cowards
And I’m lost to why
I still pledge my allegiance
But my boy builds houses
Builds houses, builds houses, e-yeah-e-yeah

[Chorus]
My boy builds houses
Such towers in my heart
You wish for his powers
Made grown men stand cowards
And I’m lost to why
I still pledge my allegiance
But my boy builds houses
Builds houses, builds houses, e-yeah-e-yeah

[Outro]
Houses, e-yeah-e-yeah
Houses
