Rocco On The Floor

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Punchin' that clock at dawn Forklift hummin' all day long Box tape, steel toe, cold concrete Des Moines on my back, I keep my feet I cut weight, then I cut through Two jobs, one body, what I do In the cage, I come to take At home, I kiss Bresley's face [Rocco] Big Rocco by the door Rottweiler steps, shakes the floor He don't bark, he just knows Reads the room, then he stands close [Pre-Chorus] Bresley smile, belly growin' Hands on the fridge, still goin' I'm tired, but I don't fold Got a new life on the road [Chorus] I keep swingin' for the roof Rocco on the floor Bresley got my little truth We're buildin' somethin' more Des Moines in my bones Can't break what we chose I keep swingin' for the roof Rocco on the floor [Verse 2] Bruises bloom under warehouse light Then I wrap my hands at night Milk crate seat, protein shake Baby kick when I walk in late I know pain, I know rent I know every dollar spent But that crib in the next room Got me ready for the boom [Bresley] Bresley says, "Stay strong" I say, "Baby, won't be long" She laughs, lays her hand on mine Says, "We made it this far, we'll be fine" [Pre-Chorus] Bresley smile, belly growin' Hands on the fridge, still goin' I'm tired, but I don't fold Got a new life on the road [Chorus] I keep swingin' for the roof Rocco on the floor Bresley got my little truth We're buildin' somethin' more Des Moines in my bones Can't break what we chose I keep swingin' for the roof Rocco on the floor [Bridge] If I take a hit, I get up If I lose my breath, I still show up Tiny heartbeat, big old dream Three of us in one hard scene [Chorus] I keep swingin' for the roof Rocco on the floor Bresley got my little truth We're buildin' somethin' more Des Moines in my bones Can't break what we chose I keep swingin' for the roof Rocco on the floor
